Humanity is so fortunate this "guardrails" mentality didn't catch on when we started publishing books. While too close for comfort, we got twice lucky that computing wasn't hampered by this mentality either.

This time, humanity narrowly averted complete disaster thanks to the huge efforts and resources of a small number of people.

I wonder if we are witnessing humanity's the end of open knowledge and compute (at least until we pass through a neo dark ages and reach the next age of enlightenment).

Whether it'll be due to profit or control, it looks like humanity is posed to get fucked.

The EU hasn't made it hard to release models (yet). The EU has made it hard to train models on EU data. Meta has responded by blocking access to the models trained on non-EU data as a form of leverage/retribution. This is explained by your own reference.
