Now that I see this in the light of the recent sama article, I wonder whether the point of the "it's too dangerous" rhetoric is to enable "Open" AI to avoid open-sourcing the weights and process.

A convenient pretext for maintaining a monetizable competitive advantage while claiming a benevolent purpose.

It's the first section in the article -

"I have implemented manual memory management via cpp/new and cpp/delete. This uses jank's GC allocator (currently bdwgc), rather than malloc, so using cpp/delete isn't generally needed. However, if cpp/delete is used then memory collection can be eager and more deterministic.

The implementation has full bdwgc support for destructors as well, so both manual deletion and automatic collection will trigger non-trivial destructors."

When you’re debugging, especially a complex system, especially during an outage or postmortem, understanding when your commands executed relative to when your log lines appeared is really helpful.

Does anyone have a sense (or direct experience) of whether goverments are tougher on immigration applicants that get degrees from online institutions like this?
