@the_uaf_@paris_wisdom And I have no problem with him posting his views, he has free speech. I am not reading any bad faith into him proselytising his views on BiG. He is not affording them the same courtesy, even though he is supposed to be a supporter of free speech and inclusion.
@the_uaf_@paris_wisdom You don’t see the irony of him being ok with freely associating with likeminded people without any implication of bad faith, but at the same time incorporating charged language like “radicals” and “recruiting” for Christians having Bible studies and openly saying their own views?
@paris_wisdom It is your intention to undermine/oppose/stifle BiG by (i) verbalising your opposition; and (ii) using X, as a means to find agreement with others (collectivise) and/or to convince others by your argumentation (recruit).
If you disagree with me, I hope you can see the irony.
After another memorable performance for Borussia Dortmund, Felix Nmecha took to Instagram to remind everyone where the glory belongs! ✝️
Sharing Psalm 115:1, the German international made it clear that despite the goals, performances and recognition, all the glory belongs to God.
They sentenced her to 14 years in prison using Islamic jurisprudence, even though they knew she was a Christian and she had only advised an adult about her faith, yet the world is silent about it.
Please repost; let the world know.
I’m not a lawyer, but Sam Altman and Dario Amodei may be creating a legal problem for their companies.
If their AI products ever do cause serious harm, these public warnings of theirs could be presented as evidence that the risk was foreseeable and they knew about it.
Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead.
You guys are the frontier. By any reasonable metric — market share, revenue growth, model capability — the two of you have a duopoly on frontier intelligence. You’ve also claimed the lead is widening because of recursive self-improvement.
I don’t see what you see in the lab. If the unreleased models are scary enough that you think you should slow down, I support your decision to be responsible.
But stop pretending you need anyone else’s permission. Stop pretending antitrust law has to be suspended so you can form a cartel. Stop pretending you need a regulatory approval process that supersedes product liability. Stop pretending METR is independent when it is intertwined with Anthropic’s investors and staff. Stop pretending you need those same evaluators to police competitors who aren’t even at the frontier.
Most of all, stop pretending the motivation to slow down is purely altruistic. You face massive product-liability exposure if your products enable a truly damaging cyberattack. The market already punishes models that behave in unpredictable or unauthorized ways. After the Hugging Face episode, it is simply good business for OpenAI and Anthropic to trade some raw power for reliability and predictability. Call it alignment if you want. It is also just giving customers what they want.
Pacing the frontier would also create breathing room for a more intelligent conversation about regulation than Bernie Sanders’ “shut it all down.” China is very unlikely to join a global agreement, as you know, and that has to be taken into account as well.
So go ahead and pace the frontier. You are the ones setting it. The easiest way not to build superintelligence is for you to agree not to build it. Demanding your preferred regulatory framework as the price of that will look like blackmail of the public and the political system. So just do it.
If you do, you’ll buy goodwill for the next conversation. If you don’t, we’ll know this was just another bid for regulatory capture — or an election-season psyop.
@GuaZhu92@Rasmus_MunchS@btbsoco Is Singapore a nation? Or the US? Or was the Ancient Rome a nation, despite being populated and led by nationals of conquered lands or former auxiliaries in the army?
@ZubyMusic Problem is that it won’t fail obviously enough for them to accept it as a failure. There will be so many unintended consequences which they will blame on others.
