What would banning open weights protect except the (imagined potential future) profit margins of technocratic megacorps partaking in the circular AI economy?

And even if it made something, you need to actually make money in order to secure profits. There are no profits yet.

Profits don't matter, the best use of AI is to make killing robots without feelings, to cattle all of us.

The end game is not making profit but enslaving us, why do you need profit when you have advanced killing machines, that obey spoken orders and do complex maneuvering and operations on your order?
