From: LTX - Zee Farbman (Co-founder and CEO of Lightricks) Why Big Tech Is Abandoning Open Source (And Why We Are Doubling Down) Last week, Alibaba's Qwen team lost its technical lead and two senior researchers just 24 hours after shipping their latest model. The departure triggered immediate industry speculation. People are asking if the flagship Qwen models are going closed. When you combine those rumors with Google and OpenAI strictly guarding their own walled gardens, a very specific narrative starts to form for investors.
