Honestly, if Skynet were possible, Anthropic would probably build it first and claim they had to because OpenAI is bad.
Exactly. This good guy ("AI Safety") versus bad guy is all marketing gimmicks. I'm old enough that it reminds me of Google "don't be evil". What I find worse is that some people actually believe Anthropic are really the good guys.

You should chat with some people involved in AI safety, if you really think it's a farce.
AI safety is important. My point is: you should have zero trust in those companies to actually care about AI Safety besides the marketing and PR aspect of it. Incentives matter.

Anthropic has drawn lines with the most powerful organization in the world, that OpenAI capitulated on within hours for a small contract.
Let me rephrase this. Anthropic played a really well orchestrated marketing gimmick so that they would be in the headlines for a couple days bringing awareness to non-tech people on how they are supposedly the good guys. They then backpedaled all of this and are in contract with the DoD once the headlines passed. But this obviously worked as you now believe they are the good guys
Their red lines are still in place. They are the only AI company with those red lines.
I wonder if the timing of this, coming so soon after the Musk/Anthropic data center deal is just coincidence or not? From Karpathy's various interviews I get the impression that he wants to leave the door open to working for Musk again at some point, perhaps on TeslaBot. With Musk for now regarding Anthropic as a partner (or at least an enemy of his enemy), that seems to mean that Karpathy joining them is less likely…

They didn't backpedal at all, you're spreading FUD. Their red lines are still in place. They are the only AI company with those red lines.
You don't need to live in the bay area, most civilized places on earth let you live a comfortable life with a 10th of the salary, plus you are not selling your soul.
We are doing interesting R&D in other fields too, in places you would never believe.

Who surpassed Tesla that doesn't operate in some very limited region?
Waymo 70k driverless rides a day. Apollo Go 100k driverless rides a day. Tesla 0-5? driverless rides a day.
Sir, please make it easy to break the twitter/x moat. Why don't we have an app that just posts to all the socials like bluesky/mastodon/threads etc

I’m noticing a real disconnect in the user base about this The Claude maximalists that can never see any wrong in anything and the users that care about actual capability These guys are going to be in for a rude awakening when the Chinese are steamrolling us with data centers you can see from space and better models, Amodei will tell you that himself
Hey, it's not like the Chinese have a serious demographic crisis they can't cope with, and their only hope is to significantly increase productivity per worker.

>I believe deeply in the existential importance of using AI to defend the United States and other democracies, and to defeat our autocratic adversaries.
There is no universe where this can be described as anything close to ethical.
