All time choke job and I don’t want to hear about Wemby again, I’m over it

That’s not what they said cyberscoop.com/openai-china-i…

@deanwball @markerdmann @dwlz Is it? Because i can see a future where if the gov nationalizes this or all of a sudden decide sthat this stuff is critical infrastructure., it becomes too-big-to-fail. which means the gov can/will cover when the bottom falls out.

@markerdmann @dwlz no, that’s 8d chess shit

My last observation re: Anthropic’s secret sabotage safety policy, is that it undermines actually good safety policy. How? 1. First, it is very plausible to describe this as anti-competitive behavior (even if you are maximally sympathetic to Anthropic here you must admit this), and it is behavior being justified in the name of AI safety. If you believe, as I and many Anthropic staff do, that it may end up being critically important to relax antitrust enforcement so that the frontier labs can cooperate and collaborate on some areas of AI safety, Anthropic just undermined the case for that in a large way. 2. Overall, this massively and profoundly raises the status of the argument that AI safety has been hype to justify monopolistic behavior by labs. I continue to believe AI safety is a real and serious issue that is growing in importance rather than diminishing. If you agree with me, this incident is a setback, maybe a serious one. 3. As I have observed elsewhere, Anthropic’s official corporate policy is structurally identical to the fact pattern alleged against them by the Department of War. I still think DoW acted both falsely and wrongly in that fight, but it is no longer possible to defend Anthropic with a full throat after this incident. 4. This raises the case for heavier handed regulations. Anthropic is making an awfully good case here that their products ought to be treated as utilities, and thus that their alignment practices should be a matter of public policy rather than private property. I am starkly opposed to this sort of state power grab, but Anthropic is doing more to justify it than anyone else. 5. Thus, significant damage has been done to a community and entire approach to AI governance. It was done unilaterally by Anthropic, likely motivated largely by self-interest and justified within the internal psychology of the firm through the lens of safety. I suspect this is fixable in the economic and legal senses for Anthropic, but I fear the trust that has just been broken, and the goodwill extinguished, will take very much time to repair.

@BenjyCroft @JoshReynolds24 And got called for the foul. Quit whining

@JoshReynolds24 Yeah Brunson is the one who is doing something wrong. Not Castle who hits him like a linebacker. SMH

This type of hoops drives me batshit crazy… It goes against everything taught. Crash the glass hard, turn, find your man, put a body on them & box out Brunson knows exactly what he’s doing. 0 intention of boxing out. EVERY intention of drawing the foul.

@Turtle_Proxy @NSacks29334 Three straight clears youtu.be/gs-lDczrBz0?si…

@gregotto @NSacks29334 Skill issue, Greg

I'm not going to gate keep it, top players / streamers are already abusing it. You just load into PvE Night Marsh with 3 Tirages, grab 7 UESC Keys for the elevator for the loot room in complex, make sure you grab the commander key, and you get end game season golds. It's how you're seeing vaults with 5 gold Misriahs already.

@VanLathan Third: maybe he just isn’t as good as we thought

RE: Wemby Choke job? Or we going with youth?

@MostCrucified They did the same thing with Destiny. They cater to streamers/unemployed bc they are terminally “monitoring the situation”

genuinely hilarious how bad they are making this game if you have a few hours a day to play you have the worst experience in the world cuz the only people left on the game are the 12 hour no lifers spending all day exploiting things til it's patched

@SpikeEskin was right on multiple fronts

Oh my god

@NotDigit4l Terrible!

@gregotto and how did it feel

streamers will be the downfall of marathon

“You can’t leave Landry Shamet” - a real sentence said out loud during the NBA FINALS

@MidaSponsordKit Standard Bungie, catering to the terminally online

complainers won💔💔 job havers take another L

Is Wemby aware he is the best player on the floor

@geekypastimes @MarathonDevTeam youll be fine

This might sound crazy, but I think the @MarathonDevTeam should re-do the start of season wipe and not give anyone any sponsored kits. Video coming soon to explain why, but the purple sponsored kits were a mistake.

@IamDijami Stoney Case

Whoever names the most obscure QB wins.

@TheBeach53 You and your brother couldn’t watch a game with me bc I turn into a lunatic about the off-arm push off. Every offensive call against Jaylen Brown in the Sixers series was manna from heaven

@gregotto Other than first move and JB initiating contact before the shot, there is very little contact between the two. MJ would have had to deal with both hands of the defender on his chest and hips. Way different environment now. 😜

They say players in the modern NBA don’t play defense What in the world are you supposed to do with this?
