Sam Altman is an insult to Life itself.

Here's another article by @brianmerchant : bloodinthemachine.com/p/openai…
"AI giants are indeed eating away at the livelihoods and dignity of working artists, and this devouring, appropriating, and automation of the production of art, of culture, at a scale truly never seen before, should not be underestimated as a menace"

OpenAI's Studio Ghibli meme factory is an insult to art itself

Sam Altman is promoting his new image generator by appropriating the work of one of the greatest living animators—who is "disgusted" by AI.

^{Brian Merchant (Blood in the Machine)}

#OpenAI sta usando meme in stile Studio Ghibli come campagna promozionale ad hoc per il suo nuovo generatore di immagini — nonostante il notorio disprezzo di Hayao Miyazaki, fondatore di #Ghibli, per l’#IA. Persino Sam Altman ha trasformato il suo avatar su X in un ritratto “ghiblificato”.

bloodinthemachine.com/p/openai…

Sminuire #Miyazaki è parte del gioco: è un’ulteriore prova di aver vinto, di poter usare, appropriarsi e mercificare l’arte a loro piacimento, senza rispetto per autori o contesti.

Do we really want to criminalize a large part of the population while tech companies do the same? In the end, is the only difference that #PirateBay was not a multimillion corporation?

OpenAI ofrecerá sus modelos IA al Gobierno de EE.UU. para garantizar la seguridad nuclear - EFE

La tecnológica OpenAI anunció que usarán sus últimos modelos de inteligencia artificial para tareas de seguridad de armas nucleares.

Real match up is DeepSeek vs Sky-T1. Forget #OpenAI.

DeepSeek spent millions either cloning existing AIs or training their own. The resulting AI is big and can't run on consumer hardware with decent quality (ie: It's a pretty bad coder). But it's otherwise similar to OpenAI's o1.

Meanwhile a lab at Berkeley just open sourced their model and all training data. It only costs $450 to reproduce the Berkely team's novel training approach 🤯

That's not all

#SkyT1 #DeepSeek

This is the most likely reality according to my AI friends.

It's very cheap to clone any existing chatbot by simply using it to generate training data.

Evidently if you ask DeepSeek what AI it is... it typically says its one of the other top AIs' which @rekcahdam tells me is normally a sign of model cloning.

Anyways, this is all beside the point, DeepSeek isn't the most interesting AI project rn . . .

2️⃣ Apropos Waffen: #OpenAI, die Firma hinter #ChatGPT, hatte bis vor kurzem hehre Grundsätze: Ihre KI-Modelle dürften nicht für Waffenentwicklung oder das Militär bzw. Kriegsführung eingesetzt. Das hat sich aber im letzten Jahr stark verändert. So kündigte OpenAI letzte Woche eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem KI-Drohnen- und -Raketen-Hersteller #Anduril an, mit dem Ziel, Militärinstallationen vor Angriffen zu schützen, was auch immer das heissen mag.

"Beggars can't be choosers"

OpenAI’s new defense contract completes its military pivot

A new partnership with Anduril, announced today, will deploy AI on the battlefield. It represents an overhaul of the company’s position in just a year.
