garrytan · x · 2026-07-26
- Garry Tan reposts a sharp exchange about whether a company can claim to “support open source” while refusing to open-source its own models.
- The quoted post argues that spending tens of millions on lobbying and campaigning against open-source work is a real problem, not something that can be offset by rhetorical support.
- The image is a comic about pushing through exhaustion; it serves as the visual context for the argument, not additional factual content.
