Some moves are purely altruistic. Some moves are semi-altruistic - they don't harm the company, but help it increase its reputation or even just allows them to offer people ways to help in order to retain talent. (Which is also kind of strategic, but in a different way.)
Also, some things are just mistakes and miscalculations.
Following the analogy : Meta is arming the Open source community with okish (but in comparison to the soviets and Americans shoddy) weapons and push the third position politically.
Amazon meanwhile is basically a neutral arms manufacturer with AWS, and Nvidia owns the patent on "the projectile"
I'm not trying to biting the hand that arms me - so thank you very much Meta and Mister Zuckerberg.
Now someone, somewhere can create this eras version of Linux, hopefully under this eras version of the GPL.
But Meta partnered with Microsoft for Llama 2.
But yes I forced the analogy a bit hard :)
Like what?
