Why is Meta the wildcard? Meta has the largest track record of open sourcing everything. From hardware (OpenCompute suite of releases ) to pretty much all software ( HHVM, Hack, Buck, etc etc ) that would benefit wider use.

Even Meta's ML research has a history of open sourcing everything, hello PyTorch. So Llama is just a continuation

Only because all their open source didn't cost them billions to produce. Making a foundation model is at least a billion dollars in just hardware and power.

But you're right they do have a good history of open source, and they should get credit for that.
