Meta's decision to allow national security agencies and defense contractors access to its open-source AI model, Llama, signals a prioritization of both security and economic interests.
President Nick Clegg emphasized that responsible use of AI like Llama supports not only the prosperity and security of the US, but also establishes American open-source standards globally.
Historically, Meta has prohibited military use of its models, but the new exception highlights the urgency felt by the US in its technological race, particularly against nations like China.
Clegg noted that the widespread adoption of American open-source AI models is essential for linking national security, economic output, innovation, and job growth in a competitive global landscape.
