They are trying to make training weights of models into munitions, like encryption was in the 80s. That is worse for open source development of models than anything anyone else has done including Amazon. The best thing that can happen is that Altman et al are hit by a bus on the way to their next meeting with a head of state trying to legislate them being the only responsible censor and natural monopolist for Ai.

Kind of depends what the actions are: “Leaving your turn signal on after you have completed a lane change maneuver” and “carrying out a genocide” are both actions one might disagree with.
