Sing it with me, kids!

(To the tune of "If You're Happy And You Know It".)

Verse 1:

  • ๐ŸŽถ Llama's license isn't Open Source ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ Llama's license isn't Open Source ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ They let you download weights ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ But they're liars with bald face(s) ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ When they say Llama's license is Open Source ๐ŸŽถ

Verse 2:

  • ๐ŸŽถ Be skeptical when news says "Open Source" ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ Be skeptical when news says "Open Source" ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ When the article you're reading ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ Says "Open Source" it may be misleading ๐ŸŽถ
  • ๐ŸŽถ So always check if the actual license is Open Source ๐ŸŽถ

(And I wouldn't be surprised if Apple's scrapped "plan" to "Open Source" its AI was actually just a plan to offer the weights for royalty-free download.)
