โBest possible outcomeโ aka we donโt know whatโs going to happen.
It was inevitable DoD was going to choose from. What we should have been focusing on since the beginning is how do we make sure we stay true to our morals. Conflict or not.
Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network.
In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome.
AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement.
We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only.
We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements.
We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.
The Anthropic vs. Trump falling out is almost exactly similar to the Oppenheimer vs. Truman falling out in 1945.
Oppenheimer went to see Truman, feeling bad about the atomic bombs being used in Nagasaki and Hiroshima and famously said,
"Mr. President, I fear I have blood on my hands."
Legend goes that Truman gave him a handkerchief and said "Wipe it off then." Truman was do disgusted with Oppenheimer's perceived cowardice that he kicked him out of the meeting and told his aides,
"Blood on his hands?! Dammit, he hasnโt half as much blood on his hands as I have. You just donโt go around bellyaching about it. Don't ever let that crybaby scientist back in my office."
Truman then shifted his efforts to working with Ernest Lawrence and Edward Teller, who were way more gung-ho about the Government getting involved in nuclear research.
Can you see the parallels?
@deep3lue@NBricker32@DonSoloway@KeeferMadnes411@GG_MacM13420@notcapnamerica @Cheap_Knockoff 1/3 Jeffrey is right, but this is only 1 part of it. Say import oranges pre-tariffs at $1/orange with $0 in tariffs while buying domestic oranges is $1.20/orange. 50% tariff on orange makes it buying $1/orange + $.50 in tariffs for a total of $1.50/orange for the company.
@ColdBloodShill Ok, what if Goldman Sachs make a prediction on Meta and supposed to readers to buy it until $10K, then GS starting to sell and didnโt disclosure, how would we call this behaviour?
Itโs not about me, when to sell
Itโs about meme coin Jesus to take responsibility for his words
