Because the average person is not building Linux from scratch nor would they know how to

The average person wouldn't be building an open source LLM either. I don't think I follow. I was just saying that your comparison wasn't going to hit correctly at all due to how easy it actually is to build Linux and a full Linux distribution.

Yeah that's why I'm saying:

Do you build your own Linux from scratch? If so why would you assume you can build an LLM from scratch?

The OP is basically saying it's not really open source unless I can personally build it! Which I am saying I don't think is a requirement of open source software (your personal ability to compile software does not negate from it it's open sourceness)

tbh I wouldn't have an idea on how to build either, they are way above my skill level, i have no idea how to make a linux distro either, but i'm certain most are open source

Today, we’re launching Unsloth Studio (Beta): an open-source, no-code web UI for training, running and exporting open models in one unified local interface.

This was only recently released, maybe in the future we'll have training material uber compressed down in an open source format that anyone with the skill and knowledge can use and different 'distro' releases of LLM's, we already have tons of smaller models especially from European Universities and others

The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (JU) provides access to the computing time and support services offered by the EuroHPC AI Factories. The AI Factories are open to European users from various sectors, including industry, research, academia and public authorities.

We are only like 3-4 years into AI going mainstream if that, afaik the heat death of the universe is at least 1000 years away, we have lots of time to work and improve on them, I can only wonder where they will be at in 100 years, so I try not to make any damning facebook boomer tier statements about the future
