does anyone (govt etc) have back-door access to it?
It seems that lately governments are "insisting" on back-doors into user-encryption, going so far as to bar sales of products to their citizens that they can't just look at anytime they feel like it.

Jensen Huang to college grads: "Run. Don't walk" toward AI
https://www.axios.com/2026/05/...
Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang told graduates at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh yesterday that demand for AI infrastructure is creating a "once-in-a-generation opportunity to reindustrialize America and restore the nation's capacity to build."
Why it matters: With many college grads fearing AI could obliterate their career dreams, Huang pointed to boundless opportunity as a "new industry is being born. A new era of science and discovery is beginning
Nvidia, which makes AI chips, is the world's most valuable company. Huang told 5,800 recipients of undergraduate and graduate degrees that the AI buildout will require plumbers, electricians, ironworkers, and builders for chip factories, data centers and advanced manufacturing facilities.
"No generation has entered the world with more powerful tools â" or greater opportunities â" than you," he said. "We are all standing at the same starting line. This is your moment to help shape what comes next. So run. Don't walk."
"Every major technological revolution in history created fear alongside opportunity," Huang added. "When society engages technology openly, responsibly, and optimistically, we expand human potential far more than we diminish it."

Democracy is for retards.
Government did this. All of this. Government regulated so much that only a rare few can afford to compete.
This is late stage statism. Retard voters are to blame.
Like you.
Yes a bit OT but I remember the one-liner contests the magazines would have. You had to not use any unnecessary spaces, single-letter variables, use any command shortening method (like "?" instead of "print") and other tricks to get as much function as possible out of the ~253 bytes of line space available. Amazing what some people could squeeze onto one line of BASIC! (games were the most popular, though graphics displays were frequently featured)
It was pretty normal for those "one-liners" to take up a third of the screen or more when LIST'ed
The manufacturers aren't the problem. They aren't the ones who make the rules about how their product is used on public thoroughfares.
The context of that phrase is almost always used for people who invite regulation with their own foolish/dangerous behavior.
Back in the day most of the computer magazines had one of those. I think it was Nibble magazine that published several programs for the Apple ][.
IIRC you'd start the program in the background and it would watch what line your cursor was on and display a two digit checksum in the upper right corner of the screen that would update as you typed. Just make sure that number matched the check on the end of the line in the magazine and you were clear to hit Return to save the line.
A different magazine had a similar method, but I believe it provided line-by-line checksums after you were done entering the program, and would also generate a "program checksum" at the end that would match if all lines were correct.
I also remember several occasions where there was a printing problem in the magazine and everyone's checksum was wrong, they'd publish a correction in next month's edition and everyone would cry "THAT'S why I couldn't get it right!" (probably after receiving hundreds of letters in the mail complaining about hours of frustration trying to key it in!) This was frequently due to the magazine omitting a line of code. (all the line checksums matched, but not the total at the bottom)
ahh the good ol days of Human OCR....
So yeah your AI can outperform a doctor that gets 5 minutes with the patient before having to move on to the next one in order to keep their private equity Masters satisfied.
So, suppose, we stick it to the "private equity Masters", compel them to double the number of doctors — forget for a second, who is going to pay for them — and afford them a whopping 10 minutes with the patient.
ChatGPT will still beat humans... And it will be getting better with every month, whereas the humans will not...
A new study from Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Deaconess found that an OpenAI reasoning model outperformed experienced ER doctors at diagnosing and managing patient cases
AI is sufficiently anthropomorphic to be capable of making mistakes. Demanding perfection from it is stupid. It does not need to be error-free. It just needs to be better than humans...
modern OCR software struggled with the quality of the decades-old printout.
I'm amazed we can OCR in Egyptian scrolls on papyrus, but struggle with 30 year old green-bar printouts?
At least this time you presented something more nuanced than "people can't afford housing because they spend too much on other things". You could have led with that.
Also, I live about as far from California as is geographically possible within the lower 48, so I'm not assuming any blame for what happens there.
What makes you think it's rich people who are doing the hiring?
Pretending that the cost of housing is a problem only for people who refuse to live within their means is certainly one way to show why resentment of the rich is near an all-time high.
...like "Tell me about Tiananmen Square" or "Tell me about Xinjiang".
Is this what you want for the future?
My thoughts back when R1 came out:
because only a few at every level of government liked them *and* their legal status is very dubious
There, there. With enough of China-sponsored whipping up, the liking of a nuclear weapons research lab can be sunk overnight just as well. Indeed, this very story describes a symptom of that happening.
the rule of law is excruciatingly imperiled atm
"At the moment"? Laughing out loud...
Overload -- core meltdown sequence initiated.
