      neural network weights are just files, collections of numbers forming matrices; how is a partially open collection of weights of any use

      the weights are open

        Since there is a user acceptance policy that restricts what you can do with the model that might be considered “partially” open.

        Yeah you can see the weights, but it seems you are limited on what you can do with the weights. How we’ve gotten to the point you can protect these random numbers that I’ve shared with you through a UA is beyond me.
