While I don’t love Google (it’s hard to love) I actually think Sundar isn’t an asshole fwiw. Also I’m not sure if you’d put Dario in big tech circles but he seems half decent. A little too AGI pilled perhaps but definitely standing up for what he believes in.

The bar is pretty low among that population, though.

Dario's attemoting to use legislative capture to stop open source models as we speak.

I mean, they gave money to a PAC that is trying to get legislation to control all models. He’s fine with legislation affecting Anthropic as far as I can tell, as long as it’s evenly applied. Open weight models built outside the US are going to be pretty hard to control, though.

I believe hampering US use of models (see the recent issue with the company having to use Kimi to respond to a security incident) is not decent.
