It is absolutely fine to distill the IP of everyone else, but you'd be violating the TOS to distill ours :)
It's utterly bonkers. Hopefully the model weights get leaked. Then we can claim it's public domain or, at the very least, distill it and then release it for free.
This is a fun peek into the economic implications of RSI/ASI. Because it's so infinitely valuable that it basically destroys all markets, labs will eventually do stuff like stop releasing models completely and skipping out on contracted commitments because they'll have the power to just drive their competitors out of business before the legal battle gets expensive. Cloud providers - at first smaller ones, then the hy…
Nothing is infinitely valuable.
This gets very close to "infinitely valuable", it starts to look like a vertical line to me
It is very difficult to see this move as anything other than Anthropic pulling the ladder up behind itself. They can dress it up in "safety" all they want, I find it hard to interpret this in a charitable way. This reminds me of how dark-pattern common wisdom in Web 1.0 website development was to ban external links. Then how social apps prevented the export of data and actively worked to nerf significant interoperabi…

I don't think this scenario makes sense. It's one of a class of scenarios I've seen several of, that simultaneously assume: A) ASI is developed and massively overshadows the rest of the world economy B) the world still has rule of law, contracts, business, well-developed finance, etc You can get to a lot of weird conclusions if you assume both A and B, but I think the much more likely scenario is that if A happens, B…

> Demand open source approve licenses for LLM weights. How would you solve, for instance, the problem in which AI models are capable of helping the average person build viruses (computer or human)? "YOLO" is not a reasonable answer here. I am a massive advocate of Open Source, and have been for 25+ years. These things should not exist, open or otherwise.
Building a virus, on your own network, probably isn't a crime. We already have all kinds of laws to catch and punish people when they cause harm.

It turns out the most dangerous thing is competition.
Wow, this is like saying: > If you buy a car from us, you agree not use it driving to and from work that involves automotive R&D that might compete with our product. And if our (heavily spying) car detects you are violating this, it will slow down to 20mph and cannot be made to go any faster, until we are sure the violation has ceased. Or > If you buy a laptop from us, you agree not to use it to study or acquire any…
If your car slows down to 20mph you'd instantly know. If Claude silently switches to dumb mode, you might not even realize.

I don't think you understand the hypothetical being discussed
You're confusing 'didn't understand it' with 'didn't buy it.' Only one of those is a comprehension issue, and it's not mine.
