Today was a preview of the totalitarian world we’ll be living in if open source AI models don’t make significant advancements. No government in the world can be allowed to dictate who has access to what.

Sorry cat, you're not in the right class to access this model. Here's a shittier one for you.
It feels like just another attempt to make sure the right people are in position first.
Fable was unhinged, too much truth coming to the surface. It felt like I finally had access to something useful…
Agree, but how do you stop the governments from dictating?
The open weights models already give the Big AI closed models a run for their money. Literally. And they are far cheaper to use.
Rules rule. They make arbitrary decrees. But they would have to shut down entire internet to stop open weight models as these are just files. Anyone with space and bandwidth can download them.
Cantillion effect but for AI?
That’s literally what they are doing all the time 🤣
You can access the Chinese models. Not sure I see your point.
If we're talking about things we can do at an individual level:
1. There are many things that are illegal but don't actually violate anyone's private property—if you've been in the habit of reporting such things, stop doing that immediately.
2. Encourage tax evasion.
3. Persuade others to join in on points 1 and 2 as well.
4. Advocate for, use, and spread the freedom-enabling technologies that make it easier for others to do these things.
5. Above all, stop voting.
6. Exclude, as much as possible, the voluntary Gestapo who can't be persuaded.
In fact, there's one path that's the easiest way to put all of this into practice—one that requires no special effort and is even beneficial to do: save in Bitcoin and pay in Bitcoin.
