Open Weight vs. Open Source, Explained Simply

from The Artificial Intelligence Show Podcast · host ferty

Everyone keeps using \"open weight\" and \"open source\" interchangeably, including the tech leaders themselves, and the difference is the whole ballgame right now. Paul Roetzer breaks it down with a car analogy: a closed model is renting a car, open weights is owning the car, and open source is getting the CAD files and manufacturing specs too. A quick, clear framing you can reuse in any meeting this week.
