Because Meta will harvest and profit of the data.

If we're talking about something like LLaMA (i.e. people can run the model locally) then it's impossible to do that directly. A model can't collect data, metrics, phone home, anything like that by itself. The article sounds like it's talking about that kind of thing, not providing a service that people can access a model through (in the lines of ChatGPT).

This was the initial strategy of OpenAI and the reason for which it was created: put pressure on Facebook and Google. It worked in its own pervese way, I would say.

Is that the similar thing as llama they published before?
Edit: typo

LLaMA is only free for personal use. Also the actual model got leaked a week after the paper.

IIRC it was only supposed to be for research purposes. Individuals wouldn't have been eligible.
