Guys. Guys, you got it all wrong. We don't want to ban open-weight models!

We just want to ban the competition guys! Very different.

The ridiculous anthropic/openai strategy of selling shovels at a loss in a gold rush isn't going to play out, and the hilarious thing is that these AI companies are going to create tons of value and _capture none of it_.

Their only path to profitability is if they get to capture it and they're going to do everything to do so. Put it this way: *all the blog posts that Anthropic and OpenAI are putting out are DESIGNED to scare you so that you let them capture the market*.

...and "distillation attacks" (hilarious framing of "saving the output of our models")... Whatever.
