After Anthropic refused flat out to agree to apply Claude AI to autonomous weapons and mass surveillance of American citizens, OpenAI jumps right into bed with the United States Department of War.
I mean, I’m not gonna defend him. But fucking up a discord that you’re a mod of isn’t really in the same ballpark as taking money from dictators or directing fully autonomous strikes. Also, from the read, it really sounds like that Deputy CISO was a prime example of cyber-psychosis, or AI mania, or whatever we’ve decided to call it. And I assume he is part of the same vulnerable minority?
Every example we have of Anthropic’s behavior paints a picture of an immoral company that pretends to be moral. It’s bad enough that they continue doing harm, but then they dress it up with phrases like “AI Safety” and “Information Security”. (And every press release they create to describe how scary good their system is, tends to be followed up by a sudden cash infusion from an openly morally bankrupt company like Google or Amazon.)
I reserve zero empathy for the people on the abuser side of an abusive dynamic. Maybe Elon Musk is autistic too. I don’t really care. Only Moloch knows their hearts. I’ll judge them for their actions.
I did find an update on that funding, btw. Anthropic already took money from Qatar (the QIA), but the amount isn’t known - likely around $100M. The UAE has yet to happen, but if does, it would be “hundreds of millions”.
Interesting. I appreciate you doing the digging to check. It’s frustrating that people spent so much time looking at the fact that Anthropic had an uncrossed red line, they didn’t look at all the red lines that were already crossed - in the very article about those supposed red lines. Such is PR I guess.
I suppose you saw that “He Will Not Divide Us 2.0” letter from OpenAI and Google employees who promised to stand behind Anthropic. Never mind the fact OpenAI split… Doesn’t anybody know Google already does mass surveillance of Americans?
