Mozilla and a host of other researchers are urging US officials to see value in open-source AI models when considering future regulation.

Mozilla and a cohort of nearly 50 nonprofit organizations, AI firms, and academic researchers have signed and sent a letter to the US Department of Commerce's Secretary Gina Raimondo, advocating for increased transparency and true openness in AI development.

Mozilla and the Center for Democracy and Technology are key signatories, but many others including Creative Commons, EleutherAI, the Computing Research Association, and Accountable Tech are also backing the letter.

No it doesn't.

And it also opens the door for training data to be obtained unethically

Ethics are subjective.

The only people who say shit like that as a defence are people that 90% of people would agree are behaving unethically. Just because ethics overall are subjective doesn't mean there aren't some obvious right and wrong answers.
