“AI safety was always a question about if safe AI could be built in theory, not if a small group of anointed people could keep it safe for us.”

“Open source AI isn’t anti-safety. It’s anti-feudal. Every time some AI guy blathers on about how open source is dangerous but he can build AI and make it safe (but only if you purchase it through his API), he is calling you a serf.”

- George Hotz, Closed Source AI = Neofeudalism
