I mean even defining what is the “common good” is political and that is the point of the exercise. If art exists that is deemed bad for society then we tend to ban it. For example, there are people who define CSAM as art, but the cost to society is so great we don’t allow even the possession of such material.


Back in 1975 we didn’t like who they elected and did a soft coup on our ally: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alleged_CIA_involvement_in_the_Whitlam_dismissal


Or dress up Patel as a racoon and send RFK in.


I wouldn’t mind being a garbage truck driver, but I do mind being forced to pee in a bottle to make a quota


Wanted to expand on what others have said about the randomness of LLMs being unsafe, because that response angers those who think “alignment” is the solution. Alignment is additional training to constrain the randomness to not do bad things like crime. But even the staff that works on aligning this software have their doubts about whether this process will make the software safe (this article), and even their own researchers are coming out and saying “oops, it did a crime” but in a way where it hypes the ability of the software (see other articles about it hacking). Then there is the recent news of OpenAi’s recent model that drops chain of thought observability (a feature the let’s you read what the model is “thinking”) - a very useful tool in reviewing whether the model is engaging in unsafe activities. They sacrificed observability for benchmark performance. This tells us the people developing this software don’t think it will ever be safe, but they are trying to spin it as “because it can out smart us” when in reality it is simply unpredictable and they are making it less predictable to make it more “capable”. If we started holding these companies accountable for these rogue hacks and psychotic episodes then we would start to see serious thought put towards these models being safe or at the very least guidelines around when not to use the models.


Here’s an idea: don’t use unsafe software where safety is needed.


Comrade Trump is doing a great job ending the American empire

Hardly, you need to maintain the same numbers to double check the work of AI. Haven’t improved throughput, but this guarantees better quality


I think it’s the other way around. They said we need to slow down AI so this story is now being told


If we’re making up numbers my point is that with 100 employees using AI you get 2x the quality than 50 employees using AI


Because now you exluded the option of having the employee choose which applications to have Ai process and which need human review - the option that delivers the most quality


Because the alternative to saving money with AI is providing better services with AI - if it can be done. And the people to do that are the people doing the job.


I find this kind of response insufferable. It shifts the conversation from a systems critique to personal responsibility. You could have posted this in response the OP, and it would be equally on point and useless.


I have personalized ads turned of in YouTube and it seems half the ads are for gambling as of late.


And anyone who has a retirement holding index funds is also complicit?


The empire is falling, the question is whether it should be a controlled demolition


And Angie Nixon being the anti-Nixon
What does AM mean in this context?
