I want a hyperscaler LLM I can fine tune and neuter. Not a platform or product. Raw weights hooked up to pure tools.
This era of locked hyperscaler dominance needs to end.
If a third tier LLM company made their weights available and they were within 80% of Opus, and they forced you to use their platform to deploy or license if you ran elsewhere, I'd be fine with that. As long as you can access and download the full raw weights and lobotomize as you see fit.
Yeah, same. So long as they give me everything and cannot enforce their license I don’t mind if they require a license. Ideally the weights should be available even if I only ever run inference once (or perhaps no times). I’m willing to pay 0.99€ for this - lifetime of course.
