I don’t know if open weight models are deaccelarationist but if they are, that’s not necessarily a bad thing!
Obviously lots of tradeoffs with respect to catastrophic risk, but it would be the most ironic state of affairs I could imagine for the xrisk community.
I’ll come out and say I think it’s a good thing if open weight models limit the push to bigger and bigger models while diffusing the actual production of value through society.
