Imagine if the weights for GPT 4 leaked. It just has to happen one time and then once the torrent magnet link is circulated widely it’s all over… for OpenAI.

This is what they’re terrified of. They’ve invested near a billion dollars and need billions in revenue to enrich their shareholders.

But if the data leaks? They can’t stop random companies or moneyed individuals running the models on their own kit.

My prediction is that there will be copyright enforcement mandated by law in all GPUs. If you upload weights from the big AI companies then the driver will block it and phone home. Or report you to the authorities for violations of corporate profits… err… “AI Safety”.

I guarantee something like this will happen within months because the clock is ticking.

It takes just one employee to deliberately or accidentally leak the weights…

Sorry I don’t understand what would be the impact? Aren’t the results not deterministic

What are the weights here

Time to jailbreak GPUs, then. That or import "international" editions grey market from Taiwan.

Oh this is a nifty idea. Hadn't thought of regulation in this manner. Seems like it would be pretty effective too.
