We have plenty of alternatives like Mistral, Gemini, qwen, deepseek...

But none of them is fully open source that you know data they've been trained with, right? Maybe only K2 ?

I thought deepseek was open source. Guess not

You can download the model, you do not have the source of the model.

It is similar to releasing a compiled software app as shareware vs publishing your source code.

Just the weights, training it is another story.

Better than others but not true "open source"
