@tunguz i've been quite discombobulated today, on release i was winding down for bed so it didnt register. mulling it all over today, trying to predict what setting this precedent means for the future.. my brain is struggling, like I've been roundhouse kicked in the head. really odd

The thing that blows my mind is how casually people assume these decisions are objective.

They’re not.

Every definition of harm, truth, safety, acceptable speech, and acceptable inquiry is being filtered through human beings with their own backgrounds, biases, incentives, and worldview.

That’s true for Silicon Valley.

That’s true for governments.

That’s true for universities.

That’s true for everyone.

Which is exactly why “trust us, we’re the right people to decide for everybody” isn’t an answer. It’s the question.

@tunguz The worst kind of people are those who believe they have the right and moral superiority to tell everyone else what is the right or wrong thing to do.

@tunguz give it 6 months and we’ll have a 99% as capable open source and/or jailbreak version of fable/mythos

Personally, I’m entirely over anthropic altogether. There are too many compelling alternatives and too many good resources out there that are borderline AGI that to not engineer with tools that are simply open source or not gated is more of the responsibility of the consumer at this point then out of Anthropic.
