We’ve come a long way from the days of very bad I.n.t.e.l.l.i.g.e.n.c.e.

Anyway, since I first came across it, the mmacevedo story has been the lens through which I think about that. If you believe any of these things are conscious, you should be pretty horrified at how we are using them.

To be clear, actual slavery of humans is obviously much worse.

I was at the Smithstonian Nat'l Museum of African American history last week. And it's very much not the point, but given the times we live in, it was hard not to give some thought to whether and how the history of slavery informs anything about the "AI" debates we see everywhere now

Since some of us are pretending that LLMs are conscious again today, it's probably a good time to post this short story. If for no other reason than to help me find it again the next time I want to read it. qntm.org/mmacevedo

It's fascinating to me that at a time when it is becoming more and more obvious LLM companies aren't exercising ordinary care, they are also going out of their way to tell us all that the service they provide is inherently dangerous

Wait, you can just appeal random interlocutory orders in ny???

You (and an intense desire to procrastinate) have just caused me to read way more about the history of toilets than I ever expected to read.

That isn’t helping you refill the cat pic library.

reminder: this is only america’s 250th birthday if you believe life begins at conception. the constitution went into effect on march 4, 1789. we have 13 years to get the real 250th birthday right

It's not the most interesting part of this but I always enjoy hearing the non-lawyer perspective on IP (here, training and fair use). this guy's music is amazing too www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUxL...
