As long as the following remains true, this release ends up a bigger contribution to science at large than most other models trained "behind closed doors":

> Fully open model: open weights + open data + full training details including all data and training recipes

Is a recipe useful if no one likes it?

There are equally open, much more useful models out there: https://artificialanalysis.ai/?models=nvidia-nemotron-3-ultr...

Nemotron still has partial closed data. Having multiple models to chose from is a good thing
