@chrisportela@HelloIAmAntoine@itsolelehmann Yeah, i'm not dismissing the legal reality there. I'm only saying that they like it as it is. Have to agree they'd avoid the PR issue, or at least take action enough to reduce it to an "acceptable level"
Please realize that Dario's views go far beyond opposing open-weight models. He doesn't want any model to exist, open or closed, that doesn't conform to his view of safety.
These safety standards include cybersecurity capabilities and automated AI R&D.
Those of us bitterly opposed to communism fall into two different groups.
A) Those who argue that it must be abandoned because it has show us that it doesn’t work.
B) Those of us that are so bitterly opposed to collectivism applied to dissenting individuals that we are relieved that it *cannot* work. A happy accident. Those who don’t care if it *could* be made to work: we’d continue to fight it. Working or not working is irrelevant. It’s just bad. Period. The end.
If Communism could actually be shown to deliver stable high levels of growth and innovation, broadly distributed, with low inequality,
I believe I would still fight it to my dying breath.
My opposition to communism has little to nothing to do with the fact that it doesn’t work as an economic system. So, it’s merely a relief that it doesn’t work. A convenience for its opposition.
Communism and collectivism are intrinsically soul killing for people who are hyper-individualistic . So let’s stop hiding behind the fact that they don’t work as economic or governance systems.
Some of us who aren’t the biggest fans of naked capitalism red of tooth and claw, hate communism not because we think capitalism is intrinsically fair. It isn’t. We oppose it because communism hunts the individual.
For us, It’s not communism vs capitalism. That is a businessman’s argument. Instead, it’s communism vs individualism for me. Show me a system that fights harder to let a dissenting individual thrive more than brutal market capitalism (which also barely works), and I am all ears.
Not everything is a market after all.

“Safe” AI models:

@hnfong@gonglei89 I think the idea of "history repeats itself" gives many too much confidence. I think his distinction between "incidental" and "structural" is key, but I'd argue that "incidental" is like the match you can't predict and "structural" is the gasoline.
“Exact same brain waves.”
What does that even mean?
Alpha? Beta? Theta? Delta? At rest? During sleep? During a cognitive task?
Neuroscience isn’t a collection of buzzwords. If you’re going to make scientific claims, at least define what you’re measuring.
@md97568@_Credible_Hulk I might have other criticisms about China, but the results speak for themselves for sure - life is better than before and that prosperity is a thing to celebrate. There are certainly aspects which the West would probably do well to replicate in some form or another.
@md97568@_Credible_Hulk I think part of the problem is a matter of how East vs West use terms such as communism and capitalism, and how the nuance is lost with those terms.
Sorry, It's difficult to express my full thoughts with the character limit...
@md97568@_Credible_Hulk It's prob a pretty good way to describe it, they call it "socialist market economy" I think? My earlier point was more to do with that there are still robust private enterprise & some form of quasi-property ownership, with central planning and such.
@md97568@_Credible_Hulk If there is a "retard" it is the one who appeals to authority mindlessly and can't even stay on topic, easily triggered and quick to insult. And sure doesn't seem like its me here.
@Cthulhu_OwO He is assumably right about TOS, but wrong on his main point. People have to remember the primary purpose for CP laws - preventing the production of it involving real children. Idt that taking down an fiction/art site is really the big accomplishment they feel it is.
@ProjectAnCom No, theft is taking of property without consent. Property is ownership of something for which the individual can enjoy. Any successful society has some form of property, even the "socialist" ones.
