Didn't both Amodei and Altman called for regulation of open-weight models? Not that long ago on xitter....
replyThey've both been insisting that humanity's survival is contingent on regulation since the start and employ armies of lobbyists to try to shape the policies they want that hold significant sway in their own country. But of course Americans doing this is smart and entrepreneurial...
replyDid you miss the Anthropic and OpenAI blog posts screeching for regulation?
replyYes, now that they are in place they want to put barriers for new entrants.
replyMeh, OpenAI and Anthropic are doing the same. The US shtick is "our models are too powerful, government, please hold them back (and buy 10% of the company)".
replyEdit: forgot, they also call for banning Chinese models and open weights models...
