Early days but this looks like an interesting solution to democratize the inference of large models.
This is good to see funds being raised for those projects. Lets hope they get madly successful.
I think this is a very welcome protest at FOSDEM. This keynote would be a shame on the conference. Unfortunately I already planned to not attend FOSDEM this year, but if you are: please participate to this sit-in.
Very good demonstration of why you want open source code on your projects. I often end up doing this kind of forensics myself, this is truly powerful.
The WordPress is still unfolding... I wouldn't be surprised if it ends with a fork.
Definitely a good move, especially when we see the behavior of the tech moguls...
Very good background information on the latest attempt at discrediting Wikipedia.
Or why making a dent in the enterprise software space is hard for FOSS... The good news is, it'd require setting up whole ecosystems of services.
Nice move from the home assistant people. Such open and privacy respecting hardware is needed.
Definitely a good list of advices for first time contributors.
A good question, it is somewhat of a grey area at times. We need to come up with better answers.
Interesting report, some findings are kind of unexpected. It's interesting to see how much npm and maven dominate the supply chain. Clearly there's a need for a global scheme to identify dependencies, hopefully we'll get there.
An important white paper which probably went unnoticed. It gives a nice overview of the strategies one can build around Open Source components.
This is an excellent milestone reached for the OpenWrt project. Easily available hardware is a must. It's rather cheap too.
Nice to see open hardware for VR hitting such a price point.
This is an interesting and balanced view. Also nice to see that local inference is really getting closer. This is mostly a UI problem now.
Like me, you find the Open Source AI Definition weak on the training data information side? You'd be right and there's a reason for it... it's probably hiding quite some open washing for the larger models. This is a good explanation of the motives and consequences.
Nice initiative from the OSI. It is timely, such a definition was surely needed. The data information part seems fairly weak though... for sure you could make a system which doesn't respect the four freedoms that way.
Looks like we properly live by the "simple by default, powerful when needed" tagline. Now there are also challenges, this article gives a nice balanced view.
Yes, the governance of Open Source projects can be tricky. This is part of the job though, and properly embraced we all go further. An example from the Wayland space.
