Developer MaziyarPanahi quote-shared a manifesto from open-source medical AI org OpenMed, which argues that closed labs can race however they like, but the open-source community will keep advancing AI "responsibly, transparently, and in public" — adding that "intelligence this powerful cannot be left in the hands of a few." Panahi, half-joking that he woke up disappointed AI hasn't cured all diseases yet, endorsed the open-source stance.
