🚨BREAKING: Anthropic CEO Dario responds to Nvidia CEO Jensen’s open weights letter “Anthropic has never advocated for a ban on open-weights models.” What Anthropic DOES support: >don’t sell powerful chips to China, crack down on smuggling >crack down on industrial-scale distillation >mandatory safety testing for all capable models, open AND closed On Jensen’s letter: Agrees: >open weights expand access >strengthen competition >give customers control Disagrees: >that open weights necessarily help defenders more than attackers >specifically worried about biology >“sufficiently capable models may be able to quickly weaponize pandemic-level viruses” On distillation: >“A blanket ban on open-weights models is neither the correct remedy nor something we have called for.” The real target: "companies backed by an authoritarian state seeking to overtake the US at the frontier."
