The open source licensing war is over

Deploying the AI at "scale" can be done off the cloud by allowing it to be run on local instances. This is demonstrably possible and practical, but usually only with open source (ish) implementations.

I thought it was to empower the sovereign end-user, to enable freedom in a world increasingly ruled by computers.

*By pure coincidence, neither "free" nor "libre" appear anywhere in that article.
