They made it open source. Are you just trying to be bad faith here? Isn't this what the community was asking for?

This is clearly a good-faith criticism and there is no lens in which I could see it described as bad-faith.

We see this pattern all the time: Someone makes a criticism of a Musk product, and someone assails that criticism with bad-faith accusations of it being "bad-faith".

Oftentimes, we see that the criticism is undermeasured and ligther than is reasonable, possibly anticipating someone who might accuse it of being "bad faith".

Maybe someone can put a name to this phenomenon but we see it all the time.

This is not the right thing, this is the tactical thing. If you have an LLM with less than 1% of the share to begin with, you suffer from bad rep and you got caught uploading user data, one of the very few remaining tactical moves to try to climb out of it is this.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The Chinese are surely less evil than Anthropic, OpenAI and/or Google, at this stage at least.

You’ve got to be kidding me. Last I checked, Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google haven’t systematically exterminated an entire culture of people.

In no way are you being intellectually honest if you think that hamfisted system prompt push to prod manipulation was an attempt to squash bias. And again, whataboutism doesn't make xAI better because others are doing bad, too. You asked for evidence of xAI untrustworthiness and received it.

What is worse a "hamfisted system prompt push to prod" or a system and organization built to enforce systematic bias in the name of anti-bias?

I see your hamfisted cropping of my quote to downplay xAI's actions, since you brought up intellectual honesty.

Why do we have to quantity badness? The question you posed was what has xAI done to be perceived as untrustworthy? Stop trying to whatabout Google here. I'm no friend of theirs, it's simply irrelevant.

Has anyone tried building from source? The commit message says "initial sync from the monorepo." Is this even compilable without the rest of the source code?

yup you can compile, we tested and made sure all the features work before posting
