The idea that Meta is frantically running around trying to "wipe" these weights is ridiculous. They're either doing this to disclaim liability in case a new law imposes it retroactively, or they are trying to create uncertainty around its use to dissuade serious US competitors from using it for their own products.
> but I also suspect (and cannot prove) that various organs of the US state (CIA, NSA, FBI) are also trying.
I would be very surprised if they were given that it would only handicap the US while leaving other countries to advance unabated. Again, the only real thing facebook did here is show that we can have smaller models that are competitive to larger ones. The information to build and train these models is public. The code to do this is public. The capability to this so is public.
The cat is out of the bag and humanity is better off for it. What humanity needs to do now is figure out how best to adapt.
- 1attice 4y agoThe tracker for that torrent was taken offline by Meta. There was a story about it on HN a while ago. Don't believe me? Try to torrent. Do homework. SMH.
