Oh come on now, you know you are arguing in bad faith. Explain how the BTC in anyway synergized and drove value for anything GME did. MSTR has a BTC leverage angle that GME has never had so it's not even an apt comparison.

Maybe pick a more restrictive modding engine or cut out obvious fetish and meme material from evaluation? Even gems of games ala Factorio 1.0 aren't really as good as their peak mods ala Space Exploration. If you limited to larger scale overhaul style mods I think your economic argument starts collapsing quickly

Why do you think it can't sexually harass someone or drive people to suicide. There are already lawsuits coming in on it causing suicides.

This is an architecture that people are increasing begging to give network connectivity that can't differentiate its system prompt from user input


As the NRA puts it, guns don't kill people, people kill people. Yes, a harasser now has access to more powerful tools to sexual harass somebody, but Claude, the AI, isn't going to randomly grab the secretary's ass and have to be fired for having done so at the holiday Christmas party.


I thought it already was used to sexually harass people by creating naked versions of them.


We need only ask the dead. Aaron Schwartz knew what Altman is. The answer to the topic is no.


I'm interested in knowing more about this topic, do you have any resources about the relationship between Swhartz and Altman?


It’s not difficult to find these, Aaron always said that Sam was not to be trusted.


Apparently Aaron Swartz and Sam Altman were classmates at the original 2005 Y Combinator class. This article has a picture of them literally standing next to each other: https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/throwback-photo-of-f...

The OP says this:

> The board member was not the only person who, unprompted, used the word “sociopathic.” One of Altman’s batch mates in the first Y Combinator cohort was Aaron Swartz, a brilliant but troubled coder who died by suicide in 2013 and is now remembered in many tech circles as something of a sage. Not long before his death, Swartz expressed concerns about Altman to several friends. “You need to understand that Sam can never be trusted,” he told one. “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.”

The cited snippet is in TFA. Did you read it? Did you read the Hindustan Times article either?

Because that one doesn't actually include any relvant statement, it just contains the picture GP was pointing out - and the entire point of referencing that picture was to emphasize that they had had contact, which is already implied by them being in the same YC batch, which I don't think you are challenging.

Please don't post comments like this one. "90% of Indian outlets are basically unfactual" is a hyperbolic claim - regardless of the truth content of "Indian outlets" that claim is bogus unless you have factual evidence to back up the specific number which I doubt because "basically unfactual" is not well-defined). But even worse, it's completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand because the factual accuracy of the Hindustan Times is at best tangential because nothing in GP's comment hinged on its accuracy unless you're saying the description of that photo as being one depicting both of them as members of the same YC cohort is "unfactual" or you're accusing them of having manipulated the image itself. But even then it would be irrelevant because you seem to take issue with the description of Altman as a sociopath (i.e. the quote), not the fact they were batch mates, and this quote is explicitly cited as being from TFA this comment thread is about, not the Hindustan Times piece. Comments like that just waste time, cause unrelated hostile arguments and could have been avoided by simply reading either of the articles involved.


I found a great piece from the halal times that backs up my claim

https://www.halaltimes.com/indian-media-has-become-a-factory...

It's fully up to you if you want to generalise before you read based on the publications name. I won't judge. If we read the times of india in full every time to give it the benefit of the doubt and counter our biases, the world would be a far less productive place. If a country's media has a reputation for low fact checking it's usually deserved.


It's mentioned in the submitted article (about half way through), you should read it.


did I read, sam said along with others , he would do AI for mankind, for free? but then collected royalties , Elon had a fallout over it I recall


Okay but Claude is a fucking moron.


Why not just research it outside of the US if the problem is the FDA cost


You still need the same FDA approval and process to sell it in the US


Cost cut them. You think the administration won't take a bribe at that point?


Because the problem isn't the FDA cost

The problem is proving your drugs work

It's very hard and expensive to do


The deep scan detected all phishing sites correctly with the unfortunate tagging of legit sites as phishing too. I imagine their code looks something like isPhishing = true.


lol


Isn't half the appeal of AI that they can write a prompt like move all my text history from OpenAI to Claude and then they do it?


But the (royal) Wife needs to 1) know that exporting is a concept, 2) automating an export is possible, 3) you could ask claude to do it, 4) what an API key is or how to connect services.

My mum, and probably nearly a billion other users, could probably imagine step 1 but not connect to step 2 beyond copy-paste. Most people are still out here sending screen shots of their phones instead of just copying a link or hitting "share" on the image.


Especially since it's a public ledger. Anyone with a program watching the chain is going to see it. From there they can exercise whatever trade they want for their gain.


Ah yes because trade secrets were never a thing at any of these companies. The companies always shut down when it's founding members died wiping out all the knowledge it had built up.

That is to say organizations have always had this edge on individuals.
