Office space meme:

“If y’all could stop calling an LLM “open source” just because they published the weights… that would be great.”

    What most people understand as deepseek is the app thauses their trained model, not the running or training engines.

    This post mentions open source, not open source code, big distinction. The source of a trained model is part the training engine, and way bigger part the input data. We only have access to a fraction of that “source”. So the service isn’t open source.

    Just to make clear, no LLM service is open source currently.
