    this type of individualist responsibility diffusion is exactly why nothing happens in the US, & why France has protests the second the govt does anything bad. no one is asking you …

    I think Google's branding was starting to be too poor in AI to get top talent, they needed the refresh

    here at 0.5 tok/s, it's like getting 1/100 of a tomato for your lunch per hour, and you can't just let it grow, you have to look at it growing just as you're about to eat, and it d…

    paying for the hardware is also too expensive for no reason, you're not querying the llm 24/7. Better use a service that hosts a lot of popular open weights LLMs, unless you have a…

    You couldn't possibly successfully do clever hans for novel mathematical proofs and counter-examples that don't exist yet, however here we are. Generalization in successful results…

    It's just a way to get visibility. A Canadian apology to Lady Gaga while she's being interviewed.

    No one in the field itself takes Musk seriously, or sees him as part of it. I think he's a Nazi and an idiot. You're weird if you trust what the leader of DOGE, sig heiler and make…

    Do you want companies to have incentives to pay researchers even if NDAs and non competes are basically unenforceable? Do you want any communication of knowledge from corporations?…

    It's harder for them to argue you were actively destroying evidence; you could say that you had written the wipe pin there for a legitimate use case like both your wallet and your …

    creating a convincing and actually safe innocuous mode is probably harder than it sounds in practice

    Not arguing for the morality of it, but if we're going by the law because that's what you're using in your comment ("don't I own" which only matters wrt the law), then you explicit…

    There's no real way to compete with someone who gets the output of your own work for almost free in comparison. I sympathize with the argument saying that they ripped the whole Int…

    It's about the claim of whether these companies could develop a similarly powerful model without larger companies building their own first, which is an important point, and it's li…
