Decided to go to DC next week to talk directly with policymakers. Not sure how impactful it will be but with everything happening, feels like a good time to share more about open-source AI, transparency, concentration of power, the real risks vs the real benefits. Who do you think I should meet there (Congress members, WH people, public orgs,...)?
