Trump administration directs OpenAI to require federal approval for every GPT-5.6 customer

most of the people, including myself, that considered themselves “e/acc” back in the day, are definitely publicly upset and angry by this

the thing is that e/acc as a bloc/united force has largely fell to the wayside in the last year+ (mostly bc it achieved its aims, but also bc, like all things, it was a product of its time and things change)

@anshulkundaje check out what’s being built on @opentensor

@PKoellinger and I can share more about our experience building there if you’re interested.

OPEN SOURCE IS THE ONLY WAY! All these companies can sit with closed source products in their little attics.

This will be the case for AI x Bio as well.

We need a very strong open source community across the board.

@sporadica Has it achieved its aims though? Feels like we need it now more than ever (data center policy + this kind of thing)

@pitdesi Maybe because many hope they’ll make it to the “patricians list” :)

@pitdesi still waiting for david sacks to bless the talking points

@pitdesi The AI labs told us that their models are very dangerous. Isn't it the government's responsibility to keep us safe from these dangerous models falling into the enemy’s hands?

@anshulkundaje Yeah definitely.

@pitdesi Have you been on twitter? My entire TL has been nothing but accelerationists denouncing this idiocy, regulatory capture, the doomers for freaking out the normies, and generally accepting we need to go open source and route around this admin because the decels captured it.

@pitdesi waiting for the marching orders. will parrot the exact same logic in 24 hours

@pitdesi They spent untold billions and have worse access control than a rural bank

It is the fault of the industry itself and no one else. It was forseeable that foreign controls would happen eventually.

@pitdesi That would require a lot of them to have a spine.

@pitdesi Because wrong president did it

@pitdesi You know why! 😂

@theinformation @leomschwartz @amir @anngehan @alliekmiller 这几条放一起看，AI 圈今天挺像连续剧的

@pitdesi cus they're all cucked

@pitdesi It is but they’re scared of criticising Trump/admin.
