“Open source is indisputably one of the biggest drivers of progress in software and by extension AI. But it is under existential threat from regulation that will advantage entrenched interests. We believe that open AI is vital for research, innovation, competition, and safety.”
Open source is one of the biggest drivers of progress in software - AI would be unrecognizable without it. However, it is under existential threat from both regulation and well-funded lobby groups. The community needs to defend it vigorously. 🧵

The heretofore silent majority of AI scientists and engineers who - do not believe in AI extinction scenarios or - believe we have agency in making AI powerful, reliable, and safe and - think the best way to do so is through open source AI platforms NEED TO SPEAK UP !
Replying to @sriramk
yes - the deck is stacked Decades of dystopian sci-fi and talk of extinction create the fear required to limit development open-source advocates need clear, tangible examples of the tech's value and the importance of US leadership who do you think is doing this best?
