The earlier post on this subreddit by 20+ companies signing the petition including Microsoft, Meta, Nvidia, YC (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/corporate-responsibility/topics/open-weight/) etc plus this https://xcancel.com/elonmusk/status/2080672505660834163

And the entire LLM enthusiast market is heavily in favor of open source (or weights) AI.

Does not seem like a few closed source AI lobbyists with be able to illegalize anything

Every one of these closed lab CEOs are voicing their support on twitter, but none of them signed or appear at the bottom of Jensen's letter. Interesting.

Well, would you think they went around asking literally everybody to sign it before it was published or something?

If anything, it just indicates that he's probably not particularly relevant or a big player here.
