#Debian classify the kind of #AI systems that the #OSI's #OSAID defines as #opensource, as #ToxicCandy: https://salsa.debian.org/deeplearning-team/ml-policy/-/blob/master/ML-Policy.rst

Without training data you cannot ecercise the freedom to study a #ML system and your ability to modify it is severely limited to fine tuning.

Which is like to say that windows is open source because you can tweak the registry.

For these reasons some open source developers are already moving beyond OSI: https://opensourcedeclaration.org

You are welcome to join!

It's not just matter of securing the #OSD, but to update it with a truly open process, with all developers, artists, musicians, data scientists... who contribute their time and valuable skills to open source: https://opensourcedefinition.org/wip/

A statement from the community in support of the Open Source Definition (OSD) version 1.9

^{Community Commitment to Open Source Definition}

Wow!

It's impressive how "open" is @OpenSource!

I've been silenced on #OSI forum for ten days after posting https://discuss.opensource.org/t/privacy-or-real-data-transparency-a-false-dichotomy/661.

Now I'm back... and guess what?

I'm too dangerous to #OpenWashing.

🤷‍♂️

TIL that a #BlackBox #AI can be defined as #OpenSource.

Granting the “freedom to fine tune” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source AI just like granting the “freedom to configure” cannot be enough to qualify as Open Source Software.

Yet, for #OSI it's enough.

And you can't provide effective solutions to the problem they pretend to see into making training data available.

Or you will be silenced.

Copyright law makes a case for requiring data information rather than open datasets for Open Source AI

When we look at applying Open Source principles to the subject of AI, copyright law comes into play, especially for the topic of training data access.
