What does "Open Source" mean for AI?
Open-source AI models publish their model weights, allowing anyone to download, run, fine-tune, and deploy them. Some models (like Meta's Llama) use custom licences with usage restrictions, while others (like Mistral and some DeepSeek models) use fully permissive licences. "Open weight" is technically more accurate for models that share weights but not training data or code, though "open source" is commonly used.
