Yep. Demand open source approve licenses for LLM weights.

The Chinese apache 2.0 models might be censored, but at least they can’t sue you in the US for finding the censorship line.

OTOH, the US models are definitely censored, per TFA, and they’re making vague legal threats against anyone that encounters the censored edge of the model.

How would you solve, for instance, the problem in which AI models are capable of helping the average person build viruses (computer or human)?

"YOLO" is not a reasonable answer here.

I am a massive advocate of Open Source, and have been for 25+ years. These things should not exist, open or otherwise.

the base models released to the public are not censored. censorship happens with another model, that isn't released
