    Well, we do have ex post facto protection for the moment, soooo…

    Yeah I have it on every device I own now.

    No reason to use it ever, but it’s there. Like, not installed, but there.

    Didn’t I just read an article about Apple wanting to use it. It’s open source it can be forked and be American tomorrow. No matter how much Openai crys. This just shows the true lack of any knowledge on the subject. I’m not a fan of the Chinese government as much of the next guy. But the information is out there.

      Honest Questions Can a model be open source? Dont we need the data it was trained on to truly be able to reproduce, understand and modify it?

        sure a model could theoretically be open source, but in this case that source would be 1) the software to train the model and 2) the training data, and good fucking luck getting either of those honestly.

        the AI sphere has co-opted the term “open source” because it sounds nice, what they actually mean is just “a free copy”, a free copy of deepseek is available for download.

        They seem to be able to fiddle a lot with the models, but in the end calling it open source is just blatantly not fucking true.

    As well as banning research. Absurd overreach of government and it will accomplish the opposite of what it wants.

            The Nazis were also extremely incompetent when I came to stuff like this. Hitler had generals scrambling behind his back to produce their best weapon, but he kept finding out and making them stop along with tons of other micromanaging.

            Trump is an idiot and so is musk. Most business people are short sighted and fascists even more. They also may be high on their own farts and think the system won’t collapse with them “in charge” like a toddler left in s room full of candles and napalm.

            Not saying that foreign powers aren’t loving this, but they don’t have to have control over it.

    A dying empire doing everything it can to delay the inevitable. We really are watching the beginning of the end of the US hegemony aren’t we?

      The theory that the builders of Empire were the ones that understood it, and the inheritors of Empire are true believers in the false justification the builders gave and thus defeat itself when given the reigns is coming more and more true.
