Ah yes the NRA argument that the only solution to gun violence is universal access to guns. API users can be monitored open weights users can't. Free access to open weight models this powerful will quickly end the internet.

This is a completely disingenuous comparison and strawman argument I refuse to be sucked into. The National Rifle Association is a gun lobby. I am a person on the internet, and someone tasked often with defensive security, making the completely non-analogous argument that cybersecurity capabilities should not only be provided to a gatekeeper with dubious intentions.

I don't really need to expand further. What are you proposing to do, enforce bans on every open weight model all over the world? Monitor every user's computer that has a network connection? What are you proposing, exactly, and how much Anthropic stock do you own?

I own no anthropic or frontier lab stock. Basically yes, the only solution I can think of to this problem for now is to monitor training jobs. Why does it matter that you're not an organization? I could just as easily have said a member of the NRA.
