"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It is not trained on open source code on Github.
But I can use it to analyze a datasheet and generate a library for an obscure module that I can then upload to Github and contribute to the community.
Apertus is most certainly trained on source code hosted on GitHub. It is laid out here in their technical report:
https://github.com/swiss-ai/apertus-tech-report
It uses a large dataset called TheStack, among others.
That's not random Github accounts or "delicensing" anything. People had to opt IN to be part of "The Stack". Apertus isn't training itself from community code.
I'm tired of arguing with you about this, and you're still wrong. It was opt-out, not opt-in, based initially on a GitHub crawl of 137M repos and 52B files before filtering & dedup.
