CEOs will only pursue profit, unless they are afraid of the consequences, seems most people forgot about that. We need more Legislation.. and Maybe some national heroes..

I was taught that leaders are only respectful of their constituents when they are within “strangling distance”; they should be literally afraid of the consequences of their actions.

By freedom you mean freedom to invade other countries? Then don't be surprised those other countries fight back.

Have we invaded China?

You might want to read about before WWII

Eight-Nation Alliance (1900)

What an annoying company, I wish it didn't exist..

> If you take avoiding cyberattack uplift seriously as a goal

This "uplift" risk obviously excludes the US. The goal of this is that the US bandits (like NSA) will find exploits and attack other countries (classic US behaviour), but these other countries can't be allowed to defend against these attacks. NSA/CIA thugs are "trusted", foreign defenders in sanctioned countries will of course be "untrusted".


Was the condition of being granted early access to this castrated model writing a post praising it?

> The purpose of life is reproduction

There's no "purpose" of life, it just happens, it's physics.

> I am a very successful and wealthy entrepreneur

So now imagine you're not, and your life sucks because of such "successful and wealthy entrepreneurs" sucking all the wealth.

If your life is shit, you naturally don't want to make it even shittier just so you can produce people whose life will also be shit (thanks to the class society). Since we stopped forcing people to do this, they're naturally excercising their will.

But your wealth depends on them reproducing, so that's a nice middle finger they gave you by not doing so. You're concerned? You should be, that's the message.


The first time it happened it was physics. The next several billion years it was the purpose.

No, that's not correct. Otherwise grey tin would also have the same purpose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin_pest

This is an allotrope (alternative crystal form) of tin metal that forms spontaneously at very low temperatures and can convert ordinary tin that it touches into the same form at room temperature. (It's not irreversible, as it melts into regular molten tin.). In other words, it's a metal that reproduces. At first due to physics, but after the first time it's purpose, wouldn't you say?


I'm so happy people are rejecting your masochism (assuming your comment is not sarcastic) and are not falling for this scam of suffering anymore.

> We need more bold people, people who aren't afraid to suffer because they see the light at the end of the road.

At "the end of the road" there's only death, so it's pointless to suffer just so you can make more people which will also suffer.


> At "the end of the road" there's only death, so it's pointless to suffer just so you can make more people which will also suffer.

But sitting 8 hours a day in front of a rectangle emitting light and prompting llms to generate code for your overlords for the next 45 years definitely is not pointless


Do they specify a particular model? Is that model public?

The page immediately reminded me of that "What is a Dickover" post :)

So it's not an open model while not being much better? Meh.
