alt Hacker NewsWhere does the bio risk he mentions fall in this category? It feels quite plausible in a year or two to have closed loop labs with very modest resources.
Doesn’t mean that you have to think only Anthropic should be able to make bioweapons or whatever, but it just feels like this ignores the risk
The bio argument is a call for guardrails, thus regulatory capture.
Using a technology does not make an illegal activity illegal. It already was illegal to begin with.
And there are already guardrails in the form of ethos, law, justice departments and so on. This reality is flagrantly dismissed in their position on open-weights.
Just like cyber crime is just things like extortion etc which are already illegal: following similar reasoning all computer activity should be regulated by their vendors.
Hence the knives factory analogy, which is even more basic to point out this crooked way of reasoning.
