Oh, boo hoo! The government can't control what people people see, read, or think. Psst... that's called freedom, son. You should try it some time.

That demo gives me a headache. Until I can turn my head any way I want, no thanks.
Figures. These people have gotten so used to being able to browbeat their perceived enemies into submission that they think that's how it should work with asshat countries and regimes who regularly swear to destroy western civilization. But when the ass-kicking is done by the military, oh boy, that's the time to take your ball and go home.
Wouldn't it have been easier and cheaper to hire Anthropic to fix the flaws?
Is another man's "nominal subscription fee"
I'd be ok with a price increase if the content weren't either garbage or boring as hell like it is now. And while we're on the subject, is anyone here old enough to remember when TLC was called The Learning Channel? There's nothing on there worth learning about. It could easily be renamed The Trainwreck Channel.
Cable is desperately trying to retain regulatory capture in an effort to save a dying business model.
I read that whole summary and had no clue what the hell HubSpot is.
This. So many other comments in this thread first assume that this story is real and then make a political statement without the slightest attempt at critical thinking.
It all depends on whose ox is getting gored.
A comedian on Gutfeld last night nailed it.
"AI has a 10% chance of killing us all. Also 15 minutes COULD save you 15% by switching to GEICO. It won't but it COULD"
Insert jokes about men thinking with their junk or Zaphod Beeblebrox.
Everyone knows that evil regimes don't follow any sort of rules of engagement or military codes of conduct like the West does. They will deliberately put their military forces in or near schools and hospitals. Human shields tend to work in only one direction. If those sites don't get taken out, they have a base of operations. If they do get taken out, they can go to the court of public opinion and try to deflect blame.
Johnson!
Seriously, if you want to be far better educated about this issue, listen to the All-in podcast. These guys know way more than everyone else in the media is telling you. The latest horseshit is the so-called "whistleblower" who worked for AI company for a mere six weeks and suddenly knows everything. He also had zero activity on his X account before spouting off. Oh, and by the way, before going to work at the AI company, he worked for an NGO whose sole purpose is to bork AI.
Then there's the Hugging Face issue. Oh, did they forget to tell you that Hugging Face left API keys in public repositories? Yeah, didn't think so.
This is all FUD designed to do two things. One, to gin up support for yet another unaccountable government agency. The big two or three will have regulator capture and no new startup will ever be able to get off the ground. If you like the FDA taking ten years to approve a new drug that can save lives, wait till you want to get a new AI model approved. Does "never" work for you? The second reason is that China is definitely behind much of this FUD because they are going full-tilt on AI. You want China to have superior AI to the rest of the world?
