me explaining to my non-asoiaf oomfs why they need to read it even though it's an unfinished series with five books that are 1000+ pages each and has a dogshit tv adaptation because it's genuinely the best piece of fiction out there

‼️ Anthropic was hiding a secret internal project to destructively scan every book in the world, irreversibly damaging heritage. The company spent billions of dollars to slice the spines off millions of books, even very rare ones. This means no other AI, and no human, can access this knowledge anymore.

It now markets itself as the responsible lab.

One bookseller told 404 Media his inventory is full of rare, foreign-language and low-circulation books, meaning that if they are destroyed in the process of becoming training data, they will be even harder to obtain.

Second-hand booksellers across Europe are sounding the alarm, because rare books are being destroyed. They have received random lists of thousands of titles. Books too obscure to resell at a profit. Requests arriving overnight from companies nobody in the trade has heard of.

One email came from "Nataly" at 2077AI, a Singapore company. Attached: 3,000 English titles grouped by ISBN. A 1999 geomechanics monograph. A 2018 study of laser shock peening on ceramics. A 2021 academic book on Irish folk tales.

A German dealer watched the orders arrive every night between 3am and 5am. Canadian company Zoom Books, buying systematically, titles with nothing in common. Zoom told Swiss broadcaster SRF that this is a regular recycling and trading model.

Some folks don’t believe that a “principled AI company” would destroy books after they suck out all the information for their models, even one-of-a-kind books and manuscripts.

Here it is admitted in open court.

Pueblo Bonito is a huge complex, built a millenia ago by the Ancestral Pueblo

It's the USA's largest Precolumbian building, the closest thing we have to a ancient palace

Now it + similar structures are at risk by a proposal to open the area to mining

The public comment period ends on the 29th (unsure if right when it becomes the 29th, or when it becomes the 30th), so I encourage people to leave comments ASAP!

Check the reply below for links

(See "ALT" labels for image credits; also note that Pueblo Bonito is the largest precol. BUILDING, if you include monuments then stuff like Monk's Mound is bigger. Also, Pueblo Bonito's last major expansion was in 1150, but had earlier construction phases)

reminder that Biden specifically pushed to get infrastructure projects funded in red states as a gesture of goodwill

now Trump cancels projects in blue states out of spite

International Law was invented by men in the 1920s who experienced first hand what an unrestricted war of attrition was like. You haven't and posting a video of plane doesn't change that fact.
