And consequently the USA is going to seriously lag behind the rest of the world in AI technology, because their companies can’t work with the most advanced open source LLM.
NAL, but done a lot of work with software licensing. If the source and model are all licensed under MIT, then Deepseek has allowed anyone else to copy, sell, etc. the software.
