i think there are major safety and security problems w/ LLMs and making them available (having been in the room when a major gov agency ran Fable over their codebase and asked for any open vectors... 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃) but i do not trust anyone with a security title at any of these labs lol

and i get it, connecting systems that have private data of ppl is scary but it made actually serving those folks (this was for homeless people that had multiple contacts with the city) so much harder

nyc had a separate system for 3rd party social workers to use, that did not connect to the system that the cities social workers used, and it was someones job to migrate data between the two

maybe part of the problem is they keep offloading safety to external partners who keep doing things like "allowing the sandbox access to the open internet"

discussion from its origin and intellectual center, because its center is
predatory sex cult started by a fan fiction author. Since those involved
to be taken seriously, they have to hide that. Everyone else working in
Safety is, effectively, a smokescreen for this core group and their ideas

In the past I’d have taken the spreadsheet CMS gave me as the truth and just hoped it was right (never the case), now I can verify over thousands of documents in a weekend and make sure the people who rely on me get the absolute best information

Right now I’m using it to scan the tens of thousands of pages of PDFs for the 2027 health care plans that just dropped in CMS’s servers, using it to find the best benefits (e.g. over the counter cash) for folks who are also on SNAP and have trouble understanding their choices

“If Mark Zuckerberg is talking he is lying to” is the only safe assumption. If you are using Muse I am afraid you are getting suckered yet again, this time with personal consequences instead of just societal ones.

A thing I learned about Meta when I was trying to understand how their statements relate to their actions a few years ago is that *they just tell absolutely indefensible lies* and journalists almost always let them. They believed no one would ever punish them for it in any way that matters.

THE STORIES I HAVE from working at hot desk areas in weworks omg. the entire “The League” app was run from the quiet area, loudly yelling how many fake profiles they needed to make. A nootropic company that told a new guy “we’ll work on your visa soon but let’s just get to work on your tourist one”
