Like, the more likely way, I think, would be that kind of spy activation.
But, look, it's open source.
And so, if they stop making it, like, we've still got the last code base, we can train up the model, we can, you know, we can learn from it.
In the meanwhile, there's, I mean, the great thing about open is it's open.
And, you know, look, we need to build our own open source products here.
Thinking Machines is doing a good job of that.
I think in
France, you know, Mistral is doing a good job of that.
So, like, we need to keep pushing the technology forward, the open technology, so that, look, it needs to be available everywhere for everyone.
And, like, we can't be held hostage by, like, the worst scenario is there ends up being a monopoly in AI.
I mean, I think it's fairly obvious how dangerous that could be and how powerful that company would be and what a national security risk that would be.
We've already seen a glimpse of it, right, with Anthropic saying, like, I don't care who got elected in the U.S.
I don't care about the government.
I don't care about the Department of War.
We're not going to work with you.
We're in charge.
And so you look at that, you go,
okay, that seems like a much bigger national security risk than the kinds of little holes people are trying to poke in the open source story.
So I just think it's very, very important that this technology proliferate and not be kept contained in a single company.
Yeah, I actually agree with Aaron.
