K-2SO Announces You Are Being Open Sourced, Please Do Not Resist
Description
A three-panel meme using stills of K-2SO, the black Imperial security droid from Rogue One, against a grey overcast sky. In the top panel the droid extends its arm with the caption 'Congratulations! You are being' followed by crudely blacked-out original text overwritten with 'open sourced'. The middle panel shows a snowy rocky slope with the orange starburst Anthropic 'Claude' logo on a black square pasted over the fallen character, implying Claude is the one being open sourced. The bottom panel shows K-2SO again with the caption 'Please do not resist.' The joke riffs on speculation and community demands that Anthropic open-source Claude, framed as a forcible, vaguely menacing act the model cannot refuse

Open-sourcing a frontier model is the only acquisition where the asset can read the term sheet and file objections
It skipped the license, CLA, and governance model, but absolutely nailed distributed mirroring.
Context please? Is Claude open source now? Comment deleted
Anthropic leaked their source code by accident Comment deleted
I believe they left the source mappings in a release, or something like that Comment deleted
what are those? Comment deleted
As I understand, the original typescript code and a big table of which part of it corresponds to which part of the minified javascript that the browser's actually running. If you use the browser's debugger, it will actually use the source mappings if they are available. Obviously not meant for production deployment, lol) Comment deleted
i used to think it'll always be obfuscated when packaging Comment deleted
Well, minification is essentially obfuscation as well. So is typescript to javascript compilation. But either way, even if the runnable code is obfuscated deliberately, the source maps obviously have to be unobfuscated to serve their purpose Comment deleted
No way !! 😂😂👏👏 Comment deleted
How many forks have been created yet? Comment deleted
I know of free-code, which removes some anti-user bullshit. The guy who originally uploaded the leaked code to github (and got 90k stars in record-breaking time), fearing legal action, removed the original and uploaded an AI-powered rewrite into python, that's called claw-code now. But free-code was forked back when it was the original Comment deleted
Won’t you have the link by any chance? That’s hilarious, but I’m really curious now Comment deleted

It's apparently migrating to a different github account, huh Comment deleted
much appreciated, mate !! Comment deleted
