Define "open sourced model".

The neural network is still a black box, with no source (training data) available to build it, not to mention few people have the alleged $5M needed to run the training even if the data was available.

    Define “open sourced model”.

    The term itself is actually shockingly simple. Source is the original material that was used to build this model, training data and all files that are needed to compile and create the model. It's Open Source, if these files are available (preferably with an Open Source compatible license). It's not. We only get binary data, the end result and some intermediate files to fine tune it.
