In the open source space, the Nemotron models from nVidia are quite real. Including a Nemotron Ultra variety meant to be large enough for near-SOTA.
replyNvidia not doing it out of goodness of their hearts and love to open source. If at anynpoint their CUDA vendor lock-in moat will faik because Intel or AMD manage to get working software they'll return to keep everything locked and proprietary ASAP.
replyBasically everything Nvidia does in open source is there to make sure their proprietary stack have a good moat and no competitor stack can catch up.
Strongly disagree: https://build.nvidia.com/models
replyTheir license terms are also incredibly generous and allow commercial use, modification, etc, at no cost.
How soon do you think this generosity end if AMD or Intel or some chinese competitor would be able to provide price competetive hardware?
