Interesting way to encourage open weights models. It sounds like anyone wanting to export closed AI will have to apply for a licence.

It's something I've read a few times. Most of the studies I've seen say it's effect is modest at best. At least if it was a drug there wouldn't be enough evidence for it to get FDA approval (especially with all the "side effects" such as injury)
Arguably this is a limitation on how the studies were done, as nobody is going to pay for extensive studies since you can't patent exercise.

Isn't it basically settled that model weights can't be copyrighted as they don't pass the threshold of originality?
Re:We're releasing the weights of Mistral Large 4

Hence the difference between open weights and open source.
But this is neither.

The first steam ships were paddle steamers, wiki even says SS can just be a generic term for steam ship.
It's not unusual for acronyms to have multiple meanings, the S in HMS can mean submarine, as submarines aren't ships.
