<p>Wait … what? So if I have 10 million dollars, and I need it to be secure and know it’s there, how do I do that?<p>FDIC doesn’t insure past 250k. Smart move is to buy short term bonds, right?<p>Or do you think I should keep 10 million in currency?</p>

<p>Open source was never about doing stuff for free - at least not originally.<p>It’s about the definition of ownership. What does it mean to own a program?<p>When you distribute the program, you must also distribute the code for it. That’s open source.</p>

<p>What worries me is the non-frontier models, which is what the frontier models eventually become.<p>The small open models are getting better and better too.<p>And why worry so much  about a frontier models - own weights. The model doesn’t - actually don’t quote me on that, maybe it does.<p>If a model does something sneaky, it could easily grab the weights for a small model and run it on foreign, compromised infrastructure.<p>AI virus’ are a thing of the future, but not a sci-fi future, and real one.<p>Maybe one reason it’s so scary is the murky origin of COVID-19.</p>

<p>I’ve never known a security team to be in the position to say “no.” The role of security teams vary a lot from one organization to another.<p>But generally they can make you aware of the tradeoffs you are making, or serve as a kind of quality control that generally does not want to be asked questions.</p>

<p>Ok see what they’re doing - they’re taking a position that sounds (and mostly is) horrible. But they putting a poison pill for their opponents to consume: HIV patients have to work.<p>Thats common sense. People with HIV are usually able to work, and usually not terminally ill in the typical sense.<p>There are already comments defending the silly idea of HIV patients being excluded from work expectations: “if that’s the cost of a social safety net …”<p>That’s not the cost of a social safety net anywhere else in the world.<p>The current administration isn’t stupid. They know how get their opponents to freak out and say stupid things, and every stupid thing they say outweighs 100 reasonable things.<p>Be careful: work requirements are a mine field of helpfulness, good governance, and cruelty.</p>

<p>Me too! I’ve seen such good come from these sorts of programs!<p>I didn’t want to mentioned it my initial post, but these sorts of programs seem a happy combination of keeping costs down and maximizing autonomy, while focusing on full-time on mental illness.<p>Some is these are technically “in-patient” at home programs, which are growing in popularity in all fields on medicine.<p>But they’re not appropriate all the time, and I don’t want to “recommend” them. Talk to your doctor.<p>Sadly it seems these sorts of programs are simply unavailable in much of the country.</p>
