there's literally a comment sibling to the one you're responding to saying he wants to PAY FOR ADS. It's really hard to tell satire apart from I WANT TO PAY FOR ADS around these parts.

complaints should be be about what is happening

Why would you think that? An ad supported product has misaligned incentives, everyone can see that and that's why the confidence erodes from that moment on.

You're living in the era in which saying "Stallman was right" is a dead cold take. Every big tech company sold out exactly like the hippies told you they would back when Google was a dream place to work for and Meta was still a twinkle in zuk's eyes.

You can't fight this battle in the current judicial system. If before anyone can successfully bring a lawsuit in front of a judge the company has unlimited money, then at least one of these three things will be true:

a. the damages won't make a dent

b. they can throw lawyers at the problem for the win

c. they will have grafted their way into the economy so deeply that no one will want to kill their main source of income

This battle is already lost, if they find economical success then they are untouchable.

Keep fighting the good fight. Also, offering a counterpoint for the sibling comments: Yandex results are the most valuable for the type of thing censored in all other search engines. If I want to search for news on the war on Ukraine I go anywhere, but the things yandex works for are censored everywhere else.

Every company that I've worked with that provided models internally did so through LiteLLM and offered both Anthropic and OpenAI models so it was trivial to switch between them.

I mean, you could. I've read your blog and it's quite well-written, not only just better-than-know-your-meme. Thank you btw, some really nice reads there.

I appreciate the detailed response. It's a very important topic that is often filled with empty platitudes and not enough detail.

this is incredible graph work (despite the bleak subject)

The Gramsican march through the institutions is complete

what in the ever living conspiracy theory hot pot is that

300 million fully armed and trained Americans

not even close

I won the lottery of life, born in the latter half of the 20th century in a British colony with running hot water

but not enough money to treat this deep-seated mental illness?

It won’t affect me, I’ll be dead in 30 years

thank god or maybe it's too long

That makes sense as well, I think it's a nice human perspective. People really are uniquely tired lately.

the OpenAI comms guy who responded already scrubbed his X account

who responded to what?

But distribution isn't the only crime here, obtaining the material illegally apparently is a crime too. And the damn robot can also spit me harry Potter verbatim so I don't know how it would also not be distribution?

Not disagreeing, but I wonder how much you have to fuck up to put a trillion dollar company in trouble. Surely it can't be that bad, right?

after reading yours and themaninthedark comments I understand what you're getting at

The difference is you'll get caught a luddite and hear you're opposing progress if you try to get in the way of AI doing any and everything.

Announcers get very touchy with listings data, so even compiling listings from multiple sources is hard without getting cease-and-desisted. Then, realtors will certainly flood competing announcements and post fake reviews. It's an aggressive market.

Why would that be more useful than fighting this fraud? Surely the original images would be more realistic than one passed through AI two times.

but I don't see any evidence

Isn't this screenshot on the article evidence https://storage.ghost.io/c/39/f8/39f85cc7-8637-40fc-a57c-f45... ? Or could it still be the "I can't believe it's not DMCA" you've mentioned?

I think that's a pretty well balanced first analysis of this, considering how much we don't know, the IPO "slots" seem to be the most obvious influence.

you mention wedding ring like it's a bad thing

Nah man that's not it

We liked to pretend that our current technology wave wasn't driven by any ideology at all, so much so that it became a dirty word. But look at these billionaires talking amongst themselves, look at Thiel, look at Musk: their ideology is so compelling and they're so willing to go to bat for it that it materialized in the current state of affairs; and now only ideologies that are different from theirs are in fact dirty words.

I've yet to meet anyone outside that likes AI except for manager or when people are pretending for their bosses at work. It became a survival tactic.

what do django do that's contrived in js or say aspnet or rails?

that's a really useful way to frame the discussion around tooling

No diabetic with baseline adult competence is going to drive their insulin-delivery vehicle off a cliff because some app said so.

if you can't trust this thing then what is it doing? the implication that people that trust this software do not have adult competency is also confusing.

Is your perspective based on, say, opinionated principle?, or experience?

your perspective is solely based on recent trauma so I don't know if it is more reliable in any capacity

Programmers are the easiest target: they're the group most averse to organizing; their bosses, however, are not.

HN is the most concentrated accelerationist audience in the whole world and its very particular type of crowd. I don't think this translates at all to general public (well, maybe I would agree with you that the aesthetic sense of people on here is really less sophisticated than average).

you're arguing against things that have no material effect. "oh won't you think about adversarial discourse about the most well funded industry in recent history"

is this really the case ? I thought they had given up on fleet
