A quote-tweet argues you can support AGI without opposing open source
yacineMTB · x · 2026-07-26
A quote-tweet debate argues that being pro-AGI does not logically require being anti-open-source.
The thread pushes back on the claim that supporting AGI and supporting open source are mutually inconsistent, using the Linux analogy: if open systems can be misused, that alone does not make them invalid. The core point is that AGI advocacy and open-source advocacy can coexist, even if some people disagree on the best path forward.
