#Meta says that its #Llama #AI tools are "the best #OpenSource models of their class, period."

From @kylelwiggers: "There’s only one problem: the Llama…models aren’t really “open source”… Open source implies that devs can use the models how they choose…But…Meta has imposed certain licensing restrictions…Llama models can’t be used to train other models. And app developers with over 700M monthly users must request a special license from Meta."
