old school opensource, which is a bit surprising from meta. I wonder how they managed to square that with legal. Someone must have been very good friends with Zuck.

The worst offender is AMZ, all the rest big tech are pretty open-source friendly.

Aren't you a cheeky lad? Metea turned out lots of open-source database systems:

* RocksDB

* Hive

* Presto

* Cassandra

* Velox

I should be more precise:

Getting anything that could produce, look like, or smell anything like misinformation out of meta is very hard (for good reason!)

My friends have had repeated push back for various papers because they are ML based and could be in the same room as something that could possible be used by miscreants.

And here we have a LLM that can spit out all sorts of things that are misinformation like.

If their department tried to launch something like Galactica they would have been slapped down and told to think again about what they were doing in life.
