Aaron McIntire lays out why he thinks recent doom laden warnings from AI researchers at Anthropic and OpenAI, including a viral resignation post from ex-employee Jacob Coxon, may be less about pure safety concerns and more about pushing regulatory capture against open source competitors. He walks through the timeline, from Coxon's post to statements from researchers at both companies, and argues the real motive is protecting these companies' bottom line ahead of potential IPOs by outlawing local AI models. Aaron connects this to his broader theory that much of the public backlash against data centers and AI traces back to foreign propaganda. He closes with a viral clip of a YouTuber getting the AI model GPT-6 to insist, incorrectly, that the word seventeen has four E's, using it as a lighthearted counterpoint to claims that AI is on the verge of ending humanity.
