@theomobible @CSLewisDaily A stranger that has zero intention of assimilation or being open to the culture in which they are invited into, is NOT a stranger. They are an invader & have no reverence for life different than their own.

Blind naivete about intentions, beliefs, & actions of strangers is folly.

@CSLewisDaily An Invader, whose intent is to murder & destroy, is not a stranger.

@BWBooks did you know what Anthropic was intending? You USED TO BE by go to site for used book, I always recommend you. But if you knew and did it for a quick profit, never again!

[Barbarian Herodotus @BBHerodotus]

After seeing a post on it yesterday, I’ve looked more deeply into Anthropic’s purchasing and destruction of millions of used books.

They spent tens of millions of dollars acquiring and destroying books to train their AI model, Claude.

They knew, from the beginning that it would be unpopular. They knew what they were doing, was wrong.

An internal memo from 2024 stated:

“Project Panama is our effort to destructively scan all the books in the world.”

“We don’t want it to be known that we are working on this.”

Why used books?

Companies like Anthropic and Meta found it impractical to gain permission from authors and publishers to use their work.

So instead, they stole their work to train their product through mass purchases of used books and through pirating them from the internet.

The authors of these works, didn’t receive a dime for their efforts. These companies stole the hard won literary talent of others to train machines to replace the victims of their theft.

Anthropic cofounder Ben Mann personally downloaded countless books for this purpose from LibGen, a book pirating website.

When a new book piracy website debuted in 2022, Mann sent an email sharing the link with his employees stating: “just in time!!!”

Meta employees were wary about the piracy of books, with one engineer writing, “Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right.”

Anthropic purchased millions of books, in batches of tens of thousands from Better World Books and U.K.-based World of Books.

They then used a “hydraulic powered cutting machine” to slice off the spines of these books before scanning them. Finally, the remains of these books were picked up for recycling.

Feel free to use AI, it’s a free country.

But remember that, if you use Claude, that Anthropic has committed a great wrong, and they knew that they were doing it from the beginning.

Below is an image, from a court case, of a warehouse full of used books, that instead of being held and read by you and your children, have been destroyed forever.

AI is inevitable, but spend your money on the companies who do good, and do not knowingly commit evils.

May the most moral company win.

Interested in The Odyssey? Watch my reading vlog before you mistake the DEI slop that is Nolan's desecration of Homer and Greek mythology. Read the Fagles translation, not the DEI politics of Wilson.

In an increasingly tight economy, meals take up a larger percentage of the budget monthly it feels like. Meal planning is one way to gain control of the costs.

These two things have A LOT in common.

*Poor casting.
*Poor writing.
*Poor costume design.
*No respect whatsoever for the source material.

Just to name a few....

@jeffreytucker Translation: Nolan has no backbone and "winning Oscars" is paramount and everything and everyone else be damned.

Spineless coward deserves the backlash he is receiving. He made the decision, he reaps the rewards.

[Nard @Narddog4747]

It’s certifiably insane that the majority of the public doesn’t even bat an eye at this.

A foreign born Indian is CEO of America’s 4th largest tech company. Hires another foreign born Indian as CEO of America’s largest gaming company. The CEOs jointly fire Americans, replacing Americans with Indian employees.

Thousands of Americans losing high paying jobs, being kicked down the socioeconomic ladder. With Indians hired as replacements, the money and resources from those jobs that would’ve gone to our citizens will be siphoned by foreigners, mostly to be sent back to India as a remittance. It will leave and never come back to America.

This is definitionally a form of warfare against the American public.

[Claire Taylor 🇬🇧ioekah Lumish , ( Alcyone ) @ClaireT13274488]

"Your great-grandmother was not trying to manifest a beach vacation. She was not curating an aesthetic. She was not optimizing...anything. She had a list, and the list was short, and the list was sacred.

A full pantry. Healthy children. A roof that did not leak. A husband who came home. A garden that produced. A few good dresses. A reliable stove. Sunday dinner with people she loved. Enough flour for the week and enough kindness for the neighbors.

That was the whole dream. That was the whole life. And by the standards of most of human history, achieving that list was a roaring success.

Then the twentieth century happened, and somebody figured out that a woman who is content is terrible for business. A woman with a full pantry is not running to the store. A woman who is satisfied with her kitchen is not redoing it every four years. A woman who knows what enough looks like cannot be sold the next thing.

So they got to work. They made the small house embarrassing. They made the old car embarrassing. They made the home-cooked meal embarrassing, and then when nobody knew how to cook anymore they sold it back as a meal kit with a celebrity chef on the box. They raised the cost of living until both parents had to work, and then they sold daycare and convenience food and weekend therapy to fix the exhaustion that working both jobs created in the first place.

They took your great-grandmother's list and called it poverty. They took her life and called it limited. They took her contentment and called it a lack of ambition.

And then they sold you ambition. They sold you a bigger house you cannot clean, a car you cannot pay off, a wardrobe you do not wear, a calendar you cannot survive, and a vague constant feeling that you are still falling behind.

You are not falling behind. You are running a race that was designed to have no finish line. The race itself is the product.
