"Open weight models are good (kind of)" is still up here https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/remarks-by-chair-lina-m-khan-at-y-combinator.pdf

The objectively best part about them is scaling them small enough to run privately. The problem with AI as a "National Security" strategy is that it is a Skynet datacenter strategy. The reason to remove government content that it is ok for you to use AI for your purposes is that Skynet won't be able to control you. The motivation for all of the datacenter investments is that the US government will buy all of the datacenter time to ensure Israel's rule over the US.
