"setting HN on fire" is an unfortunate phrase that one might otherwise wholly be able to get behind

damn english and its imprecision!

of course, with this lot “can currently only be used to donate to charity” is also not quite the firewall one would expect it to be …

those fucking asks, though

We therefore call upon advanced AI companies to commit to these principles:

That the company will not enter into or enforce any agreement that prohibits “disparagement” or criticism

subtooting the real openai, will the real openai please stand up

"pls mr openai will you not kill all my shares pls I believed so hard?"

That the company will facilitate a verifiably anonymous process for current and former employees to raise risk-related

"I believe I was unfairly edged out because of my beliefs and I want to speak to the manager"

That the company will support a culture of open criticism

oh yeah that sounds kinda good

and allow its current and former employees to raise risk-related concerns about its technologies to the public,

oh.

That the company will not retaliate against current and former employees who publicly share risk-related confidential information after other processes have failed.

and feel there are a number of nonracial issues that have since become much more important than the things WNs fixate on

like staying out of jail? and making profit off loons? at least, I'm guessing those are the priorities

whenever I hear the "everything is sexual harassment now" from some of these fuckers I think of the joke:

"what's wrong?," asks the doctor.

"something bad - everything hurts" says the patient

"show me"

the patient touches their finger against their thigh, their foot, their neck, and their forehead - evidently wincing with every time

"...you have a broken finger" says the doctor

“with a device he purchased to help her out” is such an extremely load bearing sentence in there

The whole goddamn example is batshit, but that one really did it for me

It continues to amaze me these people are real
