Office space meme:

"If y'all could stop calling an LLM "open source" just because they published the weights... that would be great."

Open source means you can recreate the binaries yourself. Neiter Facebook. Nor the devs of deepseek published which training data they used, nor their training algorithm.

Eh, it seems like it fits to me. We casually refer to all manner of data as "open source" even if we lack the ability to specifically recreate it. It might be technically more accurate to say "open data" but we usually don't, so I can't be too mad at these folks for also not.

There's huge deaths of USGS data that's shared as open data that I absolutely cannot ever replicate.

If we're specifically saying that open source means you can recreate the binaries, then data is fundamentally not able to be open source, since it distinctly lacks any form of executable content.

lol, are you claiming data isn't reproducable? XD
