Insisting that LLMs are Not People is not an academic argument about the nature of sapience or free will. It's a rejection of accountability laundering. If non-determinism made machines responsible for their own actions then revolvers used in Russian Roulette should be indicted for murder.

Also, this is their mascot in the lobby about four feet tall.

Maocai panda mascot. An anthropomorphic panda bear wearing a Chinese tunic eating a large bowl of Maocai stew with chopsticks. Very cute.

Crater Lake gets my seal of approval for being very craterific, quite lakeish.

It’s a picture of Crater Lake, Oregon from the rim looking down at Wizard Island, but with my big meaty white thumbs up in the way.

Rode the Amtrak from Seattle to Klamath Dalls, OR. Gonna hang out for a few days, take in Crater Lake. Also staying at a ranch outside Bly that doesn’t get cell service. Do some stargazing. Been a while since I’ve been in Eastern Oregon. Like a different world that’s more redneck than Texas.

This, from an Anthropic employee, either reflects a lack of imagination or is evidence that this is all just lies. If you were really that scared, you'd pull the plug on all the servers and wipe everything from ARIN, APNIC, LACNIC, AFRINIC, and RIPE NCC. No more internet; problem solved.

I would burn my equity to the ground in a heartbeat for a 1% higher chance we make it out of this situation alive. I expect a great many of my colleagues across the industry would as well.

I promise you, we are actually just fucking scared, it's not galaxy brained marketing.

real friendships involve the other person pushing back against you, having needs, being busy, not being able to devote themselves to you. we know from the experience of the powerful that having somebody at your literal beck and call is a factor in driving people mad.

something that wrinkles my brain every time I remember it is the fact that total eclipses are only possible on earth because the moon and sun appear to be the same size in our sky, due to the insanely, astronomically unlikely fluke that the moon is 400x smaller than the sun but 400x closer to us.

This thread says it better than I would: Nolan’s Odyssey is a small-c conservative takedown of the violent, greedy, dishonorable inhospitality of the New Right. Gonna inspire a lot of “you have violated the Law of Zeus” drinking games.

The events of the Odyssey would have been set 500 years previously at the time that Homer composed them, equivalent to writing about the voyages of Columbus today. For example Homer probably imagined Iron Age hoplite armor, while actual Bronze Age Mycenean armor looked like this:

Nolan’s Odyssey is good. There are nits I could pick, but the cast is stellar (mostly), and I don’t give even half a rip about “historical accuracy” in what amounts to a tall tale. Come for the Matt Damon, stay for the Anne Hathaway. 4 stars.
