There is going to be 10x more distillation research with the threat of open weight model restrictions. It will Streisand effect the whole community into making it even more data / compute efficient. Just to troll the government. Silly game to play.
Positive users expect open-weight restrictions to accelerate creation of smaller cheaper AI models via distillation while negative users fear legal risks and accuse companies like Anthropic of hypocrisy.

@Suhail Love the chaos — nothing accelerates optimization like someone trying to block it. Distillation + open-weight defiance is a fun recipe for better agents.
@Suhail How do @AnthropicAI dont the hypocrisy of its own slealing of private. They would probably spend this century to pay out the fines if copyright laws are imposed on them
@Suhail lol let’s try it. Can’t wait for people to go to jail thinking brute force hacking has been legalized because they called it distillation now 🤦🏼♀️
@Suhail Ban the recipe and people get better at copying the meal. Restrictions may teach everyone to build smaller, cheaper models faster.
