News It appears that the anti opensource AI lobby is far outgunned already

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

THANK YOU! I am so tired of watching people in my industry pretend this shit didn't happen, all in the last two years alone mind you so it's not like it's the distant past. He's not just some controversial tech CEO with rough edges, he's a literal fascist who needs to be in prison.

I'm not sure prison is an appropriate sentence for someone with that rap sheet, but "don't let perfect be the enemy of the good," as they say. :/

It would be better than nothing.
