As I said in the other Llama 2 thread[0], this is Meta doing a traditional textbook "commoditise your compliment". It's a preemptive attack with this particular announcement on Apple and Google. They don't what them own LLMs on portable devices, they want it to be a commodity.
The move from Meta is pretty obvious, they just want to attract the best AI researchers, they know that this generation of AI is not it, and they know that the best AI researchers want to work on open sourced stuff.
Next up: they should make a social media app where each user can customize their profile page and have their favorite music start playing. It would be called YourSpace
