> I can train insainly powerful models on my laptop.

What's with this hallucination? The thread is about GPT-5.6. Your laptop can't even run gemma 4 unquantized bfloat16, which is light years behind GPT-5.6, and running it is light years from training it. If something that a laptop can train is insanely powerful for you, you don't need to worry about this thread at all.

Indeed every AI enthusiast has to find within their heart their consistent position between the two extremes:

- Regulation like this is dangerous because the accessibility and capability of open-source AI training and inference are limited;

- Regulation like this is hollow because the accessibility and capability of open-source AI training and inference are unlimited.

Eh, they said models, which can mean hyperspecific domains, not necessarily a massive generalized LLM.
