Bad agents already have dozens of zero-days they can use.

Yeah, I think we got so accustomed to that analog look that seeing them like this feels almost like viewing a World War I photo in full color and 4K.

What's gross is that kind of language policing.

Why do you feel good about programming despite not writing in machine code?

I actually thought this was going to be an article about talking with an AI, i.e., something with no feelings, not about interacting with other human beings. Treating all social cushioning as useless noise is simplistic. Communication between humans is not the same as communication with a compiler. The problem is verbosity, and lack of clarity, not politness. Those are different things

Except him being wealthy could just as well be used to support the argument for using GPL instead of gifting. "He does not have to make real money off of it, he is privileged".

If "the solution" depends on people changing their behaviour on their own (ideally by lowering their expectations/do the harder thing/etc), it is almost never "the solution". It is usually just wishful thinking.

What I find surprising is that I knew Altman is a horrible human being and a terrible steward of the AI revolution, yet I still got disappointed.

> You could use exactly the same argument for not bothering about doing things that pollute, generate landfill, or generally make things worse for society.

Which is why those things need laws to create any meaningful change.

Well, perhaps it has something to do with the fact that they started using webviews for stuff like system UI: https://blog.jim-nielsen.com/2022/inspecting-web-views-in-ma...

Genuine question, not trying to throw a shade or anything, but are those cores actually useful with the state of apple intelligence being what it is?

The Anthropic situation with the Department of Defense is the clearest example of the application of 'Everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state', a doctrine that is explicitly fascist.

So if people are still not convinced it might be a good time to reconsider, maybe read a history book or two.

> To counter point, do you think AI companies located on our adversaries turf will take the same stand?

I guess if we are going this way, we might already start building camps for the undesirables, since our adversaries will surely do that too.

They are literally doing what China has already done. In what world would China be a better option here?

Yes, this is more accurate. They are trying to rein in big corporations and make them bend the knee before the government.

tl;dr: All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.
