Lol they are completely shook by Elon's lawsuit


They've completely upended the original non-profit focused board and literally installed the former CEO of the Bill Gates Foundation.

MSFT is going all in, dropping all pretense of OpenAI ever being viewed as a non-profit.

It's insane how many people are seemingly forgetting Elon's lawsuit.


Exactly. MSFT is who won here. I highly recommend you all watch OpenAI section of the new ALL-IN Podcast. Sam and OpenAI is in a very bad situation if Elon gets heard by a fair judge.


What, the podcast that is all of Elon’s best friends thinks he has a case? What a surprise!


I don't see the problem here. Are you not able to discern different arguments/ideas and come to conclusions by yourself?


I watched some on a recommendation and used to see some of their ideas on X-Twitter.

One conclusion I came to was that I didn't respect those people's ability to discern or conclude.


Who cares whether you respect their ability to discern or conclude?

Did you get the argument or not, and did it make sense to you in the situation? That's all that matters.


Only a lawyer can really do that in legal cases.

You know how Hollywood gets computers, coding, and hacking wrong? That's how bad non-lawyers are with law.

Or, pertinently to this case — who knows more law: one of us, or ChatGPT?


One of us IANAL folks have one thing ChatGPT doesn't: we don't make up stuff up.


One of the more amusing dismissals of ChatGPT that I've heard is "mansplaining as a service".

We absolutely do make stuff up, we just don't realise we're doing it.


True, absolutely true. At least I hope most lawyers don't make up stuff in court filings, unless they use ChatGPT...


A 'fair judge'? You mean one that applies the law? Most of the experts I've seen say the case has no chance. Or are you saying this is another 4d chess move like what happened with Twitter?


They train the model, then as soon as they get their numbers, they let the safety people RLHF it to death.


I think it's just really hard to assess the performance of LLMs.

Also AI safety is the stated reason for Anthropic's existence, we can't be angry at them for making it a priority.


I refuse to use any social media like Tiktok, Insta, FB as I know how bad it is for my brain. The younger generation doesn't seem to get this yet. I'll stick to my highly curated X whereby I know I will learn something new when I open it.


Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube are all fine but I've never felt any desire to explore them. For me, TikTok has been genuinely delightful and interesting to scroll through. I don't think the TikTok algorithm can quite keep up with my diverse interests (absurdist humor, dance, memes, antique machinery, home improvement, wind turbine and power transmission, cats, etc.), but it has still done a great job of showing me interesting, educational, and emotional (e.g. https://www.tiktok.com/@pinupandpigeons/video/71582333179874...) things. It definitely displays too many "Live" and "Shop" videos in my feed for my liking, but it also has the most prominent anti-influencer and anti-consumer content I've seen on social networks. TikTok has really changed my thinking about the youngest generation. Before I probably saw the youngest generation as spoiled brats who are ruining everything. Now I see there there plenty of interesting, creative, dedicated, and hard working young people who are probably the best hope for saving things from the spoiled geriatric ruling class that is too immature and selfish to not hoard and consume everything they can, future generations be damned.


I have found X/Twitter to be way more insular and less educational than TikTok, personally. TikTok has a lot of dumb trendy stuff, but also some really interesting niche channels.


I don't even use TikTok and I know this is a ridiculously naive take.

TikTok is where all of the content is. Its algorithm is designed to optimize for exactly what you want to see. That's why they're the biggest.

If you're into 3D zbrush art, that's what you're getting. If you like hardware hacking, HDR birdwatching, stem cell culturing, and Blender node exploring, guess what? You're getting that content.

Do you want to learn everything there is to know about kettlebells? You're in luck.

All of the creators, many of the best, are on there putting great stuff out all day.

You're sleeping at the wheel if you think everyone is equally logging in and just doomscrolling through dance videos.


the service inherently isn't bad, it's the lack of moderation that's bad, and that responsibility falls to the parents to moderate.

If you can't moderate yourself then it's good you're not on those platforms, I have them and only use them when I poop.


I can't tell if this is sarcasm


When I was younger I joined "AGI" lab once, only to find out that I joined a GOFAI lab. That was rough. The CEO didn't believe in statistical learning because your system can only be as good as your data, and believed it wasn't actually "thinking" when you would interact with a DL system


"Thinking" is one of the most annoying words in AI.

It has no clear, stable definition, and I think that that might actually be its entire point. If we ever settled on a concrete, operationalizable definition, that would bring a quick end to the arguments about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
