Nice initiative, but F**K I’m tired of Mericans that think that the “Merica” dump is the hub of the world, and have to specifically pull out that nation as if something special. Merica is NOT the world - get it into your propagandized minds !
"America should not fall behind on the freedom to run, inspect, modify, benchmark, teach, and preserve intelligence infrastructure. The practical posture is American capacity with global open standards. ".
Merican self-grandization/exceptionalism is annoying as F… To local Merican activists: "Broaden your effing scope to include the huge world out there beyond insignificant ‘Merica’, or F’ off with your local problems/activism.
It’s kind of funny how China is actually doing these things right now while Americans are talking it up. I think what we’ll see in practice will be this manifesto applied to China.
I like the sentiment, could have done without the last paragraph.
Yeah, I guess it is targeted to US techbro audience.
I agree. And one stop further: commercial models (not commercial model hosting) have to largely die due to copyright violations. Only chance for that is that the EU makes a move with the president after Trump.
You cannot really ban the violating models that exist nowadays, but you can decide that these models themself cannot be commercialized due to their violations.
yeah I think that would be a very good outcome
Emule, HugstonOne, Hugston.com, Huggingface, Modelscope, Github, Codeberg, fmhy.net (take note) …
It is already winning thanks to Chinese companies. The US frontier models are better, but not by much. They are also a bad deal. I’d rather have 10-20x usage of a almost as good model, that makes it possible for me to actually get shit done.
And now everybody saw how the US can just cut access to their model at any time too.
Yep, not a good look
No. AI must lose.
I’m not as up to date (like at all lol) with specifically open source ai. Is it any better then corporate ai? Including data center-like resources use? or otherwise?
Yes, you can run Qwen 3.6 27b on your laptop and have it do useful work, and it’s more capable than frontier models from a year ago or so. https://qwen.ai/blog?id=qwen3.6-27b
Don’t know exactly how it compares but I’ve measured the electricity increase while running it, something you can run on one graphics card is around the same as a resource intensive video game.
