+The Open-Source Initiative (<abbr>OSI</abbr>) is planning to form a definition of "Open Artificial Intelligence" (not to be confused with OpenAI, a company selling proprietary autocomplete software whose technical details only grow less open with each iteration). Unfortunately, odds of the definition requiring the release of training data are slim: [the OSI's executive director isn't keen on the idea](https://social.opensource.org/@ed/110749197935118988) himself.
+
+I see libre/open-source software as a means to reduce dependence on a vendor, and mitigate the risk of [user domestication]({{<relref "/posts/whatsapp-and-the-domestication-of-users.md">}}). As long as training data is out of the community's reach, it's impossible for the vendor to be replaced. Yes, it's possible to customize or re-train the model, but the vendor remains in control of its future development.
+
+Recent decades have tested the effectiveness of liberating source code as a defense against user domestication, [as I explain in another blog post]({{<relref "/posts/keeping-platforms-open.md">}}). But to re-define Open Source to allow labelling a model that is impossible to competitively fork would be to miss the whole value of FOSS in my eyes: to allow users to own not just their tools, but those tools' futures.
