Do the models you use have an AI bill of materials? | CIQ’s Gregory Kurtzer

About this episode

Most companies control the prompts they send to a model, but not what went into it. That’s the gap CIQ founder and CEO Gregory Kurtzer, who set up the community that built Rocky Linux, wants an AI bill of materials to close. This week on Dev Interrupted, he joins Andrew to make the case for OpenWALDO, a community-backed corpus of AI training data built on open weights, artifacts, licenses, data and origins. Greg explains why open weights alone don’t make a model open source, and why a model trained on copyleft code raises a licensing question nobody has litigated. They close the conversation on why the community side of open source matters more than ever now that AI lets more people contribute.
