Open original source ↗It’s all open source models from here.
American AI companies are simultaneously fighting Democrats (by automating blue jobs), Republicans (by rankling the US military), and China (by fruitlessly combating distillation attacks).
Solve for the equilibrium: open source models become the only trusted models. Centralized American AI burns bright, makes a ton of money, but eventually gets outcompeted by the privacy, freedom, and trust of decentralized local AI.
The next shoe to drop is all the copyright lawsuits against centralized AI companies from disrupted Democrats.
Media is as existential for Democrats as the military is for Republicans, so they will fight hard to push AI out of America.
Nevertheless, we have the Internet.

Quoted context
These are the quoted author’s words.
We're in the Napster era of the AI revolution. But we're entering the RIAA era. The AI counterrevolution. Lawsuits & laws from disrupted parties incoming. Seeking regulations, taxes, & bans. It won't be easy to get to the end zone. A political fight, not just a technological one.

Nvidia, Amazon, Google will have to divest from Anthropic if Hegseth gets his way. This is simply attempted corporate murder. I could not possibly recommend investing in American AI to any investor; I could not possibly recommend starting an AI company in the United States.
