This is so disgusting and enraging. I hope the whole startup community blackballs @sama for this.

#4How about this instead:
How about a requirements that all weights and models for any AI have to be publicly available.
Basically, these companies are trying to set themselves up to the gatekeepers of knowledge. That is too powerful a capability to leave in just the hands of a single company.

Where is the regulatory capture? You might just need to apply for a license. Why is that so horrible?
Most travel agents need a license, taxi drivers etc. Not sure why the same shouldn't apply for "AI"?

There’s similar regulation being proposed in the EU. I wonder if OpenAI is behind it as well.

#9Imagine thinking that regression based function approximators are capable of anything other than fitting the data you give it. Then imagine willfully hyping up and scaring people who don't understand, and because it can predict words you take advantage of the human tendency to anthropomorphize, so it follows that it is something capable of generalized and adaptable intelligence.
Shame on all of the people involved in this: the people in these companies, the journalists who shovel shit (hope they get replaced real soon), researchers who should know better, and dementia ridden legislators.
So utterly predictable and slimy. All of those who are so gravely concerned about "alignment" in this context, give yourselves a pat on the back for hyping up science fiction stories and enabling regulatory capture.
