"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

That's not how open source works. In open source software anyone can submit a PR.
Often yes, but not necessarily. The GPL requires you to distribute the source code. But I'm not aware of any requirements to accept changes from anyone else.
Nowhere did OP say
Let me clarify: I did not mean 'accecpt' as in 'accept and merge changes into the code', but as 'accept mail at this address'.
Literally anyone can submit any changes to any software then
You're obviously misunderstanding what's being said
No, I don't think I am.
There is nothing about open-source software that says you have to allow people to send you changes (mind you, I'm not saying accept. There's literally no reason you need to have an accessible email or anything comparable). If anyone can submit changes to open-source software, they can also submit changes to anything else, because what is stopping them?
