We’ll have to accept that some of the things that make discussions worthwhile; shared context, the presumption of good faith, the absence of audience performance, and the ability to change one’s mind; simply don’t scale well with thousands of people.
It was a good experiment.
I’ve had a number of conversations with folks inside and outside government about the current situation with Anthropic, and here is what I believe to be true:
— As we know, Anthropic publicly released its Mythos class models earlier this week under the commercial name Fable.
— Fable is Mythos with guardrails. But if those guardrails fail, then you’ve exposed Mythos and its advanced cyber capabilities to people who shouldn’t have them. (Keep in mind that Anthropic itself widely promoted the idea that Mythos was a cyberweapon and needed to be regulated as such. They asked for government regulation of Mythos and championed the guardrails on Fable. If there is a vulnerability — big or small — it is Anthropic’s responsibility to patch.)
— A highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG who was testing Fable came forward with a jailbreak of those guardrails. The Admin asked Dario to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused.
— In their blog post, Anthropic defended its decision by saying the jailbreak isn’t serious. That is not what the trusted partner and the USG believe; nor is that kind of minimizing language consistent with Anthropic’s brand as the AI safety company. It’s difficult to fathom how they could claim a jailbreak allowing operability of a cyber weapon could be defined as not “serious.”
— In the past, Anthropic has always said that safety must be top priority and taken super seriously. In this case, Anthropic prioritized the continued offering of the consumer model over safety.
— In reaction, the Admin issued the export control. The Admin did this reluctantly. It’s been very surprised that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to cooperate with a reasonable safety request (ie fixing the jailbreak issue). Anthropic’s reaction is very much at odds with their branding and ethos as a safe AI research community.
— The Admin’s hope now is that Anthropic remediates the safety issue, the export control is lifted, and Fable goes back into general release. The Admin wants all of this to happen as soon as possible. It is frankly bewildered that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to comply with safety requests that it previously said were its highest priority.
— Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong. The Admin values Anthropic’s technical capabilities and feels that this issue, while serious, should be easily resolved. The ball is in Anthropic’s court.
Every successful society needs a decent dose of both sides to grow and for the people to benefit from the prosperity. And this seesaw between capitalism/socialism proponents will always be a part of discourse till humans vanish.
France with far more welfarism has found a way to outgrow UK even if it's a pitiful <2% growth. It might be an issue, but there must be other contributing problems
Britain is poorer today because it allowed itself to be transformed into a welfare state.
It doesn’t attract the investments needed to generate wealth because the investors don’t believe the ROI is worth it.
Your wages are lesser because investment is lesser.
@timmbach@Dentalgiorgio Nigeria is only capitalist from the lens of government spending as % of gdp.
From the economist lens which is functioning market economy, strong property rights, enforceable contracts & predictable rules basically free market ideology it's far less capitalist.
You’re telling me that after he bought Twitter under the Biden admin and took it private, the government won’t have let him bundle all his private companies together?
As Pa government will step in to stop him from using his own private company to take over another of his private companies? 😂😂😂😂
What game? Today's June 12 and the government has rightly honoured those who fought the military.
Here's Osa facing trial in Abacha's court in Kano, on leg irons!
You people like casting aspersions!
What role did today's politician play yesterday against the military?
@the_amazingama I don't think Morris was asking any questions but rather explaining how the 4400 of the employees became millionaires.
Misattribution, do better
He's also the only winger on the team that can easily switch positions. Sometimes, it feels like we play with two 10s when he's on the pitch which offsets the inadequate creativity and directness in our midfield
Everyday I wish that Trossard is like 25/26yrs old. He might not be flashy or everyone’s favourite but one thing he guarantees are clutch moments. If we need a goal in a crucial game, the person I look up to deliver is Trossard. But I guess it’s time to move on. He will be missed
Murica is a master of entertainment. At the end of this tournament, if something egregious like gun violence doesn't happen, it'll be remembered fondly.
What is surprising is there hasn't been any links to a RB and DM since White and Norgaard will most likely not be playing next season.
Damn, I just realised that we'll be doing a lot of offloading this off-season as hinted by the coach's comment after the PSG loss
I know Ornstein said the signing doesn’t affect other targets but if we’re signing Tzolis then I’m still skeptical if we sign TWO tier A forwards (Rogers + Barcola etc)
Bradley Barcola Situation
• Moussa Sissoko has been trying to renew Bradley Barcola’s contract for the best part of 9-12 months. Talks have been difficult, and it reached a point where both parties agreed to put negotiations on hold so that Barcola and PSG could focus on important fixtures in April and May.
• Soon after the UEFA Champions League final, talks resumed and remain ongoing. The player reportedly told people close to him that he was disappointed not to start a number of important fixtures.
• PSG’s position is clear: renew or we will sell, as his contract expires in June 2028. Personally, I think that is a significant stance for the club to take.
• Barcola’s agent also represents Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué and maintains a good relationship with PSG. The club is also in serious talks regarding Yan Diomande and Maghnes Akliouche, which could further influence the situation surrounding Barcola.
Both Arsenal and Liverpool are interested, but I want to explain Arsenal’s side of the story.
• Andrea Berta made serious enquiries into Barcola’s situation last summer. At the time, Arsenal were informed that the player would stay for at least one more year. Since then, Berta has remained in constant contact with Sissoko and has made it clear that Barcola is of serious interest to Arsenal. He has also asked to be notified if PSG become open to a sale. Should Arsenal make an official approach towards PSG, there will be a further update.
• Arsenal also hold an interest in Morgan Rogers and one other player(sensitive info currently). More on that in due course.
• As always, Andrea Berta is willing to agree personal terms with multiple targets and make a move when the timing suits Arsenal.
Before I sign off, there is something worth noting. Berta is very happy for misinformation to circulate publicly. Berta & Co are busy behind the scenes, and many details remain unknown as Arsenal move silently.
Allow me to provide a free exclusive as an example of that which is unknown. Arsenal made standard checks on Nico Paz. Nico was reportedly left confused following a recent call with Mourinho, although another conversation may be scheduled. Arsenal have also made serious checks on Christos Tzolis, the Greek winger.
My point is that a great deal is happening behind the curtain. Embrace the silence and, as always, choose your sources of information carefully.
