Ok, I actually agree with this. If there is no expected revenue there is not enough of an incentive to train extremely large models, so Decel. At same time, if there's only closed models, then the model makers tend to collapse to an oligopoly, which is Decel. A balancing act.

@KrishanuAR I think open-weight is basically as diffusion-accelerationist as closed (maybe slightly more on the margin), but considerably development-decelerationist due to raising ai hyper scale cost of capital. By the way, I don’t ascribe moral or ethical valence to these terms; I’m being

There is a world outside the US and many of us would like to not be forced to use models that are developed by authoritarian dictatorships, but in western liberal democracies.

The leading AI has already forked into two options. A: Closed source American that costs $26-56 per 1MM tokens. B: Open weight Chinese that costs $0.50-1 per 1MM tokens. If you force American companies to spend 50-100x more than their competitors abroad here is what will

Stop pandering to emotions with this garble. You’re usually really good, but this makes no sense at all - it just shows you don’t understand how technology works. Happy to help you understand if you’d like me too. DM’s open.

And for anyone who thinks the idea of a corrupt administrative cadre is a conspiracy theory - enjoy this mindbender: x.com/QuantumGuard17…

@mpawlo @bjornjeffery Trust in the administrative cadre is the fault point of that thinking. This authority would be the perfect grounds for regulatory capture. They’re all rubbing their hands at the technologists faithful thinking right now. … doubt this is the path that serves us well.

Why is it that the smartest technologists are often times the most naive regarding the corruption of the political cadre. Agreeing to this proposal lays the perfect groundwork for systematic regulatory capture by the administrative caste. While I agree with the problem, this solution is the simplest to weaponise. No thanks.

I think that hiding these articles behind logins and pay walls is part of the agenda - if they have less people who are not already part of their tribe scrutinise their message that is all intended and good. Rally the supporters, hide from the test. 1930’s Germany style. Couldn’t reach the article. Assuming I know the message. 🤷🏼‍♂️
