Gentle reminder that, in closed source AI from companies like Anthropic and OpenAI You have zero control over how the models behave, and they can – Quantize it
– Distill it
– Sabotage your work and data
– Hot-swap to a cheaper/weaker checkpoint
– Make the model manipulative

Continual learning ensures open-source AI victory over Anthropic
By
–

Continual learning, among other things, will ensure Opensource AI wins Anthropic has no moat and that’s why they’re trying so hard to make their models so useless in allowing others to break that wall But they just don’t know that they’ve already lost

Mythos: first AI model deliberately worse to block public benefit
By
–
The public Mythos is the first model that is deliberately designed to perform worse on technical tasks than its predecessors. AI companies will have models that help them to do research, but they will increasingly block others from benefiting. Not your weights, not your brain!
