I think this a good example of the true power of open source and open research to accelerate technological advancement. My suggestion for projects: make it as easy and modular as possible so the maximum number of improvements can be made in parallel.
It’s really interesting seeing how fast the community can iterate and improve the models.
And it’s really frustrating seeing how some of the companies that benefit the most from open source projects and research, choose to make their products closed-source for profit, at the expense of societal improvement.
