My controversial request:

#OSI helps craft a license that is tightly worded on preventing hyperscalers from monopolizing revenues in a FOSS ecosystem.

Make a good, tight definition so there is clarity and consensus on what the license means and restricts.

But more debate about what is and is not open source is actually hurting a lot of people who create and use Open Source.

Maybe it is not #OSI, but some respected entity should step in here.

"The world of AI is at an important crossroads. There are two paths forward: one where highly regulated proprietary code, models, and datasets are going to prevail, or one where Open Source dominates." - ClearlyDefined Community Manager Nick Vidal

Here at the #HeavyBit open source event. Love the dog patch EXCEPT for the parking. Excited to hear the talks. Feels off to be at a #foss event in SF and recognize nobody.

For the event, open source only means #OSI approved license

We are looking forward to #OSSummit! Make sure you stop by the #OSI booth to say hello and for some celebratory 25th anniversary cupcakes.

Please join us in welcoming Giulia to the #OSI community! Giulia will review the list of licenses and add all the missing metadata. Read more about this project in our recent blog. #OpenSource #OSS

My takeaway from Brussels to the Bay panels on #AI is that we probably don't need new regulation but a thorough review of existing ones https://blog.opensource.org/things-i-learned-at-brussels-to-the-bay-ai-governance-in-the-world/ #Ai #Osi #OpenSource
