- Comment on California startup to demonstrate space weapon on its own dime 1 week ago:
Multiple countries have had the ability to put tons of weapons in space for a half century (and we know there are/were a few up there), so I don’t agree with you here - once we abandon our treaties, one country putting arms in space will inevitably lead to all countries putting arms in space “for defense”.

Didn’t Elon breathlessly explain how the plan was to have Grok rewrite and expand on the current corpus of knowledge so that the next Grok could be trained on that “superior” dataset, which would forever rid it of the wokeness?

- Comment on AI industry horrified to face largest copyright class action ever certified 2 months ago:
Ok reading a little more the class has been certified but it hasn’t gone to trial, so there’s still a possibility of a closed-door settlement of some sort, though given the number of parties involved that seems unlikely. Maybe I’m just being optimistic. But if it goes to trial and makes it to judgement there will either have to be cases where using copyrighted materials to train AI (which seriously how is that not for generating derivative works) is found to be ok, or copyright will be held sacrosanct and the whole gen AI industry will have to pay… something. Punitive damages would make the industry cease to exist overnight, and I’d bet most publishers would prefer a check instead.

It has to set some precedent though. Either there are valid reasons to violate copyright are there aren’t.
