What happened
Meta, Nvidia, and Microsoft submitted comments asking the US government to avoid restricting open-weight AI. Open-weight models let outside developers inspect, modify, and run the software locally. The companies argued that open access drives economic growth and supports security.
The context
Governments are weighing safety rules for artificial intelligence. Restricting open-weight models could shift control back to a few closed lab providers and limit independent software development.
