This is as unethical as that time JVC released VHS which allowed people to record videos but also pirate content!!1

You'd have to work at the RIAA to think that piracy and bioweapons are comparable.

I don't know how much releasing this model is a delta on safety, but we certainly need to do a better job of vetting who can order viruses; my understanding is there's very little restrictions right now. This will become more important as models get more capable.

Clear snark aside, content piracy has pretty bounded risks so isn’t a reasonable comparison
