Open-sourcing the weights means others can directly load and use them or fine-tune them, but it does not include the training data, training methods, or distributed training framework.

UnverifiedOpen weights mean others can load, run inference on, fine-tune or distill the model, but they cannot directly replicate the distributed strategy, data cleaning pipeline, alignment methods and hardware scheduling experience in the training pipeline.80% similarVerifiedOpen weights differ from fully open source: the former makes model parameters public but does not necessarily disclose training data and complete training code.79% similarUnverifiedChoosing to teach around open-source models rather than closed-source APIs means that learners' skills are not locked into a single vendor and can be freely deployed locally or on private servers.79% similarUnverifiedThe factors that determine the upper limit of model capabilities are often training compute and data quality, both of which are difficult to share through simple open-sourcing77% similarUnverifiedThe limitation of formal benchmarks is that their questions are fixed, data may have leaked into the training set, and high scores do not necessarily mean a good user experience.76% similar
