Every time you declare open-source AI dead another team rise up

like a Whac-A-Mole.

Intelligence will be commoditized!

The remaining moat will be the quality of the product and how it integrate with co-factors. That’s were billions dollars AI companies will be built.

For anyone interested in fine-tuning or aligning LLMs, I’m running this free and open course called smol course. It’s not a big deal, it’s just smol.

Even the best intentions can mess things up, but Daniel has done the right thing now and reversed all his actions. He certainly doesn't deserve to be bullied for it.

>> let's get back to building a fair and open solution to the problems big tech has caused.
I've removed the Bluesky data from the repo. While I wanted to support tool development for the platform, I recognize this approach violated principles of transparency and consent in data collection. I apologize for this mistake.
First dataset for the new @huggingface.bsky.social @bsky.app community organisation: one-million-bluesky-posts 🦋

📊 1M public posts from Bluesky's firehose API
🔍 Includes text, metadata, and language predictions
🔬 Perfect to experiment with using ML for Bluesky 🤗
