@claudeai Rolling out to max plan users anytime soon?

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@bitcloud @David_Fairchild Most would agree SWE/drug discovery are where more resources should be allocated. Re efficiency: microwaving meals is far easier/faster than cooking but at the cost of your future health.

Maybe they should put the datacenters in their own backyards?

@David_Fairchild Very well put and yes it’s extremely dystopian.

The fact that some of these technocrats have doomsday bunkers equipped with sniper towers on the paremeters (in the non-zero chance of societal collapse), should be reason enough for even the most eager boosters to stop & think

@Cooopahtroopa Hope you’re all good Coop!

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@ednewtonrex Very well said.

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@javilopen Can we top up credits though? Remember when you promised that?

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@SyntheticBeef @ChombaBupe Oh maybe you meant this China? Where “An AI company was found by the Guangzhou Internet Court to have committed copyright infringement in its provision of AI-generated text-to-image services”.

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@SyntheticBeef @ChombaBupe Oh you meant this China? The one where startups operate with complete impunity?

https://t.co/6bEhzAkfMO

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@VraserX @gfodor The “but China” argument is self defeating when they’re more regulated than the tech companies in the West.

Also, if you think being in China gives startups some sort of impunity to do what they like, guess again.

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@SyntheticBeef @ChombaBupe Or did you mean this China?

https://t.co/6bEhzAkfMO

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@SyntheticBeef @ChombaBupe Really? This China? The country that has more regulation than the companies in the west that are trying to use “but China” as their get out of jail free card?

@lacryptoryna @NoCreative_eth @eyes_of_lamia It’s a very hard psychological shift for people to make (to truly create for the love of it). That said, I think it’s the best one can hope for nowadays. The folks who are in it solely for money will be sorely disappointed & be gone soon enough.

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@NoCreative_eth Hang in there, the love will return. I fell into a deep depression when Gen-music showed up. It didn’t take me long to learn the tools - or for the “what’s the point” feelings to emerge. Eventually, the urge to pick up the guitar returned, & I haven’t put it back down since 🎸

[High Tropics @HighTropics]

@AndyBeard @Rahll You’re not wrong that it touches everything. And what it doesn’t - it will soon. Which is exactly why we need more regulation. There is a difference between AI-assisted workflows & mass generated UGC & deepfakes. Even China has mandated transparency laws.
