A MacBook Neo is 699 GBP. An 8GB Raspberry Pi w/ 32GB SD card, cable, housing, fan and power supply from Kiwi Electronics is 188 EUR (160 GBP). A monitor, kb/mouse, and SD card from Newegg is 70 USD (45 GBP). Total 205 GBP, which

Pis aren't supposed to be for ultra-advanced users, they're even specifically marketed for kids. They're not gonna know if they got a bootlegged version or not.

No, RPis are very inexpensive computers. What you're advocating would considerably increase the price of a Raspberry Pi to pay for the additional support burden (if this is even reasonable--should they hire a bunch of people just to an

Being able to put a PC together doesn't mean you understand computers. If I ask you to make me a computer that runs a wristwatch, you'll likely be lost unless you have very specialized understanding. I think we actually all know w

Swartz was charged under the CFAA, like most hacking cases, and it clearly applies to the Anthropic and OpenAI cases.

Of course not. Even the developers of AI admit there's a huge risk though, no? Even they are calling for a slowdown. Do you think you know more than they do?

I don't know, but it's also what Kevin Rudd thinks [0]. He was Australia's prime minister (twice, lol), Australia's foreign minister, a foreign service officer working in China, and the author of a dissertation on Xi Ji

Finally, we agree. Even Dario Amodei thinks we should halt work on intelligence until we can do it safely.

Countries use nuclear power too. The reason they don't launch nukes at the drop of a hat is MAD. I don't see how this isn't analogous to what we could do with AI.

I don't think working on LLMs is the same as working on superintelligence (personally I don't think superintelligence is on the table, but whatever)

The point is an arms race is bad for everyone. "I don't know what WW3 will be fought with, but I do know WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones" type of stuff.

No I think it's fine for 9 countries to have existing models and to coordinate development with each other, which is the general outline of all NPTs.

The bill doesn't ban it. It pauses it until a regulatory body and processes are established. That seems pretty reasonable.

After over 80 years since the US used nuclear weapons against Japan, less than 5% of the world's countries have nuclear weapons, and no one's used one on another country since. If you don't think that's an incredible ach

Two things I would say. One: nuclear non-proliferation has been pretty successful; we can use a similar model for AI. Two, China's major motivation for developing competitive AI isn't to reap the benefits from an an important new

I won't defend the Trump admin, but I will quibble on Anthropic's efforts to be a good actor. It's easy to ask for regulation when you know it won't come (or you'll easily bear the token fines). It's easy to th
