Whenever you hear a Western politician talking about banning/regulating open weights models, it’s because a broligarch has his hands inside the politician’s… wallet.
Open weights models – low cost, equally powerful to their closed weights counterparts – are the future of AI, and we see this more every day, not just from China, but from around the world.
This imperils the trillions of dollars investors have poured into leading AI companies, and they’re doing everything they can to protect their sunk costs. Don’t believe their hype.
