    This is BS: the open weight models release not only the model, also papers that explain the iprovements for other to use + often datasets or even “world models” to train them.
    Ant and GPT keep saying that all they do is distilling: it’s simply not true. It that is true why don’t they distill the smaller / cheaper open weights models and make even smaller / cheaper version that they can compete with?

      False. They’re open weight not open source. They do not release the underlying training data, training methodologies, etc.

      And to your last point, that’s a business decision. The companies make more money with closed weight frontier powerful models for enterprise and governments. Distilling their own models undercuts their margins and cannibalizes their tip tier models.

      But, Anthropic has Haiku while OpenAI is coming out with their Luna set of models. But even closer to what you’re asking, Google has Gemma family of open weight models distilled from Gemini. They just released Gemma 4

      @daShadoSage You really can’t read, can you?

      ​@eaman11 You really can’t articulate a sound rebuttal, can you? So, immediate knee jerk reaction is emotional. Your open questions were answered. If you don’t like the answers, that’s on you. It’s why you wouldn’t get hired in the space.

      @daShadoSage Answer to what?
      You didn’t even address my original post: who mentioned open source?
      And who is “they”? NVIDIA? Mistral? Deepseek?

      ​@eaman11 Did you not read your own statements and questions?​ You asked “It that is true why don’t they distill the smaller / cheaper weights models and make even smaller / cheaper open weights models and make even smaller / cheaper version that they can compete with?”

      So, you’re the one that asked about “open weight” directly. I replied.

      And I said who… did you not click “Read more” to make it to the end of my comment? I specifically named Anthropic, Google (Alphabet), and OpenAI. I didn’t bother to mention others including Nvidia’s Nemotron who now has 3 classes of open weight models including the recently released Ultra. I thought my answer was sufficient to answer your open question.

    Is she not suppose to be bias?
