   We have an official open-source AI definition now, but the fight is far from over https://zdnet.com/article/we-have-an-official-open-source-ai-definition-now-but-the-fight-is-far-from-over/ by @sjvn
   
   Yes, we have an #opensource #AI definition. What we don't have is an agreement about it.

     @sjvn It's also an "official" definition we should insist gets a) actually defined, b) stronger.

     I'm honestly a bit disappointed in OSI and have ... suspicions.

     You're write-up is much better than mine, but I think "idealists" as a term already implies a judgment of the position. Given that the group includes a lead from *AWS*, I think that's a pretty grounded-in-the-industry take on it too.

     @larsmb It's an argument as old as free software (idealists) vs. open-source (pragmatists). I see this, in some ways, as the next step in a very old argument. That said, it's far more than just that.

     @sjvn Yes and no; I think it's conceding even more ground, and undermines those "Four Freedoms" that even the already "pragmatic" Open Source allowed for.

     In the light of impact this might have on regulatory compliance and/or keeping strong evidence of, uh, contentious data sources hidden away, ... indeed, far more.

     OSI falls short of their proclaimed goals here.
