I haven't cried in years and no outbursts... What makes you cry so often?

I watched a few documentaries about the North Sentinelese and uncontacted Amazonian tribes, and it's terrifying how violent they are compared to modern standards. They kill and ask questions later.

FWIW, X is far less of an echo chamber than Bluesky, Truth Social or Reddit. They're simply doing this to boost engagement and break scrapers.

Those examples aren't really comparable in scale, especially regarding risk to consumer trust. How many users did they actually lose from wrongful death lawsuits? I guess very few. Shipping an intentionally fake privacy toggle is funda

Interesting. You've made several comments stating that models reason, yet here you argue they lack intelligence.

A bit of an aside: do you still stand by your 2022 comment that LLMs are fundamentally just a fancy search engine, or has your view changed since then? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32042689

Prediction: in a few years, we will laugh at this hysteria and call it a moral panic.

Not that this predates the Hugging Face hack by two months. So it's likely that OpenAI didn't know about it.

Of course they want the government to mandate a pause. Cutthroat competition is exhausting, and a legally enforced cartel lets everyone lock in their current market share without the pesky inconvenience of competing.

From OpenAI's point of view, the risks are not comparable at all: 1) Extreme edge case affecting a handful of users, vs millions of users using the data sharing opt out. 2) The deaths are unintentional. 3) They probably won't lose

By "loss of trust", I meant that this is something they would risk losing a lot of users over, which isn't the case with the other lawsuits. There is a massive distinction between fighting third parties in a legal grey area a

These examples aren't really similar. None of those situations involve harming and lying to their own customers.

Yes that's what I was referring to. I'm a non paid user but I did briefly pay for a consumer subscription before. Not sure what region I'm assigned to as I'm in China and always access through a VPN.

Weird, I'm the opposite. I don't recall ever setting mine and I just checked and it was set to "disallow training".

Example?

by olalonde 16d ago
Unethical doesn't mean irrational. They'd be risking massive lawsuits and a total loss of trust if they got caught lying about this. Doesn't seem worth it.
