All that talk about "safety guardrails" is essentially a call against open source - when models are open, people can always remove them. That's the price of freedom. And we have seen time and time again how the benefits outweigh that price.

AI is here to stay. Future historians will mark somewhere in the last 5 years as the dawn of the Age of AI. The fire has been lit and attempts to suppress it will fail unless you go full Butlerian Jihad.

Yeah, I'd say this borders somewhat on Technophobia. Mixed with people's fear that they will lose their jobs to AI. I think it's also heavily fueled by ignorance.

And the bad thing: Big tech also pushes for that, so they will stay in control and are the only ones benefitting from AI. Everyone else will get a filtered or crippeled version that aligns with their corporate interests.

And once AI takes off, these things will make the world and society even more undemocratic. (My oppinion) I don't want the world to be governed by whatever algorithms and guardrails Meta, Google and OpenAI/Microsoft put in place for us.

All this headline actually says is "The new model out performs the old one".

Complete different model that is made by a much smaller team, is allot more efficiënt and could potentially run more easily on your own pc, outcompetes last years state of the art industrial sized model. Is what its about.
