You're being entirely unreasonable. 640 kilobytes of memory was enough for Bill Gates, and yet somehow your special project needs more?

Yeah, and by the time that happens, we will have seen Mythos 2.0 released

We'll see Mythos 2.0 patching all the Mythos 1.0 vulnerabilities before we see an open-source Mythos 1.0. What matters isn't the power of the tool, but whether defenders have had time to secure against. Today's cyberweapon is

I mean, the easiest starting step would be: Identity Verification via the methods Discord switched to after realizing Persona was horrible. Much more ideally, some sort of government-ran zero-proof service where Anthropic can confirm solely

"It only took two years for my friend to appeal a Ban" If you're willing to wait a couple years, I dare say a few services might have changed their minds by then, so it's too early to judge.

They already reversed course on that decision a couple of days later. Trivial to find a source, but Fable is also rather notably not available to the public right now, so it's not actually a relevant threat.

An empty account and an account with a year of history have very different weights in this - most people already have an account tied to their legal name, paid for with a credit card in that same legal name. Throw in some geo-location, brow

Sure, I agree with you - now provide any evidence at all for such retaliation? Very critically, they weren't fired, which would be the typical retaliation. "Having a conversation with HR" does not qualify as retaliation. &quo

Sorry, how is "blocking Firefox" not forcing people to choose Chrome? I suppose you can argue the admin is doing it and Google is merely facilitating it, but the article title is "block Firefox access"

I would actually be pretty concerned if Taco Bell bought Ford and would only allow Ford cars to use their drive-through or parking lot. Imagine a world where 95% of grocery stores insist on you driving a Ford car.

Sorry, three employees had a talk with HR? That's it? That's the whole story? No one was fired? No laws were broken? I'm not one to give HR the benefit of the doubt, but it is actually quite reasonable for them to find out ab

"Appendix: How?" is a neat walkthrough of discovering this by trying to find a specific seed, and learning that the correlated randomness made the outcome he was searching for vanishingly rare.

No, I'm saying they have an actual track record that you can evaluate, and if you do so you will see that they have killed approximately zero people, etc. etc. Or even just propose an alternative: who has a better track record, here? W

Excuse my ignorance on the subject, but what does this solve that VPNs didn't already address?

The problem is when people use "we really believe it" as an excuse to do harm, which has not actually occurred here. Anthropic is not committing violence, they're not defrauding the population. They're sticking to both m

The problem is... what's the alternative? It's questionable whether the current government can even unite the talent required for this project. Seizing it might just push all the talent to Europe or China. The idea of open-sourcin

Fable was already out for three days. They could have made the call before it was released. They could have given Anthropic the weekend to fix the bug. They could have publicly announced what the issue is once Fable was offline (and they re

Of course I expect the government to act better than this! But I am not so naive as to assume my expectations will be met.

Oh cool, we're back to "she was asking for it, wearing a short skirt like that". There's a difference between regulation and the government randomly waving it's dick. The government was aware of Mythos capabilities

"pumping the brakes" would be fine. This is slamming to a full stop on a crowded freeway and causing a three car pile-up. Warning and advanced notice are the difference between regulation and tyranny, and in this case we're j

Oh, cool, then surely you can point me towards the posts where they're celebrating this, or even actively advocating "please ban our product on a Friday with no notice or due process"?

How does this thread suggest export controls are warranted just for this one specific model? Pliny has jail-broken every released model in this fashion.
