I don’t presume Anthropic is designing anything to be ethical. First, the chatbot is unpredictable by design. Randomness is built in. Second, if they didn’t intend for bad things to happen, why didn’t an employee babysit it?

As the article said you can replace rogue agents with unpredictable computer programs if you really want, I don’t see the necessity.

Speaking of goalpost shifts: “Rogue agent” is the clickbait title across multiple articles. Remember you said nobody was misrepresenting the AIs. The still-inaccurate clarification (the unsupervised chatbot functioned exactly as it was designed to function, and the script running it allowed it to execute exactly the commands Anthropic wanted) doesn’t help the article the clarification is from. It certainly doesn’t absolve every other author.

the first article doesn’t say anything not factual

The title alone is not factual. AI did not go rogue. It behaved exactly as designed.

Have you considered an alternative to the browser as a PDF reader?

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.gitlab.mudlej.MjPdfReader/

I like this one, it’s plenty quick, and it doesn’t sit atop a whole web browser. (For desktops, I use SumatraPDF which is similarly snappy.)

Don’t take my word for it, but perhaps a Mastodon post shared to Lemmy. But you’d have to hunt down one that accepted copious amounts of text, and that’s saying Lemmy clients would format the result decently.

Nobody is claiming any of the things this article is fighting against

Three counterexamples:

• OpenAI models went rogue. The Guardian
• Why the Hugging Face Hack Should Make You Worry More About A.I. NY Times
• Hugging Face hack marks start of dangerous AI cyber era and many firms ‘don’t even know it’ CNBC

I realize we are in a bit of a bubble here, but this is the framing in the wider world

there were unintended negative consequences

Well…

I don’t think it’s possible to argue Rossman isn’t some degree of personally transphobic (for context, his video is about Brianna Titone, who is the first openly transgender state legislator elected in Colorado, and he is clearly referencing some degree of disagreement with her identity).

That much being said, he’s highlighting, to conservatives in his own audience, the fact that he wants to be both respectful and actually look beyond those personal beliefs to affect positive change. And based on his larger corpus of work, I don’t think that’s dishonest in any way.

Rossman doesn’t use his influence to lobby against trans rights. I don’t even think anybody would have known he had some personal issues until he mentioned them in a specific example that encourages people to set their own issues aside, for a positive cause.

“Aggressive” is how I understand the language of someone who attacks “natural intelligence” and promises to “very loudly ignore” the people he deems "social warrior"s and “religious” for not agreeing with his opinions, telling anyone who disagrees with him to “look in the mirror”.

People trusted Linux to be better than Microsoft Windows, and saw the effect of a company with tons of money and first-class AI access exponentially worsening their product.

It has been disappointing to see people like Linus Torvalds turn aggressive against people who do not agree with his ideology, and I find it distasteful for you to use reductive attacks against strawmen as well.

Considering Graphene’s entire reputation is staked on extremely precise definitions of security, this is a little concerning.

They’re the “best” (read: most secure) mobile operating system. If the best degrades, I don’t foresee some Graphene alternative stepping up very quickly (see also: cross-platform alternatives to Google-made Chromium and Google-funded Gecko)

Hmm.

“Fascism in your technology is inevitable”

I’ve heard similar but am not sure. You’d be better by confirming with offline version of the available models.

I believe I did this with DeepSeek’s distillation of Qwen, and it basically printed out state propaganda when I asked it about Tianmen Square… But that meant Qwen (from China’s Alibaba) was intentionally censored, not Deepseek itself. I can’t afford the hardware to test their model, especially not now.

while Anthropic was fast to call the cops on a frustrated Claude user, the Standard also reported a key detail: Anthropic refused to show police the actual messages, citing Anthropic’s internal policy. In short, Anthropic reported a user for in-platform speech, and then refused to provide police with evidence of actual wrongdoing.

Anthropic’s apparent game plan:

1. Get a list of anti-AI advocates
2. Swat them
3. Refuse to show evidence of claims

FYI: You are arguing with what the CSAM ad says. That’s what the article is quoting here.

I never had a problem with older TVs’ boot times. In fact, I remember them being faster, the farther back I go…

The mass-extinction causing orphan-crushing torment nexus is a tool, just like other tools we use.

Well, obviously! Microsoft is using this tool too, and as we can all observe, that’s making their competing OS much better and much more desirable.
