As long as Google, etc, stops indexing the site - something I've always wanted. That should be the rule. If it's paywalled or behind a login, it's not indexed.

My company had me add an AI chatbot to our product. Nobody used it. So they had me make it the default landing page, full screen, in your face!
Nobody uses it.

We don't build anything but data centers and that's a one time bonanza at best.
There's steady data center construction work in Northern Virginia. The workers mostly have out of state tags and fill my local commuter parking lot by 7:00am and get bussed to whatever data center they're building that month.

Things that mathematicians do, being done better by computers, seems like just one more thing in a long, long chain, of things machines can do better than humans.
Machines in the past were used to facilitate humans doing things faster and at higher volume. The power hammer didn't replace the blacksmith. The tractor didn't replace the farmer. Those things made humans more productive. AI is different.

I think it comes down to the tools they give the AI. If it can't actually fix a problem, then it's useless.
I used the Roblox AI to recover my kid's stolen account, and it was able to do it within a couple minutes. It had a reset-password tool.
If Google just trains an AI on the help pages, it's not useful.

Somebody needs to write an app that will accept a distress password and then selectively delete whatever it was he was trying to hide, then uninstall. Cops would have no idea it happened.

In this case, they needed to get the flaws fixed fast, too fast to on-board new employees and get them working properly. Hiring a whole raft of new employees on a moment's notice would only lead to financial problems.

Submission + - Anthropic Bans Cruelty Toward Claude, Despite Uncertainty About AI Consciousness (yahoo.com)
CubicleZombie writes: Anthropic has updated its usage policy to prohibit sustained, needless abuse of its Claude AI models. While ordinary frustration, criticism, and adversarial testing remain acceptable, repeated cruelty could result in account restrictions. Anthropic acknowledges there's no evidence Claude can suffer but argues that uncertainty about AI consciousness warrants precaution.
Critics contend the policy anthropomorphizes software, encourages unhealthy emotional attachments, and raises questions about how customers may interact with products they've paid for.
The move raises an intriguing question: If an AI cannot demonstrably experience suffering, is abusing it an ethical problem, or is Anthropic simply policing human behavior?
