This is regulatory capture and will end up drying up the open source scene. OpenAI has been pushing for this for a long time with all their "AI is dangerous and we need regulations", and anthropic literally got caught sending a letter pushing for this bill specifically like a week ago.

This helps the big companies more than anything by giving them a huge moat and will guarantee us a shit censored product that can only be run on the cloud for our "safety".
