| Anthropic spent months going on about how incredibly powerful and dangerous their models are and how access to them needs to be restricted. Now they are getting what they seemingly wanted. |

| ▲ | estearum 6 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Clearly they've assessed that the models they released are safe enough to release. Without a clear regulatory framework and Constitutional basis to overrule them, that is Anthropic's decision to make, and not the US government's. It's disheartening how many people think the use of government power is justified or not based on the WWE smackdown drama they concoct in their own brain instead of, you know, the laws of our nation. It is very dangerous for the government to be able to shut off services, regardless of whether their owners wrote some blog posts that rubbed you the wrong way. | | |

Last I checked I can’t buy a tactical nuke at Walmart. Clearly the government and all states have some power to control private enterprise for the betterment of their citizenry. For the record I don’t support this ban, but you cry wolf as a marketing tactic and this is what you get… |

| Was Bill Clinton fascist when 128-bit SSL was on export controls? Can’t government be simply bad or dumb anymore without having to slap the “F” word on it? We’re gonna apply it to so many things it’ll have lost its meaning soon. |

| ▲ | SamLL 5 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Hello. I live in St. Paul, Minnesota. In January of this year my city was under hostile armed occupation. I volunteered for weeks packing boxes of food for people who were afraid to leave their houses because the masked secret police were ripping people off the streets with little regard for legality. Two of my neighbors were murdered by the secret police; a hundred of us sang hymns outside the local elementary school in 20 below weather. One of those murdered was my friend's coworker. The secret police agency has so far successfully opposed any attempt to bring the murderers to justice, and indeed was trying to bring legal charges against the families of the murder victims. Which 'F' word do you think is appropriate to describe all this? Or has meaning already been lost? | | |

| ▲ | nearlyepic 5 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Lawful doesn’t mean right. Slavery was lawful. | | |
| ▲ | charcircuit 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Laws are not immutable. Slavery is an example of something that was lawful and then society added rules against it. | | |
| ▲ | int_19h 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | In US, the society didn't just "add rules against it". If you recall, the slavers first had to be beaten with a very big stick. | |
| ▲ | nearlyepic 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | and your point is? |

| ▲ | yoyohello13 4 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | I guess anything is ok… as long as it’s ‘lawful’. No government would ever make an unjust law. |

| ▲ | estearum 6 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Imagine thinking a person's political philosophy could be determined or disproven by a singular datapoint lmao Everyone who has touched currency is a capitalist, everyone who has paid taxes is a commie, everyone who has regulated a technology is a fascist Or perhaps... one must look at the full fact pattern of a person's behavior to approximate (and always imperfectly!) their political philosophy. Hilarious |
