Comment on Meta's plan to offer free commercial AI models puts pressure on Google, OpenAI

It's not only free as in beer, but free as in libre, open source models.

Let's hope it will play for AI is it played for operating systems with Linux.

Honestly, this is really wonderful news from Meta. I'm sufficiently impressed.

If by it you mean LLaMA 1, then I don't think per the license one can use it for commercial projects. So, it isn't really libre. That said, all indications are that LLaMA 2 would be fully FLOSS.

If you meant OPT, it isn't libre either: https://github.com/facebookresearch/metaseq/blob/main/projec...
