alt Hacker NewsIsn't this the opposite of what everyone is saying should happen? That is, lead with open models -- or at least "openness" and don't leave the capabilities in the hands of an elite few? Did they learn nothing from the Hugging Face incident, where HF wasn't even able to use the models to defend itself from OAI's attack?

I think "everyone" is doing heavy lifting here. It's not clear to me at all that a powerful model released with no restrictions would be a net positive. This hinges on the hope that the under paid, under motivated, under staffed and under qualified security teams at many random corps are going to leverage those open models to fix their vulns faster (and better), than highly motivated attackers will use them for offense. I'm not super confident on that.
