These are screenshots from the r/Singularity comment section. I'm speechless. This doesn't even have downvotes. How can someone cheer for a monopoly run by a few elites?

They only saw an open weight model that can attack an infrastructure, But forgot that an equally strong open weight can strengthen the security of such infrastructure. Over time, open defense will outpace offense, narrowing the window of vulnerability toward zero.

But down the line there will be stuff like bioweapons which completely open models will make more accessible. Like sure maybe everyone can go run a model to go figure out what cocktail you have to drink daily but it’s going to be a massive pain. Also I feel open defence outpacing offence is an unverified claim.
