PS: you can run this locally on your mac with this one-liner:

pip install mlx-lm

mlx_lm.generate --model mlx-community/Apertus-8B-Instruct-2509-8bit --prompt "who are you?"

Hi, your "truly open" model is "gated" on Huggingface, restricting downloads unless we agree to "hold you harmless" and share our contact info. Can you fix this please, either by removing the restriction, or removing the "truly open" claim?

We hear you, nevertheless this is one of the very few open-weights and open-data LLMs, and the license is still very permissive (compare for example to Llama). Personally of course I'd like to remove the additional click, but the universities also have a say in this.

Ok so why keep calling it "truly open" then? It's an obvious lie and nobody is forcing you to say it. It benefits your marketing, sure, but it harms everyone else by diluting the meaning of the term "open". So stop doing that please.
