There are different requirements if the provider falls under “Free and open licence GPAI model providers”
Which is legally defined in that piece of legislation
otherwise companies will get the benefits of “open source” without doing the actual work.
Meta has done a lot for Open source, to their credit. React Native is my preferred framework for mobile development, for example.
Again- I fully acknowledge they are a large evil megacorp but without evil large megacorps we would not have Open Source as we know it today. There are certain realities we need to accept based on the system we live in. Open Source only exists because corporations benefit off of this shared infrastructure.
Our laws should encourage this type of behavior and not restrict it. By limiting the scope, it gives Meta less incentive to open source the code behind their AI models. We want the opposite. We want to incentivize
I agree that we should incentivize open source work, but my worry is that by legitimizing partial open source as “open source”, you’re disincentivizing fully open source work. After all, why put in the effort if you’ll get the same result with way less work?
The incentive you’re asking for is a disincentive against full open source, and I can guarantee you that if the existing “open source” term wasn’t defended by hardliners, there’d be far less open source work in the wild than we have today.
It is defined legally in the EU
