  on: To open-source or to not open-source, that is (an over­sim­plifi­ca­tion of) the ques­tion.

  Open source or not open source.
  Is that the question?
  Whether tis nobler in the mind to share
  the bits and weights of outrageous fortune 500 models?
  or to take arms against superintelligence
  and through privacy, end them? to hide.
  to share, no more. and by a share to say we end
  the headache and the thousand artificial shocks
  the brain is heir to: tis a conversation
  devoutly to be wished. to hide.
  to encrypt, perchance to silence—aye, there’s the rub.
  for in that closed off world, what solutions may arise,
  that may save us from the models we build,
  may give us our pause?
