我撰写了这份关于过去几周公开信的摘要,作为我仅限赞助人阅读的新闻通讯的一部分,但我决定也在此分享。由微软主导的《开放权重与美国 AI 领导力》信函,日期为 7 月 24 日,已有包括英伟达(见黄仁勋的首条推文)、亚马逊、Y Combinator、Linux 基金会以及(后来签署的)OpenAI 在内的 235 家 AI 相关公司签署。这显然是为了反驳当前美国政府因“安全”担忧而禁止或限制开放权重模型的任何倾向——考虑到 Claude Fable 5 的遭遇,这种担忧是合理的。
I wrote this summary of the past few weeks of open letters as a section of my sponsors-only newsletter, but I've decided to share it here as well. Open Weights and American AI Leadership was shepherded by Microsoft, dated July 24th, and signed by 235 AI-adjacent companies including NVIDIA (see Jensen's first ever tweet), Amazon, Y Combinator, The Linux Foundation, and (a later signer) OpenAI. It's clearly an argument designed to counter any instincts by the current US government to ban or limit open-weight models over "safety" concerns - a reasonable consideration given what happened to Claude Fable 5!
