To be very clear on this point - this is not related to model training. It’s important in the fair use assessment to understand that the training itself is fair use, but the pirating of the books is the issue at hand here, and is what Ant

AI is a change management problem. Using it well requires a competent team, working together with trust and transparency, to build processes that are designed to effectively balance human guidance/expertise with what LLM's are goo

I am not anti-AI - perhaps obviously. But this is wildly insufficient as a standard, and wholly lacks innovation on the dimension of 'context management' as a discipline.

You think I delegated the opinion or the seriousness of this situation to the chatbot? This is not just a run-of-the-mill news story. It's a fight for the rights enshrined in our constitution. (And yes - I framed that the way a chatbot

I see. Perhaps we have a different definition of “appropriate.”

We ought to refuse to address the content of the message if there is even a single em-dash — things written with AI can’t be true, aren’t worth considering, and lack substance or merit.

Your proposal is that the military response is primarily to combat homeless encampments in DC, that this is appropriate, and that this won’t happen elsewhere because this problem is unique to DC? I’m not a democrat. Help me steel-man your p

DC often serves as America's protest stage. Controlling its police means controlling what kinds of dissent are permissible at the symbolic heart of democracy. Controlling the physical space around Congress, the Supreme Court, the feder

The author misses the deeper game: if you genuinely believe AGI is imminent, then current economic metrics become meaningless. Why optimize for revenue when the entire concept of scarcity-based economics dissolves? The $560B for those who b

My point on the initial discussion remains, but I think that it also seems like we disagree on the foundations/premise of the technology. The actions of a few companies does not invalidate the entire category. There are open models, tr

I read Careless People recently. I don't think the author of that book is unbiased, and after some healthy debate with friends, imagine there are a number of different perspectives on the facts. But it seems clear that, well before it

I'd be surprised if one needed to refer to my username to make a determination on me viewing the technology more optimistically, although I do chafe a tad at the notion that I don't come here for all types of content.

There's a clear difference between "I have used these tools, tested their limits, and have opinions" and "I am consuming media narratives about why AI is bad" AI presently has a far lower footprint on the globe than

Two masters go head to head. One uses AI tools (wisely - after all, they're a master!), the other refuses to. Which one wins? To your second point -- With as much capital as is going into data center buildout, the increasing availabili

The bait-and-switch critique is valid, but the real pragmatic issue is that AI companies are discovering their unit economics don't support flat-rate pricing for compute-intensive services. Try running AWS on a Netflix subscription mod

I will engage in good faith. I do not believe it's theft. I think that 'stealing' is a loaded term that is often used by propagandists who want to drive outrage and anti-AI sentiment (and is readily consumed, as all other pro

Excessive anything is counterproductive, by definition of being “excessive.” Debate where the line is, if you think it’s worthwhile, but imagine it’s much further than “all AI bad, always.”

Their frustration with plagiarism, inaccuracy, and the "tragedy of the commons" effect on web content is valid, but that is human behavior - they even cite an example. But "wisdom", if we are going to aspire to that, w

Business leaders operate in overlapping networks. Conferences, advisory boards, private equity connections, etc. When McKinsey or Bain gives similar advice to 50 companies, you get synchronized behavior that looks coordinated. Labor categor
