[$] OSI readies controversial Open AI definition The https://opensource.org/ (OSI) has been working on defining https://opensource.org/ai —that is what constitutes an AI system that can be used, studied, modified, and shared for any purpose—for almost two years. Its https://opensource.org/about/board-of-directors will be voting on the https://opensource.org/ai/drafts/the-open-source-ai-definition-1-0-rc2 (OSAID) on Sunday, October 27, with the 1.0 version slated to be published on October 28. It is never possible to please everyone in such an endeavor, and it would be folly to make that a goal. However, a number of prominent figures in the open-source community have voiced concerns that OSI is setting the bar too low with the OSAID—which will undo decades of community work to cajole vendors into adhering to or respecting the original <a href="https://opensource.org/osd" rel="nofollow">Open Source Definition</a> (OSD). https://lwn.net/Articles/995159/
