The argument is that it will make $OAI and $ATHR billions of dollars because U.S. customers with deep pockets will have nowhere to go but the "vetted as safe and verified model providers" aka the duopoly. No one with two brain cells to rub together takes anything they or the current U.S. government has to say at face value.

This is a tale as old as the industrial revolution. I can only hope people see the trick for what it is this time.
