Apparently unlike his dad, he thinks Iran should have built nukes long ago.

Seems like Israel and the US are determined to prove him right about that.

It's also a bit rich to say, "This is publicly available, you can read this, but you're forbidden from learning anything from it."

Bear in mind, large laguage models are often trained in a single pass these days. This means that the model looked at the documents once, and updated its weight imperceptibly. If it's capable of repeating something verbatim from that, it's only because it's model of the world was already so good from all its other training data, that what was in the Britannica document was extremely predictable. In other words, that there was almost no additional information there.

And that's as expected from an encyclopedia! If there's anything surprising in an encyclopedia, that's a bad sign.

I think the main thing people worry about isn't any specific identity stuff, but simply that you'll be at the mercy of people who could and would hurt you, with total impunity, if they knew what you thought about them.

People have literally been abused for poking fun at the vice president in social media.

Same reason I won't visit Thailand, the only difference being that the king who they will harm you for criticizing, is a lot less in your face obnoxious (let alone murderous) than the US one.

This will not end well.

Why is this a problem?

I do not want my software censoring anything I make.

Side effect? Seems like it's the main product. "Own the libs" or something.

Neoliberalism and liberalism are two totally different things.

Ai will just shine the light on the class of workers who have make-work just that exist solely to push them to vote harder.

When we can let markets replace them, itâ(TM)ll be a tragedy for a few generations and then it will be forgotten.

People embraced EVs. Just as long as by people, you mean not your average Ethiopian, but the ones making decisions in Ethiopia.

And so? That's how it works with most things everywhere. If you're bothered by how the decisions by people with money and power influence regular people's decisions, I suggest you have bigger fish to fry than EVs in Ethiopia.

I am anti copyright and have been all my life. I have created things of value and always dump them into the public domain.

Copyright infringes our rights to use our brain and voice and hands and body.

Fuck IP.

Federal regulations are stupid level: they are owned by lobbyists and megacorps.

Send this to the states.

I don't think people like this person or Timnit Gebru are necessarily right. But any person hired as an "ethics expert" can't be taken seriously until they've quit at least one job in protest.

Regulators should be afraid of weaponized Ai. So should censors. So should monopolists.

All of the things the State has done in the past 500 years has been corrupt and bureaucratic and caused harm. All. Not most, but all.

All of the people who supported it, from monopolists to lobbyists to activists caused harm.

Ai is undoing it all. Not piece by piece but all at once.

I, for one, can't wait to see folks zapped for restraining voluntary behavior.

Trump? As if the pressure to end anonymity on the internet doesn't have pan-elite support? Last I checked the current governments of Denmark, UK and Australia weren't very Trump aligned, yet they p push chat control legislation as if their lives depend on it. "It's because we don't have enough information control that we have Trump!" is a sentiment you'll hear over and over again in neoliberal spaces.

Trump is in his dotage, as Kim put it. I'm sure he wants control too, but right now he's mostly about controlling his bowels. Whatever he does someone else decided.

This is why it's time to end social security.

I look at how much I've paid in over my life, and what it would be worth to me today EVEN IF you took out a lot to take care of the infirm and disabled.

There is no way that 65% of the population needs a full handout, but that's about what I'm paying.
