The future is open source. We need to embrace it and get on with it.

Imagine if America closed the door on open source.

We would explicitly be forcing American companies to pay $26-56 per 1MM tokens for the same intelligence their adversaries/competitors around the world would pay $0.50-1 for.

This is economically unsustainable unless AI is bullshit.

If it’s the supposed through line of all future economic activity that we’ve been told it is, we can’t handicap America at such a meaningful cost disadvantage.

This can also be viewed thru a military lens and not just a simple economic one as well.

Letting our adversaries attack us for $0.50 per 1MM tokens while we spend $26-56 per 1MM tokens to defend ourselves is equally ruinous.

It’s the Cold War Soviet collapse in reverse.
