I literally came in here to say I'll probably stop using it given all the people at Google who Flutter depends on. I suspect a few high level departures more and it'd be dead. Do you mean he's going to continue working on it

Honestly "Safety" is the word in the AI talk that nobody can quantify or qualify in any way when it comes to these conversations. I've stopped caring about anyone who uses the word "safety". It's vague and a ha

This "benefit of all humanity" is a nebulous turn of phrase. Notice anyone talking that phrase or "AI safety" have no ability to qualify or quantify it? It's become such an eye roll at this point.

Yes, and I'm ashamed to say I'm unabashedly following it like the people I cringe at follow their fave celebs. It's an interesting saga though and as a payer of ChatGPT+ I feel staked in it.

This seems to be a problem though for migrants who go to a country from a "worse" place. "The standard for bad here isn't bad" because it was worse elsewhere. Where I live in the US we have this too where migrants w

Unfortunately everywhere in the Western world there seems to be denialism about this. And I'm actually legitimately afraid to actually voice that opinion in-person. I can vent here anonymously. But in the circles I'm in in San Fra

The major investors whose money is on the line and who are funding the venture, Microsoft, Sequoia, and Khosla, were not given advanced warning or any input in to how this would impact their investment. I would definitely say the board scre

I'm not so sure. Ilya was apparently instrumental in this, and he didn't have to pursue this? It didn't have to be a "you're with me or you're with them!"

How do you define "safety"? It's becoming a bit of a weasel word in these discussions. I keep hearing it thrown around with nobody specifying how rolling out ChatGPT to more people makes the world "less safe". It&#x

Okay, this is honestly annoying. What is this thing with the word "safety" becoming some weasel word when it comes to AI discussions? What exactly do YOU mean by safety? That they go at the pace YOU decide? Does it mean they make

I'm the opposite. I feel like it is true. I very much will NO LONGER THINK about "simple" problems. My most recent thing is for a game I'm working on. I got a bunch of free sound FX from freesound.org, but they were AIFF

When judges do their job, you the accused have due process and legal representation. I specified my issue (aspergers) for a reason. I would need legal and competent representation if I were accused of something. We know from people that hav
