I think both can be true: AI development must be slowed, but also question the motives of those in the lead given the stark benefits it gives those in the lead.

I'll get down-voted again by those who have a stake in this race, but I believe the long-term freedom and benefit for "everyone" will come from being able to run models locally.
- PoignardAzur 24d agoI agree that we need more nuanced complex takes on the situation... But also, if the problem is that AIs are starting to hack random website against their owners' instructions, open-weights AI isn't going to help that much.
- nobodyandproud 23d agoRight now, only a few labs have the resources to run frontier-level capabilities or large, open-weight LLMs that are effectively frontier. Better attention can be given to open-weight LLMs that can be run locally and to help defend against attacks, filter against questionable content, etc. and without giving up privacy; but there’s apparently little to no incentive beyond the next great coding agent like Qwen 3.8.
