I am not necessarily anti-AI. I am more anti-Sam Altman, against using LLMs to usurp power, and against using AI as a scapegoat to abdicate responsibility for decisions that are made. AI itself encompasses so much more than LLMs.

Early days LLMs were declared an auditable. This was such a ridiculous idea that technology was so complicated and able to give good results without understanding why.

That was not from any foreign actors but the companies themselves. I’m sure that is no longer the case. My technology life is rich enough that I don’t have to pay attention to LLMs.

What do you mean by 'declared an auditable' here?

They probably meant unauditable and got auto-corrected.

Sam at least can be understood. He's in it to make money and nothing else. The most dangerous men are people like Dario, who sit on top of their elitist towers and think they are right and will burn down the world in the name of righteousness.

Anthropic unironically uses the word "uplift" in their documentation. They think we are lesser beings.

1. Does every other company that says their products will uplift people "think we are lesser beings"?

2. Which documentation are you referring to? Googing "site:anthropic.com uplift" most of the top hits seem to be about bio research, another is about measuring agent performance (not a comparison to people), or "These are Anthropic’s internal designators for actors observed to be abusing AI. The report also attempts to measure uplift, a term we use to describe the AI capability boost, or how much more harm was caused with AI versus without AI."

To add some context, uplift in the context of futurism literally refers to a species fast-tracking another’s progress.

That is a ridiculously reaching statement.

Luckily we can declare that they're both bad and neither should be our overlord.

> will burn down the world in the name of righteousness

Is this referring to the 'safe development of AI', as they say AI development will happen even if they don’t exist, but other companies are less focused on AI safety?

Their idea of safety and alignement is sane person dyatopia and harm.

Meanwhile, they dont care about acrual harm to real people. They sell to Palantier for christ sake.
