<p>>but for some reason AI has become a real wedge for people<p>Well yeah, for most other technologies, the pitch isn't "We're training an increasingly powerful machine to do people's jobs! Every day it gets better at doing them! And as a bonus, it's trained on terabytes of data we scraped from books and the Internet, without your permission. What? What happens to your livelihood when it succeeds? That's not my department".</p>

<p>Not OP, but my opinion is that if a platform wants to do so, then I have zero issues with that, unless they hold a vast majority of market share for a certain medium and have no major competition.<p>But the government should stay out of it.</p>

<p>"Where's the limiting principle here?"<p>How about "If the content isn't illegal, then the government shouldn't pressure private companies to censor/filter/ban ideas/speech"?<p>And yes, this should apply to everything from criticizing vaccines, denying election results, being woke, being not woke, or making fun of the President on a talk show.<p>Not saying every platform needs to become like 4chan, but if one wants to be, the feds shouldn't interfere.</p>

( @ByrneStorm ) and Coleman Law, P.C. ( @RonColeman ) represent 4chan Community Support LLC ("4chan").<p>According to press reports, the U.K. Office of Communications ("Ofcom") has issued a provisional notice under the Online Safety Act alleging a contravention by 4chan and indicating an intention to impose a penalty of £20,000, plus daily penalties thereafter.<p>4chan is a United States company, incorporated in Delaware, with no establishment, assets, or operations in the United Kingdom. Any attempt to impose or enforce a penalty against 4chan will be resisted in U.S. federal court.<p>American businesses do not surrender their First Amendment rights because a foreign bureaucrat sends them an e-mail. Under settled principles of U.S. law, American courts will not enforce foreign penal fines or censorship codes.<p>If necessary, we will seek appropriate relief in U.S. federal court to confirm these principles.<p>United States federal authorities have been briefed on this matter.<p>The Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, was reportedly warned by the White House to cease targeting Americans with U.K. censorship codes (according to reporting in the Telegraph on July 30th).<p>Despite these warnings, Ofcom continues its illegal campaign of harassment against American technology firms. A political solution to this matter is urgently required and that solution must come from the highest levels of American government.<p>We call on the Trump Administration to invoke all diplomatic and legal levers available to the United States to protect American companies from extraterritorial censorship mandates.<p>Our client reserves all rights."</p>

<p>What is so interesting to me is that the reasoning traces for these often have the correct answer, but the model fails to realize it.<p>Problem 3 ("Dry Eye"), R1: "Wait, maybe "cubitus valgus" – no, too long. Wait, three letters each. Let me think again. Maybe "hay fever" is two words but not three letters each. Maybe "dry eye"? "Dry" and "eye" – both three letters. "Dry eye" is a condition. Do they rhyme? "Dry" (d-rye) and "eye" (i) – no, they don't rhyme. "Eye" is pronounced like "i", while "dry" is "d-rye". Not the same ending."<p>Problem 8 ("Foot nose"), R1: "Wait, if the seventh letter is changed to next letter, maybe the original word is "footnot" (but that's not a word). Alternatively, maybe "foot" + "note", but "note" isn't a body part."</p>
