Mozilla CTO: Is open-source AI really a dangerous path?
Mozilla CTO Raffi Krikorian believes that open-source AI is not a dangerous path: capability revocation is not a property of the model itself, but a term of the API contract, applying only to the lab's own customers. Once weights are released, they cannot be taken back. He cites Mozilla's *State of Open Source AI* report, stating that open-source models handle about one-third of global AI workloads yet earn only about 4% of revenue, and 79% of developers already build with open-source models.
