It's pretty easy if you whitelist at the harness. Anything else is irresponsible.

If we're going to have an AI safety law, it should include making it clear that people who don't whitelist and the AI gets out should be held accountable for the software's actions. Such a law might be mostly meaningless but at least that is important.

The AI can't access anything on its own so it should be pretty easy to institute a whitelist.

That is not how anything works. That is not what that word means. Until you figure this out you're going to spend a lot of time talking nonsense.

It's not legal to make it illegal to get AI services or products from China. We have a legal system for preventing exports for security reasons, but not for preventing the imports. It would take a lot more than writing some laws to make that happen. They can't credibly both claim their models are the best and we have to ban Chinese models for safety, that might fly with maggot cultists but it won't work for business leaders in the same way that ordinary Faux News tells lies from dusk 'til dawn, but Fox Business News gives accurate information because otherwise businesspeople won't watch it.

Things are worse in the USA than in most of Europe AFAICT, because we have such very low standards for drivers, which in turn is due to allowing a conspiracy of automakers, oil companies, and related industries to destroy working and often profitable mass transportation systems in order to produce revenues. We literally went backwards in public transport in this country on behalf of that conspiracy, the members of which were actually convicted in court. They then fined them $5 a piece and allowed them to continue.

So here, driving is essentially a right, insofar as our nation even believes such things exist. Specifically, it's a right enjoyed by the general public until it's more profitable to deny an individual that right.

It might seem that way if you don't know what capitalism is.

You are so close.

All you have to understand is that capitalism means one thing, which is that capital controls the means of production.

Massive consolidation is an obvious consequence of capitalism, and abuse of consumers is an obvious consequence of that consolidation. That's why antitrust law exists, but it is not capitalistic. Antitrust law is the opposite of capitalism. And that's why it's not being enforced meaningfully any more — because capital controls that, too.

It seems to work like this: Anarchy leads to feudalism leads to any of a number of inefficient systems lead to capitalism leads to failure as the capital eventually takes control and breaks everything. The only question is where you go from there. Will it collapse all the way back to feudalism, or even anarchy? The former is much more likely than the latter. A number of authors predicted techno-feudalism, including Neal Stephenson and Margaret Atwood.

I don't agree. It doesn't have to be intelligent to be dangerous. Nobody has made a self-replicating AI attacker yet because it's hard to hide, because it's big. But as more AI crap gets deployed it will be easier to hide more AIs among them.

It hasn't though. Numerous sources have reported that he's still influential at Mickeysoft.

That is a literally insane response to what I wrote.

The opposite of isolationism is not deliberately fucking the world up for profit

Statistically nobody thinks that self regulation is sufficient to stop abuse. Those who say they do are lying because they want to be the abusers.

It has not been established that there is no copyright which applies, only that YOU cannot copyright the output you requested from the LLM. Those two things are NOT the same.

In fact, popular use does make it correct. That's how language works. The words mean what they are used to mean.

Religious ethnostates are always bad. Which is why we shouldn't have founded one and shouldn't be funding it.

It's also why we shouldn't have done a coup in Iran for oil money, because they were well on their way out of being one.

It's also why we shouldn't have assassinated their relatively calm and sane leader.

Unless of course the chaos was the point... Hmm

"death cults don't care if they die, as long as they achieve their goals."

You mean like the American evangelicals who want the rapture to take them home to magic sky daddy, who make sure we fund the nuclear armed religious ethnostate of Israel which our country founded through the United Nations?

Not that this means we won't do it, but that would be a very stupid way to go. Platooning cars can never be safe because of pneumatic tires. The right way to do it is called trains, or some other kind of vehicles on some other kind of rails.

"So how do you feel about the economic structure of the USA. Because it is in no way, shape or form capitalism."

Your argument is that capital is not controlling the means of production in the USA? Don't skip your meds bro
