I had real trouble deciding how to end this piece.

There's no easy answer here. All of the options are bad in different ways!

As a builder of software, I want access to the best possible tools to help me keep that software secure.

As a user of software, I want my software to be secure and I don't want bad actors to be able to access tool to help them exploit it.

Is the only answer here to have the AI labs make decisions over who gets access to the tools? What if they make mistakes in those decisions?

None of the options look good to me. I don't know what we should do here.

My hunch is that the open weight models are already forcing our hand. The dangerous capabilities are coming to everyone.
