  • Coming soon: McDonalds get sued for selling burgers to a minor that ate 3 burgers every day and died! McDonalds must set thresholds per customer and collect IDs from minors!

    I would be for holding companies responsible when they fuck up, like McDonalds clearly marketing burgers to minors and saying it’s healthy, but we must not hold them more accountable than they really are

    The only privacy is local. And actually, given Microsoft, local and Linux-based.

    Soon: huggingface gets sued because hosted models are being used for getting drug recipes, or did not actively prevent people from killing themselves through it

    By the way, I was recently testing https://nano-gpt.com/ which claims to have privacy through TEE models… but I don’t see how it’s private in any way? It just guarantees that the output went through some TEE, but it doesn’t guarantee that the input and output didn’t leak elsewhere or got logged


  • They definitely prefer to spend their money on development, rather than adding safeguards

    I don’t believe people misusing ChatGPT helps them in any way, it’s just that adding protections has a cost

    but they aren’t able to tell when a child is at risk and report it as well?

    Maybe police actually sorts and filters manually reports, but doesn’t want to bother with mental health things? You know how the USA works, I don’t believe OpenAI will go too far, they’ll just randomly report.

    Might even be reported for all I know, sometimes I just like to see the reaction of LLMs when I say I’ll commit horrible stuff like school shootings or terrorism. The NSA will just feed it into their mass spying algorithm to check the most important profiles and this will be it

    The war on drugs is so much more important than mental health detection, y’know. It sells more.




  • Uses a tool the bad way despite it being public knowledge that it’s bad for mental health

    Was predisposed to mental health problems

    Died, partly because they talked to a chatbot

    “It’s the chatbot’s, creator fault”, despite the chatbot never being made to cause those problems, and efforts being made to fix those problems

    Yea nah, it’s just anti-ai people doing their thing again and not being objective.

    Get a better fight, such as hating on pharmaceutical laboratories companies pushing the use of extremely addictive substances for profit, despite them knowing the immense risk they cause to consumers, and financing false ads to make it safe.

    If Sam Altman belongs in prison, it would either be:

    • Because he’s destroying the planet (ecologically)
    • Because he stole lots of content to train his models









  • Believing all the cryptocurrency ecosystem is a scam is just a big indicator that you know nothing about it

    The main thing is to have a trustless currency that is decentralized (can’t be easily censored), and that isn’t owned nor controlled by some centralized organization (ex: a country). Its uses are best seen in countries where the government goes bankrupt or fucked up the currency by printing a lot of it, or for currencies that no other country trust

    It will be niche and useless to most people, but it’s a verifiable way to check money is not being tampered with. It’s also the best way to transact online anonymously or pseudonymously, and not relying on a company that’s trying to make as much money as possible

    Due to the way some cryptos are, they became a speculative investment. The fact that they’re not well known increases this use. Some cryptocurrencies are designed to be inflationary. Some are straight up pump and dump scams, like a lot of things. There will be assholes everywhere
