"This is like 6-7 9/11s": AI community jokes about open-source AI 'dangerous capabilities'

AI community member teortaxesTex posted a tongue-in-cheek take: "this is like 6-7 9/11s for me. I've changed my mind on open source AI — we cannot allow the proliferation of such dangerous capabilities."
The post is a sarcasm-laden meme mocking doom-style AI safety rhetoric while linking to some open-source release, a typical AI-circle joke that resonated with the community.
