Simon Willison: The Future of Open Source and AI (via) I sat down a few weeks ago to record this conversation with Logan Kilpatrick and Nolan Fortman for their podcast Around the Prompt. The episode is available on YouTube and Apple Podcasts and other platforms.
We talked about a whole bunch of different topics, including the ongoing debate around the term "open source" when applied to LLMs and my thoughts on why I don't feel threatened by LLMs as a software engineer (at 40m05s).
