"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Looks like the Friday deadline was set, because they needed anthropic for the attack?
Am I missing something? How would LLM be useful for operations like this?
They believe their own hype. Whether an LLM would be useful or not is irrelevant to the perception that it will be useful.
An llm gives you the ability to put responsibility on a machine. A machine can't be reprimanded for nuking an orphanage.
Plausible deniability. For example, if Anthropic caved, today's murder of 50 Iranian kids would probably be blamed on the AI fucking up. It would give them a scapegoat.
It's a mix of that and these people genuinely believing this garbage is actually remotely useful.
Fuck Anthropic and all AI companies, but at the same time good on them for not bending the knee here.
As everyone else says, to avoid accountability. That's the real "killer" app here.
Just look at use of "AI" in the ongoing gaza genocide, zio terror attacks on lebanon, etc.
This is already normal.
