Open Source or Closed Source for AI Development?
The future lies in a balanced approach, taking the best from open-source and closed AI models.
Some of the best technological breakthroughs have been due to the open-source movement, be it the Linux operating system or Apache Web Server software. Open-source AI has to be transparent and an ethic to be powered by the community, which offers enormous advantages. Democratizes development in AI, accelerating innovation, and ensuring the resulting benefits are brought to a wide population.
