Carmack is saying "Be a Free Speech Absolutist".
> Open Source AI is in many people’s crosshairs today. They believe that giving free access to state of the art algorithms and models without any guardrails constitutes a danger to society, that the public can’t be entrusted...
> In the spirit of the first amendment, congress should make no law abridging the freedom to release open source software.
I.e. Let stop AI from becoming the modern version of "encryption is a weapon." [1]
