[$] 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).
