Asleep-Pilot-4142 · reddit · 2026-08-06
Ant Group's research lab, inclusionAI, released the Ling-3.0-flash model on Aug 4 under a pure MIT license, avoiding the bespoke "community licenses" with revenue caps or usage carve-outs.
- Architecture: 124B total parameters with 5.1B active parameters (MoE).
- Availability: Weights are open-sourced on Hugging Face and ModelScope, with a free tier available on OpenRouter.
The author argues they would prefer a mediocre model under MIT over a good model restricted by a lawyer-drafted license.
