Okay but are any AI chatbots really open source? Isn't half the headache with LLMs the fact that there comes a point where it's basically impossible for even the authors to decode the tangled madness of their machine learning?
Yeah but you don't open source the LLM, you open source the training code and the weights and the specs/architecture
what do you think an LLM is? once you've opened the weights, IMO it's pretty open. Once they open the training data, that's pretty damn open. What do you want a gitian reproducible build?
Yes, several are fully open source. I like Mistral
