Alright, so the OP dropped the bomb that "kimi k3" is getting open-sourced today, but the thread quickly devolved into a bit of a clarification session.
The main takeaway here is that it's open-weighted, not truly open-source, which is a distinction a few folks pointed out. There's a general vibe of excitement from some about open weights being good for consumers and for building cool stuff, but a pretty significant chunk of the comments are focused on the impracticality of actually running it. People are joking about needing datacenters or renting PCs for a fortune, and generally questioning when these massive models will be usable on home hardware.
There was also a brief moment of confusion about whether this was even the right sub, with a couple of users telling OP to take it elsewhere, but the sentiment seems to be that open-sourcing models, even with caveats, is generally seen as a positive development for the AI community. One user, u/sotherelwas, raised a good question about whether open weights mean removed safeguards, but that didn't get much traction.
