“We put them in our agreement” means there are no restrictions in the underlying models, unlike Anthropic, and you’re relying on *checks notes* the Trump administration to hold to this. So. Yeah.

these are mostly people with principles. they are very strange principles. they are not your principles. but whether or not they are pervasive in the organization. 80% of the people they have key man insurance on will fuck off into retirement at 38 or whatever if their bosses do this.

also almost no one got into this field for the money. this is strange to say about people who are almost all rich, but you could make a pretty good living in NLP in 2015. you couldn't get insanely rich.

almost every senior person you would want to hire in this industry is rich enough that they don't have to work for you, because they don't have to work for anyone. this leads to weird incentives in that they aren't fighting over static pools of labor but an elastic one where ethics are important.

As Anthropic and OpenAI take opposite positions on the responsible uses of AI, keep in mind that Dario Amodei is an actual scientist with a Ph.D. in biophysics from Princeton, where he focused on electrophysiology of neural circuits. Sam Altman is a high school-educated computer software salesman.

When Trump got reelected I tried to warn people that however bad they thought it was going to be, it was gonna be worse than that. I was so, so wrong. It's even fucking worse than the worst you could imagine. These are Nazis with 21st century knowledge, weapons, and finances.

The assumption that most people act for the greater good and/or at heart are “good” is just a straight up flawed assessment of the world. Most people won’t KILL, but most will happily go on with their lives while others are killed. As evidence, I’d like to present: uh, the entire world.

Unfounded optimism is the single greatest threat to human survival, and it’s not even close. Blithely believing things naturally arc towards getting better by default prevents any honest assessment of the problems, and, as such, prevents any possible solutions being implemented. Uh…sorry.

In 2025, Oklahoma’s health care system was ranked 49th—nearly the worst in the country—by the Commonwealth Fund. Now, President Trump and his administration are attempting something similar on a national scale. bit.ly/4kIeSAV

What’s Next for US Healthcare? Ask Oklahoma.
As Trump continues to dismantle federal agencies, this state shows what happens when a one-party-controlled government makes sweeping public health changes with little resistance.

I hate to tell you this, but the Democratic leadership is complicit in the fascist takeover of the American government. Discourse, voting, peaceful protest and law will not stop this. You’ll either figure this out soon and remove Trump, or you’ll figure it out after millions die and remove him.

Brazil and South Korea both had military dictatorships that massacred civilians in living memory. Like Gen X childhood living memory. That's why there are consequences, because no one has the American misbelief that "it can't happen here!" It did. They remember.

Roughly 70 employees will be impacted by the Bluepoint closure. Bluepoint was working on a God of War live-service game until it was canceled early last year. The studio then spent the last year pitching and trying to determine what it would do next. Full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I interviewed a family of Russian asylum seekers who’ve been held more than four months at the Dilley detention center in Texas. As we spoke over Zoom this week, their daughter Kamilla was one day shy of turning 12. I asked her what she wanted for her birthday. She replied: “To get out of here.”

'Even in Russia, they don't treat children like this': A family's nightmare in ICE detention
A Russian couple and their children sought asylum in the U.S. In a Texas detention center, they say they endured worms in the food and hourslong waits for medicine.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.
On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being “served food that contained worms.”

A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.

The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

May every ICE employee have this cruelty returned to them seven-fold. May they be old and starved, powerless and abused, cold and scorned, taunted and rejected. May there be no escape for them, no respite, no rescue.
