Don't start to rely on it . The US might remove access next month in a fit of pique. The Chinese models look increasingly more reliable and safer.

This is a pithy internet comment, but terrible advice. Between the Chinese government and Anthropic, I know which one I'd rather send tokens to. For all of the problems of the US, for-profit corporations, data harvesting, etc. the CCP (and, perhaps more troublesome, its allies) is far less likely to align with your interests.

You don’t have to run the chinese models in chinese data centers as many of them are open weights. Some could say that trumps both.

Just because a policy is legal doesn't mean it cannot be disastrous.

"disastrous" seems hyperbolic to me. what disaster do you foresee?

Foreseeable corruption by the state. A further slip into cronyism. A large puzzle piece that when simply connected with the recent actions like demanding shares in companies, removing funding for energy projects not aligned with other lobbies, pardoning of white collar criminals. It seems pretty plain and obvious the type of disasters that await.

Next time someone tells you this is the party of free market and small government, I guess you just laugh now?

The authority under which this was done has been operative and actively used for several decades. It isn't a partisan issue, it is a policy of American governance. Anyone that has worked on frontier "dual use" technologies will be familiar with the legal regime. The only thing that changed is people are writing articles about it in the news media.

Jumping in to reflexively defend the admin again, I see.

Is there any policy from this admin you don't support?

But it's not just him, it's the entire party aggressively supporting him and everything he does.

> the entire party aggressively supporting him and everything he does. That's untrue. If you do some homework you will see Republican politicians and the Supreme Court disagreeing on a number of issues. Amongst Republican voters, his approval rating has been sliding and is now below 80% in most polls.

Wow a whole 20% of dissent. Impressive.

> the perception of political decision making The what? More like "the whims of an eighty year old in cognitive decline and those wishing to curry or keep his favor" - quite an expansive definition of "political decision making".

> More like "the whims of an eighty year old in cognitive decline..." The previous administration was totally not exactly what's described here...

It wasn’t. Biden largely didn’t do much. The trump administration does illegal things that get struck down in courts on a daily basis. We’re all very desensitized to it.

But yes, Biden was old and cognitively not well. But his “whims” didn’t exist much, and they were always fairly reasonable. Trump is the most unreasonable president, most likely in US history. I would even categorize Andrew Jackson as more restrained.

Covid vaccines are very safe and saved lots of lives. That’s what actual research shows, not your delusions. I’m biochemistry phd so yeah, step up.

Math please? Specifically citing the research that the FDA cited from the NEJoM. Please include the published injury rate, and the published efficacy. If you can't make a point with the math, then don't bother replying. My invitation is to discuss with scientists, to be clear. CNN is not qualified as a scientific body, despite claiming to be. I'm aware that most of the US believes that CNN is the arbiter of science.…

But you did not make any point, you keep using buzzword without referencing any data. You did not even link exact study you are talking about (there are lots of nejm covid studies…). You did not reference a single number. So please, if you want math actually make your point without bullshit about me consuming media etc.

We don’t have to guess. Democrats had a pragmatic policy under Biden — which was rescinded by Trump when he took office. https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-room/statement...

Marc Andreesen has first-hand knowledge that absolutely refutes what you are saying. The Democratic party is more anti-ai than the Republican party and unfortunately both of them are increasingly responding to astroturfed populism. Do you think Bernie Sanders in AOC are pro-ai? Are you kidding me? Have you seen what they say and the legislation they propose?

Yes, but they’re proposing legislation. Trump is legislating from the White House, through a series of bribes and corrupt conduct.

Not even on the same playing field. They just can’t be compared, they’re incomparable.
