.@tekbog and @basedjensen on why they think Anthropic's cyber risk argument against open source AI is actually just about monopoly: @tekbog: "I'm kind of skeptical. Yeah, they just want the market and the monopoly. They want everyone to be fearful and they're pumping their numbers. That's my personal opinion of course." "I think it's good that these models can be weaponized to some degree because a lot of cybersecurity is really bad. It's a very good wake up call to systems engineers to get your sh*t together." @basedjensen: "It's a double-edged kind of thing. Yes, there is some risks. But I think there's a bigger risk having a small group of people having access to this while the defenders do not have anything." "If the defenders can actually come in and scan the code and quickly patch things up, that would mitigate the risks much better than having Glasswing or a small Chinese set of companies accessing these cyber capabilities." "It's rather better to democratize and enable everybody than to hide the capabilities. At some point or the other, it's going to leak. It's better to be patched up and take the pain now than later."
