Cool cool cool. So all the code and data you send to anthropic and chatgpt should be mass distributable to forward other peoples arts and science? All your meeting notes with ai summarizers, slack chats with bots? Might as well put your entire company and all plans for it on github mit licensed. Ill take a peek, see if there's anything valuable to me in that. Don't worry you can keep it all on your github too. It's still yours afterall. Copilot will be training on it too though btw

That's a privacy violation, not relevant.

No it's not. You exposed that data to an LLM. Should have read the fine print. The laws around that don't make sense to me anymore so therefore I own that stuff now. That's how this works right? You do know chatgpt etc can read everything you write, right?

Also social media profile pics. Great way to get faces for deep fake ads. Most people are just 1 phone call away from being voice cloned. Our likeness isn't all that important either if you think about it.

Maybe meta will clone your writing style and sign into your meta account and message your friends telling them about this awesome new product. Meta owns the account and you uploaded data to it.


Literally none of these things are defensible positions, so nobody will take you seriously.

Many of the things I wrote are already happening. The others probably are but haven't been reported yet.

I think Anthorpic has pledged to not use team and enterprise user's data for training purposes. I don't mind if they do some verification or whatever as long as it doesn't end up in the responses it gives others.

What Silicon Valley company over a decade old has respected the limitations on using data that they agreed to? At least any valuable data.

yes yes and google pledged "don't be evil"

Don't be naïve. A corporation would tear the flesh from your body if it meant a better quarterly earnings report.


Yea nope. I like the full book without any loss of information. Even if I don't want to read the entire book. LLMs love to respond even when something is outside of their training set.

Speaking of ai and meth, have you seen videos of the palantir CEO Alex karp? Dude looks like he's regularly getting the same meth shots Hitler used to get.

But I hear you. One of my biggest tells that someone can't be reasoned with is when they resort to whataboutism without any consideration for how 2 situations can actually be different even if there is some commonality. It's a powerful bad faith argument technique. When that style of argument comes up I nod my head and walk away. Some people are just doomed.


[flagged]


I am not s copyright maximalist, but I would tell you be careful of a world where copyright and IP is meaningless. Might as well let any other country/company one shot your entire industry.

Slippery slope, false dilemma, etc. What other fallacies do you have in your utility belt, batman?

How did you know I was Bruce wayne?

Where's my goddamn electric car Bruce?

This is rage bait and isn't worth spending any oxygen on it.

If it elicits rage that has nothing to do with me. It's interesting that no one was able to defend their positions. So of course you guys jump to just flagging everything and doing a whole "investigation" of my posts.

Trump won because he's popular and none of the slander is sticking. Take it out on me I guess.


Because meta will delay any case for several years. Then the lawyers will settle for 1/100th to 1/1000th of what they stole quietly. Meta will rebrand and change its name again just like it did after its last major scandal.

No accountability for rich people has funny patterns like this.


They might not need to change their name. I don't think that copyright infringement is seen as bad by Americans compared to the privacy stuff that Facebook is known for—not that most Americans care about privacy, I guess I don't really know why Facebook rebranded.

Personally, I would be happy if AI companies are what finally take down intellectual monopoly (intellectual property). I know being anti-intellectual-monopoly isn't a common view, but i don't see average people thinking it is so important—as you can see by the huge increases in piracy recently. Could be wrong about this, I haven't done research on public opinion about copyright.

Honestly, this whole case could be great. Either copyright loses, good for us. Or Zuckerberg loses, also good for us.

I would say that copyright loses is better for society than Zuckerberg loses because, my wish for Zuckerberg to lose is from hatred, while my wish for copyright to be abolished is from my wish to help humanity.

Even Supreme Court justices[1] have said the case for copyright is thin.

They don’t need to rebrand - “Meta” (after / exceeding) is a catch all for whatever they’re being meta at today: piracy / privacy infringement / theft / slop production etc.

Nah, it’s short for metastasis. The only apt name for a company that is after growth an any cost

No they don't it's just a smear campaign because the US tech companys are freaking out

Woah. How is this working? It's stupid fast.

The weights are mapped directly to transistors. It's not a generic processor, it's literally a dedicated Llama 8B chip that can't be used for anything else. When you specialize in hardware you get faster - Taalas is pushing that to the limit.

They seem to be doing well. I checked recently and their API is closed to signups due to overwhelming demand.


Yes I would just go with qwen.

Some of the early quants for qwen3.6 were broken. It's still finicky but with a little hand holding it's crazy.

Local models are the future it's awesome


It's approaching near impossible. The amount of articles posted to hn that are near AI slop is so high it's almost not worth using anymore.

The blandest-common-deonominator audience here on HN doesn't help, either. A modern-day equivalent of zombo.com or "Bert is Evil" or other quirkiness would have a hard time ranking highly here. Possible, but unlikely. Whereas the usual "I built My Generic SAS in Elixir!" and "My Musings On AI" posts shoot to the top.

I mostly hang out in small online communities that essentially become tightly curated by people I am interested in interacting with.

Most of those got absorbed by reddit for me. Reddit has some awesome characteristics. But over the past two years it's becoming more and more bots. You used to be able to make a reddit account without an email, now you can't for obvious reasons.

You can still make an account without an email because reddit doesn’t verify emails. You can put whatever you want in the email line. I have made dozens of accounts this way. No idea if the associated emails are even valid.
