What do you think about the "Opensource AI" Definition v0.0.9 from OSI? "An Open Source AI is an AI system made available under terms and in a way that grant the freedoms[1] to: - Use the system for any purpose and without having to ask for permission. - Study how the system works and inspect its components. - Modify the system for any purpose, including to change its output. - Share the system for others to use with or without modifications, for any purpose. These freedoms apply both to a fully functional system and to discrete elements of a system. A precondition to exercising these freedoms is to have access to the preferred form to make modifications to the system."

How are large professional services organisation deploying GPT4 (or similar LLMs) within their own organisation for internal use, particularly when using sensitive/confidential/PII data?

For example we're a UK based accountancy firm so have created our own internal app based on Microsoft's Open AI GPT4 model deployed to our private Azure hosting. We have built a custom app designed to "preprogramme" personas, i.e. pre-created prompts, for different areas of the profession, so internal users can have GPT4 act in different ways without prior knowledge of prompt engineering.

I would be interested to see how others are building or buying solutions, particularly those based in EU/UK who can't use OpenAI/ChatGPT for with customer/confidential information.
