The Open-Source Paradox: Giving Away AI Makes It Safer (and More Dangerous)

In July 2023, Meta released Llama 2 with open weights. Within 48 hours, the model had been fine-tuned, quantized, and redistributed on Hugging Face dozens of times, including variants stripped of the safety training that Meta had built in. Within a week, researchers had demonstrated that the stripp…
