Re mistagged games, I think you may be opening yourself up to lawsuits, especially if this project succeeds in driving sales away from slop. Just look at Reddit as a cautionary tale of what community moderation can lead to: power tripping and astroturfing.

I'm all for something like this, but practically speaking I think it's more effective to have store fronts force AI disclosure on store pages (and add filtering functionality). If a developer lies about it, they may be liable for false advertising. It's also just more useful for consumers to have this information at the point of purchase (a browser extension could pull this off)

Itch.io recently added an AI disclosure category to all games, and I think it's a good start.

the developer is Anthropic

More like the developers are the people whose code Anthropic stole

If it works as promised it’s likely that Microsoft will soon be making them an offer they cannot refuse.

Yet another reason to avoid it

The precursor to artificial hyperintelligence.

They're not evil, and "went corporate" is a vague and meaningless jab.

Dont idolize people is generally good advice though. I think these guys' problem is that they're old and jaded, and should've stepped down long ago. If there's no one fit to take their place, that's a reflection of their failure as leaders.

"People"

I'm in the US and my father recently hit me with a barely coherent anti-Muslim rant. He's never brought them up while discussing politics with me (I was very young during 9/11) and has never showed any animosity towards them in front of me. He even went through a phase where he was into Turkish soap operas a few years ago, so he probably got at least some positive exposure to Muslim people during that time.

My guess was MAGA operatives/bots on his brain rot TikTok/Insta feed due to the war and midterms, but Israel makes sense too.

I hate seeing this kind of doomerism around AI discussions. A future where we have no rights is not inevitable.

We know for a fact that OpenAI, Anthropic, Google etc trained on GPL code. They haven't claimed otherwise, and this isn't something they're trying to hide.

We also know what the various open source models were trained on, since they're open source.

We can pass laws that require LLM providers to disclose their data set in some way, eg through independent audits. Trump is the one who didn't want AI regulation, and he basically just lost all ability to make that a reality. The final six weeks of the pedophile congress isn't likely to accomplish anything on that front, and even if they do, the incoming congress can reverse it.

This is the time to energize people, not complain on the internet.

I recall articles saying that significant input/prompt may influence that. Whether this is true or not I can’t say.

That's not true. Until these issues have run through the courts, we won't know what is or isn't legal. The biggest court case I'm familiar with atm is the New York Times' case that has yet to be resolved, and even then the ruling there will probably be too narrow to decide anything for code licensing. Hell, OpenAI/Microsoft might even settle to avoid a bad ruling, leaving all those questions unanswered.

So the Tl;Dr is that anyone using LLMs to code (in any capacity) is taking a risk, since the legality of it is still uncertain. It's not outside the realm of possibility that some court will rule that LLMs trained on stolen data are illegal, and the outputs of those models are infringing.

Every Discord user is already in their "ecosystem". Even if you use a third party client, every single message you send is available to them to scan/sell to advertisers or cops with zero barriers whatsoever.

The only benefit of a third party client (besides UX enhancements and customization) is that Discord can't execute malware/spyware natively on your PC. This is something they will inevitably do in the future in an effort to chase endless growth, but afaik it's not happening today. They make enough money from the data they harvest from your chats, at least for now.

Portuguese, not Spanish (but close enough lol). I wonder if it's a wayward bot from Bolsonaro's bot farm? He probably just forgot to turn one off when he fled to the US.

Monopolies got us to this point. Another monopoly isn't going to save us.

The solution is politics, regulations, and enforcement. These companies are breaking laws, and have even been found to do so in court (see how many times Google has been found to be a monopoly, for example). The problem is spineless and/or corrupt judges and politicians not doing anything about it.

But just a few weeks ago, MAGA seemed unstoppable, and today it's completely dead. There are still corrupt dems in power though, and they're going to try to steer us towards the same do-nothing equilibrium of before, so we gotta keep the pressure up. This is a great time to write to your elected officials, especially the ones who weren't up for reelection this cycle.
