The AI companies will argue that we should therefore not be allowed to own computers powerful enough to run local LLMs, and instead should own thin clients and subscribe.

Not that relevant. Those fears are about malicious use of open weights models, this is about autonomous self replication of (small) models. Clearly the article by the AI company describes this potentially happening on computers with tiny memory and processing power, where even thin clients could be effected. I also disagree strongly that that's what the AI companies want, especially the employees which I have never seen espouse anything like that. They just don't want some random teenager creating the next covid. There are ways to do that without meaningfully limiting compute for individuals.
