On China and open source, a big reason I expect open sourcing to stop being done is because the PR risks from potential misuse of models that are, for example capable enough to do bioterror at mass scales and replace virologists is huge, and unless we can figure out a way to prevent safeguards from being removed by open-sourcing the model, which they won’t be, this means companies/nations will have huge PR risks from trying to open-source AI models past a certain level of capabilities:
And…they’re more concerned about the PR risk than the actual bioterror? What planet is this? Oh. Right.
