Beff Jezos vows to fight for 'freedom of thought and the right to bear compute'

Quoting a take that we're entering a temporary golden age of what a regular person can do with AI, e/acc figurehead Beff Jezos (Guillaume Verdon) pushed back hard: "We will fight for freedom of thought and the right to bear compute. Our individuality and liberty is at stake for the next millennium."
The statement extends e/acc's framing of compute access as a fundamental liberty, and taps into ongoing debate over whether AI power concentration will end the individual-creator boom.
