The ease by which you can get banned worries me. It seems unavoidable that soon AI will manage its own suspicion level, provide feedback on it, and when high enough it will call the authorities.. because that's what people do. Banning doesn't cut it, like you can't deny internet access. Soon this will spiral out of control and AI (Palantir) will have to run the response and the parallel AI state erects itself. A citi…

Preventing crimes before the happen is in general just unquestionably good, about as unambiguous a moral position as being in favour of preventing heart attacks. You might be thinking of punishing for a crime that hasn't yet been committed?

That’s confounding crime and will to hurt, be it oneself or other people, as well as confounding ethical and legal assessment.

Under Nazi government laws, resistance fighters were of course considered criminals. Actually there was effectively a form of "thought crime." The regime did not require actual criminal actions to punish individuals—mere suspicion of disloyalty, lack of enthusiasm for the regime, or even passive resistance was enough to be arrested, imprisoned, or executed.

The video. He’s 6. To you it’s just ChatGPT. To him it’s “magic like the movie”. Update: what video were you referring to? I mean the demo video he posted on Twitter.

okay squidward, stuff from 20 years ago that seemed magic being replicated today with technology is unremarkable and children are just too dumb to understand how boring this is, we get it

It's definitely not. The law is not, and never has been, a moral bar. A healthy legal system requires laws to be able to change over time to reflect society, and sometimes this requires that people be able to break the law.

Sure sure, there are unjust laws whose upholding isn't good, but this are the exceptions allowed for by using "in general" as opposed to "always".

> Fable turned reMarkable into Tom Riddle's diary from Harry Potter Was this posted by AI? The title is exactly backwards compared to the original on the repo "riddle — the diary of Tom Riddle, for the reMarkable Paper Pro"

Likely. Some type of an openclaw script that auto-submits pieces polished by an LLM OBO the user

Whatever man.

If you slap chat GPT on a tablet or a website or a watch or a smart fridge you can make a song and dance about how great it is.

…but bluntly, it would have been impressive 20 years ago.

It is not impressive today; at least, not to me. I’m not 6.

o_O am I missing something? Did you show them the github repo, or the disappointing 5 second video of chat gpt from twitter? I was excited too until I saw it actually running and was like… huh. ChatGPT for tablet. Righto. What was your son so impressed by?

The video. He’s 6. To you it’s just ChatGPT. To him it’s “magic like the movie”. Update: what video were you referring to? I mean the demo video he posted on Twitter.

I think they were referring to HN commenters who seem to skew above six, if not downright post-pubescent.

Every AI would refuse the prompt. I was banned for researching Nordic assisted death and asking which drug exactly they administered (and what quantity). Claude refused, alerted Anthropic, and I was banned a couple days later. Thankfully the appeal form worked, but by then I was using a different Claude account praying they didn’t ban me again. There’s an uncensored model floating around that you can run locally with…

>researching Nordic assisted death and asking which drug exactly they administered (and what quantity). Odd ban. The countries with legally passed instances use similar drugs/processes — you could research about those, wiki, google, actual websites, dignitas et al. No ban needed. Was the ban reason spelt out? Was it your wording?

Wild guess, but even if those creating the filters would agree with you, it doesn’t mean they know how to nerf the system only for the cases they want to actively wipeout.

Replicating handwriting recognition that has been around for 20+ years and arguably doing a worse job at it is a low bar for “magic”

This is all nice for as long there are just _some_ unjust laws, but the means of such enforcement will inevitably be exploited by actually evil people, who given such tool will get you many, many more unjust laws not worth upholding.
