It would (rightfully) be catastrophic for wells fargo. And great for the industry. If your security model relies on children not having access to things state actors can leverage, your in for a rude awakening.

Then you are in for one too because your personal security relies on that, guaranteed. So does everyone's.

Right now it's looking like the security model for everyone is "Does or doesn't have access to SOTA LLMs"

Hence why they are gating model releases. Even Chinese models are doing this as Kimi K3 shipped with a lobotomized cyber sec ability. The major labs all have invite only cyber models too.

“Security by availability” doesn’t seem really different to me from “security by obscurity” which has already been proven to be complete bullshit.
