Or any software made by a natural monopoly in the states. ISPs in particular might be the most embarrassing. Healthcare industry is pretty bad too.

> working for a Silicon Valley company you might have health insurance options, but that doesn’t mean they’re any good

I'd love to hear about people working in 'tech' who don't have decent health insurance options. If that's you, where do you work and what do you do?

> preexisting condition

Not with ACA compliant plans

There's concierge services for this kind of data removal. At a certain level of wealth I assume there are teams working on this with lawyers 24/7.

Sure if you assume the worst. And if that's the case AI has nothing to do with it.

> Given two people, one a manipulative antivaxxer and one not: are you saying you don't factor your view on their anti-vaxx thoughts into their recommendations on other fact-based topics?

Manipulative is a judgement on a person. That aside, let's say the person is a NFL quarterback. No, their stance on immunology would not play a role in their authority on NFL strategy... you know, the domain they are an expert in.

The inventor of the MRI was a young earth creationist. Perhaps a rare oddity, but just an example of how someone who works in science can still be passionately wrong about something despite evidence to the contrary.

Respectfully, your comment I replied to was very much this. Your dismissal is based on the person rather than the substance... on the basis of their political opinion in a completely unrelated field. Being wrong, and an asshole, about one thing doesn't make one wrong about everything else by association.

Ignoring dhh because he's offensive is totally reasonable and if that's what you meant well that's different.

Apparently somewhere between a third to a half of American scientists believe in some kind of god. Not to denegrate those who believe, but that's some kind of compartmentalization going on. Politics isn't any different. I dunno, I guess I don't have much issue listening to people with whom I disagree. Some people just get stuck on things. I do to, and maybe I'm the one that's wrong.

I get what you're saying and I myself am guilty of surface level learning. But the idea that students should consume all the information is impractical. Learning what is acceptable to discard is part of being a student. I imagine very few students read every college text book cover to cover.

Beyond that people have different motivations and goals and only a limited time to achieve them. Basically I wouldn't be so quick to judge. Plenty of students have dropped out and gone on to do impressive things and that's a bit beyond reading only the abstract for a few assignments.

It's pretty unclear because they have two somewhat competing sets of documentation but I believe using the agent sdk with a harness like pi is not against the ToS if it's for yourself.

omp is definitely against ToS though

Both can be true

They have the logs, created a report and sent a letter to Congress. Whether you believe it is entirely up to you. Given Chinese firms record on IP theft, it's entirely believable. I don't have any doubts, but I might question how they attribute it to a specific firm.

A summary is about utility. They are definitely missing something but that doesn't mean what they are missing is useful to them at that time.

Why wouldn't he? If there really was 25,000 accounts breaking ToS any CEO would at minimum be upset. Evidence of Claude distilling qwen would be damning but that a) makes no sense b) doesn't exist afaik.
