A false equivalence. A more correct example is: Anthropic was speeding, got caught by the county sheriff, and paid the fine. Anthropic stopped speeding. Meanwhile, Chinese labs are speeding in a different county. Everyone knows they are spe

China is infamous for weakly enforcing copyright law. Even when it is completely obvious that Chinese labs are training models on pirated data, US copyright holders face a virtually impossible task of proving it in court. Those lawsuits won

But they still paid. I don't see any Chinese labs paying billion dollar infringement settlements. Chinese labs can freely train on pirated material, which is a structural advantage.

Partially correct. The court explicitly ruled that training on pirated data, which is what Anthropic was doing, is not considered fair use. Training on legally acquired / licensed data is potentially fair use.

That is incorrect. Anthropic paid $1.5 billion in compensation to copyright holders for use of their content in training data. OpenAI pays hundreds of millions per year across 150+ licensing deals for access to copyrighted data. Meta and Al

I presume Ada Logics has access to Anthropic's Mythos model via Project Glasswing, and Ada Logics discovered this exploit during their vulnerability research.

> You don't get more or fewer hours of sun Technically correct but false in practice. DST shifts sunlight hours to when people tend to be awake, giving the average person more hours of sun per day. Sun received while asleep is not

That doesn't fix anything, the reason DST exists is because at higher latitudes, the sun rises too early in the summer, and too late in the winter. DST exists to make the time of sunrise more consistent across seasons. DST only functio

Appealing to population is a stupid argument. DST as a policy is designed for places at higher latitudes, and the the majority of the planet do not live at higher latitudes. DST exists to maintain a more consistent time of sunrise across se

Are you seriously suggesting I wake naturally at sunrise (4 AM), then start work 5 hours(!) later? I can't change my work start time. That's an unproductive use of my time.
199.
by tristanj 4mo ago
That means waking up for work 2-3 hours before sunrise, and starting work before dawn. I'd very gladly have a more natural sleep schedule than some sun in the afternoon.

Abolishing DST for permanent summer hours don't address the winter sunrise issue. Under permanent DST, the sun rises around 9 AM in December in Seattle. That's far too late. I, and millions of other people, do not want to wake up

Elaborate. The intent of DST is to normalize variations in the time of sunrise between summer and winter. Places closer to the equator have minimal variation in the time of sunrise between seasons. They don't need DST. Higher latitudes

> In Sweden, with DST, the sunrise is at 4am in summer and 8am in winter. In Sweden, in summer without DST, sunrise in Stockholm would happen ~2:30 AM. In the current system, with DST, sunrise happens around 3:30 AM, an improvement. In

The majority of the planet do not live at higher latitudes, where implementing adjusted summer/winter hours actually makes sense.

My work starts at 9am, therefore I wake up around 7am. My work start time does not adjust based on the seasons. Any sun before 7am is wasted for me. Under DST, at summer solstice, the sun rises around 5am, giving me 2 hours of wasted sunlig

This is patently false, don't spread rumors. Voluntarily delaying release at the request of the government is not the same as imposing export controls.

I learned about this from a friend who lives in China. I'm surprised these token resale services aren't talked about more often, they are common knowledge in China, and the discount to API pricing (90%) is genuinely cheap.

Chinese models are the exact opposite of what you claim to want, they are all highly censored, even more so than Anthropic models, with government mandated censorship.
