Anthropic wants open weights models banned, and wants data centers. They're probably going to get the opposite.

The problem is SCOTUS has already ruled software is protected under the First Amendment, and the landmark cases that establish this precedent applies perfectly to model files.

Weights aren't really software though? Any more than a png is software. And God knows you can put things in a png that are not covered by the first amendment.

The current SCOTUS majority will change any ruling as needed to satisfy the wishes of the oligarchs.
