I’d argue that an armed uprising would have a greater effect than a smaller internet-based boycott but I’m just some random guy on some niche internet forum so… who’s to say?
Canada recently has had its 2nd worst school shooting ever. The killer had many interactions with ChatGPT that warranted banning her account. A whistleblower has claimed that they wanted to inform Canada’s police force of these comments but were denied by ChatGPT’s management.
They had a chance to stop the death of 8 people, most of which were young children, but failed to do anything.
FUCK CHATGPT AND THOSE BASTARDS THAT RUN IT
Sam Altman is objectively a bad human being.
Sam Altman is just some fail upward money guy, he’s been eventually removed from basically every prior position he has held.
Seems like his career has largely been lying and making impossible promises, so. The folks who do that well always manage to exit the stage before the magic tincture is revealed to just be piss 🤷♂️
It’s because this administration wants to use AI/ML to create a list of domestic strike targets based on people who have said things dumpy doesn’t like.
Glad that I’ve switched platforms. sam altman should probably be in prison or something.
I’ve been using Venice lately, they claim (I have done zero research to determine if this is true) that they’re privacy focused. They do run uncensored models, which is a big plus.
That said, I find myself using the lying machine less these days. It was like a fun video game when I first got my hands on it, entertaining for a while, and I’m moving on. Maybe I’m not imaginative enough to use it to the fullest potential, but I’m having more fulfillment actually writing and actually drawing (even though I am very bad at both).
I am canceling my subscription now. Fuckers.
Yea, I can just imagine OpenAI is really struggling with their business decision.
On the one hand, they have multi-billion dollar contracts with the US Military that will make them all fabulously wealthy beyond their wildest dreams.
On the other, they have a handful of individuals leaving that might amount to a few thousand dollars of lost revenue.
Gosh, it must sure have been a tough choice.
So many companies are cozying up to the fascist regime as this is the late stage of capitalism.
A list of some of these companies: https://x.com/vxunderground/status/2024200204296061089?s=20
he/she says, and posts a link to one of those companies …
List is hosted on a facism aligned owner’s misinformation site
Ok
Your link isn’t valid.
I’ve been “canceling” them since they first showed up and I used it for 5 minutes and realized how terrible it is, but nice to see others catching up.
Not a great look, no.
I cannot believe this is what it took for a boycott to go more mainstream. Tell me more about how so many people have no respect for the environment or the artists who’s work they gleefully consume.
Anthropic still is scum for being completely fine helping America oppress the rest of the world.
Anthropic is scum, accepting money from foreign dictators, forcing their software on minorities while insisting it was conscious and had emotions just like them, praising the Trump administration, making up scary stories to get more funding…
…In many ways, they’re worse than OpenAI. They’re just running with the same playbook that Sam Altman used to use to pretend he was a good guy.
They insisted Claude was human?
Sorry, not quite, but close. From 404 media
When users confronted Clinton with their concerns, he brushed them off, said he would not submit to mob rule, and explained that AIs have emotions and that tech firms were working to create a new form of sentience, according to Discord logs and conversations with members of the group.
Oh, that guy! To be fair, that’s one employee, not Anthropic’s actions or position. You mentioned forcing their software on minorities while insisting it was better than it was, and I was getting OLPC flashbacks. But Anthropic looking for funding in the UAE and Qatar is shitty. I can’t seem to find anything about whether or not they went through with those contracts.
Jason Clinton is Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer. That means Jason knew better, and he was using his position as a moderator (and supposedly a security expert) to try gaslighting a vulnerable minority into believing his favorite toy was “secure” when it was not.
I mean, I’m not gonna defend him. But fucking up a discord that you’re a mod of isn’t really in the same ballpark as taking money from dictators or directing fully autonomous strikes. Also, from the read, it really sounds like that Deputy CISO was a prime example of cyber-psychosis, or AI mania, or whatever we’ve decided to call it. And I assume he is part of the same vulnerable minority?
mainstream
I’ll believe that when my sisters start saying this. Till then, it’s just us privacy fans screaming in a dark cave, enjoying the echo.
It’s always like this. We get a ton of articles on how everyone is suddenly boycotting/deleting [insert thing] but when you ask someone in real life, they usually have no idea what you’re talking about.
so explain it to them gently. you won’t reach everyone, but you’ll reach more people than accepting this status quo
whoosh
Use for “all lawful means” is quite the grey area considering no one was arrested or fired, or any law updated, for what Snowden leaked. If the NSA does it, no one will arrest the NSA.
I laughed when I read “all lawful means.”
Those are almost the exact words that you’re supposed to use for a NFA form 1 / 4 when registering certain types of firearms / firearms parts that require a tax stamp, and additional scrutiny.
When I did my SBR registration, it was “all lawful purposes…” but fuck, close enough…
They went from standing with Anthropic to throwing them under the bus real fast
About half a day.
They probably have been working on a potential agreement with openai for a while now. They just hastily finished it in response to anthropic. But I don’t know if they will keep the red lines anthropic has demanded in place
They won’t.
$$$
Which they badly need, they are in an incredibly risky position right now. It’s very disappointing, this deal might save them from collapse for quite a while.
The only disappointment, is that Altmans head is still attached to his shoulders.
Altman is a symptom, not the problem. The problem is capitalism.
That’s very true; I still would love to see him guillotined.
No, no, even if we get that wish I dont want the US state propping up AI longer
It was always about the money.
