Why is Llama 2 Open Source? What is Meta up to?

This episode delves into the ongoing debate of the competitiveness between open-source and closed-source models and the reasons behind Meta's decision to publish Llama2 with a permissive open-source license

We cover:

• How much bigger can closed-sourced models be, compared to open-source?
• Are new competitor foundation models doomed, if Meta enters the game?
• What does “second place” look like, in open source?
• Can open-source datasets compete?
• Will very large open-source models soon become illegal?
