It's either please the Orange or don't release at all (or worse). OpenAI's leverage is limited; even Anthropic folded.

If you're asking what the average person can do, then the civic perogative is political action to help elect more AI-cognizant leaders.

There are none. People forget the other side wanted to shut down research entirely, not just release. No idea why people think the other side would have been any better, it would have been even worse. On top of that, anthropic got exactly what they wanted.
