Solid chance Openai goes belly up and takes softbank and oracle with it. Couldn't happen to more deserving companies.
Looks like OpenAI may have stolen another mathematicians work.
A lot of people are speculating that this will lead to the US government having to bail out AI companies but there's no world where that happens and the government bond market doesn't completely collapse and cause a fiscal crisis.
I think every major company is looking at open weight AI models and realizing they can just bring them in house with an internal engineering team and cut out the frontier model companies to save money. They have more control and privacy. I really don't see frontier labs surviving this.
This is a pretty cool use of AI. They had it scan reddit comments to analyze adverse effects of GLP1s that weren't analyzed during trials. They noticed menstrual issues were prominent. Then they dug through the FDA adverse event reporting database and were able to verify and publish a paper on it.
People are using AI coding tools to jailbreak TVs and install open source software to remove the intrusive Spyware installed on TVs that monitor everything you watch to sell to advertisers. We're starting to see this in anything that uses software now. Closed source is dying.
Dario Amodei, the Anthropic CEO issued a call for a pause on Ai research and within hours Sam Altman and Elon Musk agreed. I feel like something happened they aren't disclosing that spooked them. Musk in particular was saying the safety thing was a psyop to regulate the industry just 2 days ago.
As someone who really wants AI companies to be limited in the damage they're doing to the world, it's incredibly frustrating when the most vocal contingent of AI skeptics keep repeating the idea that AI doesn't work at all. Maybe that was the case 3 years ago but not any longer.
Really trying not to feel like a doomer but I really worry we're less than a year from a major catastrophic event involving AI. The capabilities are scaling faster than we can effectively monitor and the frontier labs are engaging in extremely reckless behavior.
Every time I post stuff about AI, I lose followers even when I'm neutral or critical of it. I could just easily say AI sucks and rake in the likes and followers but I don't because I think this site is burying its head in the sand and making the left unable to be taken seriously on regulating AI.
