Is it really a matter of "national security" when the technology at hand is being used in a way that unilaterally benefits a small class of oligarchs at the expense of the rest of society? That's not really in the benefit of the nation anymore, is it?
- AnimalMuppet 4mo agoDepends on what you think "the nation" is. Is it the "regular people"? Or is it the elite? (And whichever you think it is, and no matter how obvious you think it is, there are people who think it is obviously the opposite.)
- svachalek 4mo agoThere's practically nothing you can get 100% agreement on, and yet we can still find that there is a right answer.
- WarmWash 4mo agoThe technology at hand is essentially a genius in your pocket being given away for $20/mo. I mean yeah, $20 is greater than free, but let's have a least a mild level of honesty here
- Gud 4mo agoIt’s being “given away” by the dominating actors to suppress competition, let’s not pretend we’re getting a great deal here just because for a brief period we’re getting a small discount on LLMs. How about them DRAM prices?
