I have also been thinking about this, because as far as I know you’re correct - at least under US copyright law, AI output is not copyrightable, and since you don’t own it you can’t license it. All AI code is public domain (again, at least in the US). It’s surprising to me that there has been little discussion about this, and Linus himself has not addressed it

I am not sure it was initially created for evil, I do believe that its discovery was mostly academic and in that it was, and still is, a pretty significant/interesting one. It was very quickly and very strongly made into the perfect weapon for the information age for sure, but i doubt that the original researchers wanted that, or just really thought of the implications outside of information theory. But it was indeed Google, surveillance capitalism incarnate, that initially gifted transformers to the world and kickstarted the whole thing…

Edit: I realised that I inadvertently made this comment about “AI” by way of pronouns when I’m really talking about LLMs. Google of course did not invent AI, and I more strongly disagree that AI in its actual sense was invented for or is inherently evil.

Lots of telling, not a lot of showing sources

Blacklists of what?

Depends on the workload. This probably would not be great for gaming or audio production, but it might be for video editing and local LLMs

I’m pretty sure that has always been the case and they’re just openly advertising it as a marketing attempt now because antitrust is dead

Not sure what you’re getting at. I know you use eights, I’m just saying no one else does. You’re the only ones convinced that fractions are better than decimals.

Almost no one outside of the US/UK knows how many grams there are in an ounce, whether they use drugs or not. Why would they?

That’s… not great

They are not looking for that. Customs/airport police is, if they stop you, but drugs aren’t included in the forbidden items. Of course if it’s egregious they will probably flag you and hand you over to them

The “deci” prefix is just a coincidence then?

Any domain can be put on serverHold or redirected, and recently that has happened on autistici.org without even a court order. Seems to me like “owning” a domain the usual way offers no additional guarantees or benefit

Isn’t every registrar “just renting” domains? What is the pragmatic difference between regular registrars and “proxy” ones from the perspective of a registrant?

As far as I know technically you never own a domain, it’s a delegation. You might be right that they do some legal maneuvering to avoid having to collect technically required contact details, but the end result is that they do not have any info to give away even if the legal protection layer “fails”.

Yeah, more than piracy this is straight up fraud

It can help, but the only thing that’s guaranteed to stop data exfiltration is disconnecting the WiFi hardware completely

Incredible to see them thinking they have any deniability.

Are you also using a different model and harness or are you just ignoring the 10k+ tokens of system context that claude code has in its “holistic view”?
