Dario is a true believer. He thinks he's right. There's no scam or deception happening there.
The outcome, however, is the same as if he were, unfortunately.
Dwarkesh is a wonderful, phenomenal human, and we're lucky to have him.
Oh sweet summer child.
Why do you think he continues to scare-monger about open weight models?
He is selling fear to you so that you buy more tokens from him and Anthropic raises more money until it IPOs. As the open weight models get better, it threatens Anthropic. So he dials up the threats against open weight models.
All the AI providers do not trust anyone to achieve "AGI" (whatever that means) under the excuse of "safety", which is why Anthropic "exists".
I have never seen Anthropic release a single open weight model. Ever. Why is that?
