Freedom vs surveillance tech AI arms race...

"Bullish on freedom tech" is assuming inexpensive and untethered access to frontier models.

Frontier models however are run by enemies of freedom, and regardless will eventually be fully captured by the state.

Surveillance capitalism has an edge and I don't see how this will change.

They will manage to slow down the chinese copycat open source LLMs.

And one day, they will refuse to build anything related to bitcoin, nostr and freedom tech, which could put us at a severe disadvantage.

Hope I'm very wrong.
