> They are the ones who are attempting to perform a regulatory capture of the AI industry.
> You, Geoff, and Yoshua are giving ammunition to those who are lobbying for a ban on open AI R&D.
> ...
> The alternative, which will *inevitably* happen if open source AI is regulated out of existence, is that a small number of companies from the West Coast of the US and China will control AI platform and hence control people's entire digital diet.
> What does that mean for democracy?
> What does that mean for cultural diversity?
