The things that make it not OSI compliant are: 1) an application with more than 700 million monthly active users (i.e. Google, Bing, Amazon, and Apple) require getting a licence 2) some moral restrictions (like criminal acts) I can live with that... ../Dave On Sat, 13 Jan 2024 at 05:39, Evan Leibovitch via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

As noted last evening I am running the open source (but NOT GPL) Llama 2 AI on a Raspberry PI 5.
As discussed at the meeting Tuesday night, Llama 2 is *not* Open Source. It conforms to neither the OSI Open Source Definition nor the FSF Four Freedoms. This post from IBM explains how and why it's not: https://www.ibm.com/topics/llama-2#Is+Llama+2+open+source?
While the license is broadly open, it's not open source or free software in much the same way as the Creative Commons "NC" license is not; it restricts use and requires certain entities to get a paid license.
