Everything is open source if you're skilled with Ghidra.

We call AI models "open source" if you can download the binary and not the source. Why not programs?

Who's "we"? There's been quite a lot of pushback on this naming scheme from the OSS community, with many preferring the term "open weights".

the weights of a model aren't equivalent to the binary output of source code, no matter how you try to stretch the metaphor.

Binaries and AI models can be inscrutable. They're meant to be interpreted by machines.

We want human readable, comprehensible, reproducible and maintainable sources at minimum when we say open source.
