While not surprising at the least, it still kind of crazy that literal pdf files in charge is not concerning, but this is. I just hope something happens to USA before it can do damage to the world.
What PDFs are you referring to? Do Anthropic or other LLMs using PDFs as some kind of 'SOUL.md' file or for training?
The US is not the only country in the world so the idea that humanity as a whole could somehow regulate this process seemed silly to me.
Even if you got the whole US tech community and the US government on board, there are 6.7bn other people in the world working in unrelated systems, enough of whom are very smart

can't say paedophile on YouTube so people say PDF file
How is this article not going to even mention the recent threats to Anthropic from the Government?!
The whole "safety" debate was always nonsense and I'm not sure how so many people got caught up in it.

What would safety applied to the leading 3 mean to you anyways ?

Foundational model provider manifesto: ‘While there’s value in safety, we value the Pentagon’s dollars more’
It turns out the biggest threat to AI safety is capitalism, who would have thought
Ah, the classic AI startup lifecycle: We must build a moat to save humanity from AI. Please regulate our open-source competitors for safety. Actually, safety doesn't scale well for our Q3 revenue targets.

Maybe it's how blunt this comment is that gets it downvoted, but I don't disagree.
No, it’s because it shows either a simplistic or needlessly confrontational view of the world. Unless you’re independently wealthy (as some in HN are), you have to balance your morals, your views of how things should work, feeding your family, and recognizing that you may not actually know everything. It’s easy to sit back and advise others that they should die on every single hill. But it’s not especially insightful…
Just because a comment is short, sharp, and to the point doesn't mean the author hasn't thought out why that's their view.
No one knows everything, that's certainly why I'm on hacker news. I'm here to learn and expand my knowledge. Unfortunately a lot of people on here would rather driveby-downvote than have a discussion to find out why a person might have an opinion like that expressed by the OP.
I tend to abandon account when/if I get enough karma to be able to down vote. I'd rather not have to temptation of dismissing someone that way. It's quite liberating... Is it worth my time to respond? No, move on; yes, let's discuss. Maybe they'll change my mind...
