    So much for holding back. GMAFB.

    @Nonilex

    I wonder how fast they will fold. The other thing I fully expect to read in a few days is how much they are already doing the things they said they aren’t doing..

    This isn’t the same way we ring said that they discontinued their agreement with flock surveillance, only to find out through reporting that they were already selling data to quite a few different surveillance companies

      @GhostOnTheHalfShell @Nonilex we were just "auditing" it, you know, to see what it could do.

        #Anthropic said it would fight the blacklisting in court. In a blog post late Friday, the company said that it believed the wide-reaching ban #Hegseth described was not permitted by federal #law & that the designation of the company as a #SupplyChainRisk was “legally unsound.”

        @Nonilex I would say 100% a good bet. “Constructive Debarment Without Due Process”

          Earlier in the week, Jeff Dean, #Google’s chief #AI scientist, said he was opposed to the #technology being used for #surveillance & repeated his long-standing opposition to #AutonomousWeapons.

          #SamAltman, #OpenAI’s chief executive, said Friday that it was important for AI companies to find ways to work with the #Pentagon but that he had concerns similar to those of his rival #Amodei.

                @Nonilex If we had a working government and any allies, we would be forming treaties now like we did with nuclear weapons, chemical weapons and cluster bombs, etc. Ben Rhodes. Not a direct quote I paraphrased.

                  …Many researchers & engineers working on #AI have long harbored concerns about their #technology being used to power #weapons or #surveillance. The battle between #Anthropic & the #Pentagon has reawakened those concerns across the industry.

                  By Friday afternoon, >550 employees at #Google & #ChatGPT maker #OpenAI signed an open letter in support of Anthropic’s position & calling on their bosses to stand up to the Pentagon.

                      in the book, veruca salt went down the bad nut shaft, thrown by the squirrels. violet still ate the complete meal gum and went blue.

                      always preferred the book to the movies.

                          The madness continues …

                          #OpenAI reaches deal to deploy #AI models on US Department of #Defense #classified network

                          #SamAltman said Friday OpenAi reached an agreement with the #DoD.

                          "In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety & a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome," Altman posted on X using the #Trump admin’s BS name for the DoD.
