RFK Jr just gave the speech of the year. Agree with him or not, he is intelligent, honest, and has the integrity to make positive and substantive changes. We need to jettison the boat anchor that the Ukraine war has become. If his support for Trump facilitates this, God bless him
@shanaka86 He can't manipulate Anthropic.
Xai no longer needs his money.
That leaves OpenAI, which is hemorrhaging money and customers.
The real threat is not his ability to shut down a model.
It's his ability to corrupt yet another sector and destroy innovation in the process
@shanaka86 You missed the real story.
1. Sam Altman was in DC last week, begging for a bailout.
2. Trump announced the govt should take an equity stake in AI.
Trump wants to pick the winner in the AI race.
But more importantly, he wants his family and friends to make a nice profit.
@TheGeorgePu Once again, our friends in DC have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
First, chips, now LLMs.
We're giving the market to China on a silver platter.
特朗普是真他妈大傻瓜
@BenSanf0rd@firstadopter I think you're missing a key point. Pete Hegseth and the DOD branded Anthropic a security risk precisely because Anthropic would not let DOD use their products in autonomous weapons.
This decision has nothing to do with the actual risk of Fable and everything to do with revenge
@poezhao0605 Once again, the Trump administration has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
First, chips. Now, LLMs.
They never learn.
It was already a losing proposition bc of the cost differential. Now they handed market share to China.
On a silver platter.
@daniel_mac8 I like your logic. But we're talking about the same administration that:
- Set Nvidia up to lose all mkt share in China.
- Inadvertently set up Huawei Ascend to be a competitive GPU
- Destroyed Iran's military not once but 3 times and still can't keep the SoH open
@thearslaniqbal@shanaka86 Give me a break. There are only 2 possibilities.
One of them is going hat in hand for a bailout bc anthropic is eating their lunch.
The other just had the world's largest IPO.
sama is evil and karma will prevail.
The other guy isn't much better.
@shanaka86 3. Just like recent advances by Huawei and other Chinese companies in the chip sector, this decision leaves the door wide open for Chinese LLM providers to fill the gap, which they will no doubt do.
