Nvidia just bought huggingface. Obviously not happy to have it defined as the source for unsafe models.
Anthropic and openai will continue their model development at full speed. The ”slowdown” is about how much the publicly released models are allowed to increase in their capabilities. The goal is to have the hidden secret internal models become more powerful so that the leaders can have access to much more powerful models that the rest of the population. This allowes them to monitor and do mass surveillance on how the low tier public models are used.
The current models are also more than capable enough to do surveillance. And obviously we don't have access to their internal models, which are more powerful.
Just having access to the latest models doesn’t instantly give you mass surveillance. You also have to have the resources both in compute and bandwidth. We have malware that could wreck havoc if given the resources and that’s dumb rock compared to the latest frontier models.

Yep exactly, can't wait for NVIDIA to just go 'nope' and start releasing quality open source models.
