Doesn't big companies try open models. Microsoft was testing deepseek.

Everyone is. Open weight and source is the way to go in my opinion.

[–] mecen@lemmy.ca 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

But I bet next they will close it after gaining bigger foothold. I wonder how would you prevent this.

[–] eicker@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I don’t think open-weight models can be prevented, as ‘everyone’ knows how distillation works these days and, clearly, no one can do anything to stop it.

No turn deepseek and others to proprietary models

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Whatever was open will remain open, even if newer change the license.

Yes, but expertise is not there and when they will lead in ai they will turn it into proprietary software. Afterwards no-one will know how to develop it further.

At least I think so.
