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.
you're right, in fact there are some open source projects that simply release the source code for each release of the program and develop in private, or simply not accept contributions while having their code repository and development process publicly available. (for example, sqlite)
however, there's a lot more open source projects that are "made by the community" by accepting contributions from people outside the development team. the main example would ofc be the linux kernel. the changes proposed don't get immediately included, they're reviewed and gets merged later on.
