Interesting that nobody from Meta has signed this (tried searching for FAIR, Meta, Facebook) AND the fact that it seems to me that they're the ones releasing open code and model weights publicly (non commercial license though).
Also, judging by the comments here, perhaps people here would be less distrustful if the companies displayed more "skin in the game". For e.g: pledging to give up profiting from AI or committing all research to government labs (Maybe people can suggest better examples). Right now, it's not clear what the consequence of establishing the threat of AI as equivalent to nuclear war/pandemics would be. Would it later end up giving a powerful moat to these companies than they otherwise would have? Perhaps a lot of people are not comfortable with that outcome.
