Is it even really software, or just a datablob with a dedicated interpreter?
Isn't all software just data plus algorithms?
Yes. The algorithms are hard wired into the processor, and the rest is all data.
Well, yes, but usually it's the code that's the main deal, and the part that's open, and the data is what you do with it. Here, the training weights seem to be "it", so to speak.
The weights are the (rough) equivalent of a binary. If anything this is shareware more than it’s open source.
