Sure, but we're not talking about those other ones. Dismissing good faith initiatives as marketing ploys because there are bad faith initiatives is functionally no different than just shrugging and walking away.
Of course OpenAI et. al. will try to influence the good faith discussions: that's a great reason to champion the ones with a bunch of good faith actors who stand a chance of holding the industry and policy makers to task. Waiting around for some group of experts that has enough clout to do something, but by policy excludes the industry itself and starry-eyed shithead "journalists" trying to ride the wave of the next big thing will yield nothing. This is a great example of perfect being the enemy of good.
- fmap 3y agoI agree completely. I was just speculating on why there is so much discussion about marketing ploys in this comment section.
- chefandy 3y agoAh, sure. That makes sense. There's definitely a lot of marketing bullshit out there in the form of legit discussion. Unfortunately, this technology likely means there will be an incalculable increase in the amount of bullshit out there. Blerg.
