Free speech includes lying.

Merit should always consider strictly value.

The $5K a year just gives you a $300 per person per visit discount. So pays itself back in 15 visits or so.

Plenty of us nerds can afford this and want to see news about this.

Garbage regulations like IP create these behemoths. If you want freedom, stop regulating monopolies into existence.

Statism creates billionaires.

I'm not sure why this got downvoted. This is a fundamental problem. It's the same problem Google faced in China with Search years ago when they actually did pull out and watched Microsoft and everybody else hurry in to fill the void.

Here I can understand to an extent: the workers are UK citizens (presumably). If you were a UK citizen, I'd imagine helping the USA advance its military capability (especially when you might not like the current administration) is a problem for you. But DeepMind is also its employees. What's Google supposed to do? Force them to move to the US and renounce their existing citizenship?

And I agree with other responses to this, as well: the US has made its own bed here over the last 40 years. If it was good policy to export all of this technology to distant corners of the world in the name of higher profits, while still relying on it for fundamental functions of government, where was anyone assessing the national security risk?

The only thing that the US can do is force Google to make their employees behave. The only way to do that is either by citing some national security concern (unlikely) or shop somewhere else (easier and much more likely).

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.

Grok was constantly say it was doing something that it had ZERO ability to, and I kept calling it out and it kept apologizing and then immediately doing it again.

As a guy who spend 5 figures a year on Ai, the last thing I want is that. I know Claude and ChatGPT also do it, but Grok was doing it CONSTANTLY.

This will not end well.

Why is this a problem?

I do not want my software censoring anything I make.

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.

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.
