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.

You're right. But I used it specifically because of the open letter calling for open models — or at least for not banning them — which went around recently and represented a very large number of tech and AI companies. Anthropic seemed the only exception.
