An open letter to Dario: if you mean it, open the weights! Sep 12, 2026 给 Dario 的一封公开信:如果你是认真的,请开放模型权重!2026 年 9 月 12 日
Dear Dario, You published We Must Pace the Frontier today, which committed Anthropic to embedded third-party evaluators and asked governments to require every other frontier company to match. Sam Altman agreed within hours. The stated goal is to slow down the pace of AI progress. I believe you’re being sincere, so I’m asking you to call for a different law, one that would actually slow things down, even though it would require real sacrifice on your part. 亲爱的 Dario,你今天发表了《我们必须放慢前沿步伐》(We Must Pace the Frontier),承诺 Anthropic 将引入第三方嵌入式评估员,并呼吁政府要求所有其他前沿 AI 公司效仿。Sam Altman 在几小时内就表示了赞同。你们宣称的目标是放慢 AI 发展的速度。我相信你是真诚的,所以我请求你呼吁制定一项不同的法律——一项真正能放慢速度的法律,尽管这需要你做出真正的牺牲。
Any AI model a company offers to the public has to be released as open weights. This wouldn’t cover every model you train, just the ones you make available to the public. Internal and research models wouldn’t be affected, and governments could still get access to unreleased models. But Anthropic would have to publish Fable’s weights the day it was released, OpenAI would have to do the same with Astra, and so would everyone else. 任何公司向公众提供的 AI 模型都必须以“开放权重”的形式发布。这并不涵盖你们训练的所有模型,仅限于你们向公众开放的那些。内部模型和研究模型不会受到影响,政府依然可以获取未发布的模型。但这意味着 Anthropic 必须在 Fable 发布当天公开其权重,OpenAI 也必须对 Astra 采取同样的做法,其他人亦然。
As you know, funding for frontier model development depends on valuations that assume the weights remain proprietary. By changing that assumption, we can reduce the money available for future training runs and slow progress at every lab at once, without a regulator deciding anything. 如你所知,前沿模型开发的资金依赖于假设权重保持私有的估值。通过改变这一假设,我们可以减少用于未来训练的资金,从而同时放慢所有实验室的进展,而无需监管机构做出任何裁决。
Every regulation you’ve asked for ends in capture. There’s no slowing down frontier models by regulation that wouldn’t lead to regulatory capture. Embedded evaluators, compute thresholds, industry coordination with antitrust waivers. All of it gets written with the help of the current frontier labs, because nobody else understands the technical details well enough to write it. Once it’s law, it only gets more complex, because every incident adds a rule and no rule ever gets removed. The big companies can afford the compliance teams and lawyers to keep up, and each new requirement makes it harder for anyone else to catch them. Instead of slowing you down, it protects your position and profits. 你所呼吁的每一项监管最终都会导致“监管俘获”。没有任何一种通过监管来放慢前沿模型速度的方法不会导致监管俘获。嵌入式评估员、算力阈值、带有反垄断豁免的行业协调,所有这些规则都是在当前前沿实验室的帮助下编写的,因为没有其他人足够了解技术细节来撰写这些内容。一旦成为法律,它只会变得越来越复杂,因为每发生一起事件就会增加一条规则,而没有任何规则会被废除。大公司有能力负担合规团队和律师来跟上进度,而每一项新要求都让其他人更难追赶。这不仅没有放慢你们的速度,反而保护了你们的地位和利润。
Why I’m asking you: You seem like a good and principled person, and you have a record of giving things up for what you believe. You left OpenAI to start a company with safety built in from the beginning, when the safe career move was to stay. You’ve spent years asking for regulation of your own industry and getting called a doomer and a regulatory capturer for it. You pushed for export controls that shrink your own market. Anthropic paid $1.5 billion to settle with authors rather than fight to the end. And today you committed to slowing down before anyone else did. 我为何请求你:你看起来是一个善良且有原则的人,并且你有为了信仰而放弃既得利益的记录。当留在 OpenAI 是更稳妥的职业选择时,你却选择离开并创办了一家从一开始就内置安全机制的公司。多年来,你一直呼吁对自己的行业进行监管,并因此被称为“末日论者”和“监管俘获者”。你推动了缩减自身市场的出口管制。Anthropic 支付了 15 亿美元与作者达成和解,而不是抗争到底。今天,你又在所有人之前承诺放慢步伐。
You also had the foresight to make Anthropic a PBC (Public Benefit Corporation), so you can legally put the mission first: The responsible development and maintenance of advanced AI for the long-term benefit of humanity. This is exactly the kind of mission over short-term profit decision the PBC structure exists for. You remain the only person who could propose a law like this and be taken seriously, and the only one likely to actually do it. If you really want to slow down frontier AI, call for a law that makes every publicly available model open weights. There’s nothing in it to game or dodge, even for you. 你还有远见地将 Anthropic 设为 PBC(公共利益公司),这样你就可以在法律上将使命置于首位:为了人类的长期利益,负责任地开发和维护先进 AI。这正是 PBC 结构存在的意义——将使命置于短期利润之上。你依然是唯一一个能提出此类法律并被认真对待的人,也是唯一一个真正可能做到这一点的人。如果你真的想放慢前沿 AI 的发展,请呼吁制定一项法律,要求所有公开可用的模型必须开放权重。这项提议没有任何可以钻空子或逃避的地方,即使是对你而言也是如此。
