I think we’re both dancing around the same ideas. If Pandora openAI hadn’t already opened the box and loosed the horrors upon us this would be a different conversation.

Reading your exchange here, one thing comes to my mind. One of the core principles of open source was that if you were distributed something, you have to retain the right and possibility to modify it to your use case. And if you’re going to distribute it yourself, you have to disclose the source of what you distribute. So in the OS spirit, even if creators put guards in place, end users have to be able to modify what was distributed to them
