I disagree. The file I linked to, model.py, contains the Llama 3 model itself.

You can use that model with open data to train it from scratch yourself. Or you can load Meta’s open weights and have a working LLM.

Yeah a lot of people here seem to not understand that PyTorch really does make model definitions that simple, and that has everything you need to resume back-propagation. Not to mention PyTorch itself being open-sourced by Meta.

That said the LLama-license doesn't meet strict definitions of OS, and I bet they have internal tooling for datacenter-scale training that's not represented here.

That makes it source available ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-available_software ), not open source

Source available means you can see the source, but not modify it. This is kinda the opposite, you can modify the model, but you don't see all the details of its creation.
