The article discusses the advantages of open source AI software over commercial alternatives, particularly in terms of cost and data security. Open source AI allows users to freely download, analyze, and run models on their hardware without relying on cloud services, which often incur costs based on usage. In contrast to subscription-based commercial models, running open source AI locally eliminates the risk of data leakage and provides cost savings. The licensing for open source models generally allows more flexibility compared to commercial software despite some usage restrictions.
Open source AI allows developers to download, inspect, and run AI models locally, ensuring no data leaks and avoiding cloud-related costs.
Unlike commercial AI, open source models can be installed without incurring fees tied to usage or cloud infrastructure.
