Beff Jezos calls to 'fight for local AI' amid claims Anthropic pushes to block open models on GPUs
beffjezos · x · 2026-11-10
e/acc figure Beff Jezos amplified Ahmad Osman's claim that Anthropic is lobbying for GPUs, TPUs and NPUs to be unable to run open-source models, effectively killing local AI — with AMD and Google allegedly supportive and NVIDIA opposed. The claim is unverified.
Jezos frames local AI as a freedom issue comparable to the First and Second Amendments, urging the community to defend the right to run your own intelligence on your own hardware.
