Open Weights Aren’t Open Source: What AI Licences Really Allow

Downloading a model’s parameters and calling it open source is one of the industry’s most persistent conflations. Almost everything sold as “open AI” is really open weights: a company publishes the learned parameters that let the model run, wrapped in a licence that is either genuinely permissive or stuffed with conditions. True open source, as … Read more

MIT Study Finds Human-Like Modular Architecture in Six AI Models

A team at MIT has identified a striking parallel between artificial intelligence and biology: six large language models exhibit the same modular organization of four cognitive domains that neuroscientists have described in the human brain. The study, authored by Pengrui Han, Jacob Andreas, Evelina Fedorenko, and Andrea Gregor de Varda, was submitted to arXiv on … Read more
