[$] FOSS in times of war, scarcity, and AI

Michiel Leenaars, director of strategy at the NLnet Foundation, used his keynote
at FOSDEM to sound warnings for
the community for free and open-source (FOSS) software; in particular, he
talked about the threats posed by geopolitical politics, dangerous
allies, and large language models (LLMs). His talk was a mix of
observations and suggestions that pertain to FOSS in general and to
Europe in particular as geopolitical tensions have mounted in recent
months.
