Bloomberg reported OpenAI is working with Anthropic and Google on AI safety, as commentators including The Intercept argued the doomsaying distracts from existing AI harms, and analysts asked whether the industry's caution is genuine or financially driven.
“Talk of existential risk is a highly convenient way to not address the already known harms produced by AI technologies overseen by fascist billionaires like Musk and Palantir CEO Alex Karp.”

Why would three multibillionaire tech CEOs all come together to agree that the technologies their companies are developing might be too dangerous? One thing is clear: Talk of existential risk is a highly convenient way to not address the already known harms produced by AI technologies overseen by fascist billionaires like Musk and Palantir CEO…

There's speculation that the openAI/Anthropic security woes and call for regulation is an attempt at making using free LLM models, which also happen to be less resource intensive, more difficult. Comment from a related Ars Technica article

> also lol at "mr. loves gods" One of the ways I've been coping with the insanity of this is by viewing the AI industry as if it was the writing of a Hideo Kojima game. On one hand you have a company named after openness hiding all their details lead by someone named alternative to man. On another you have a company named after humanity with a…

It's not a matter of opinion. The article you're commenting on links to his letter, where he says that quote right after talking about the hugging face hack My second concern is the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident (OAI-HF), in which a swarm of agents essentially acted as a fanatically devoted collective, conducting cybersecurity attacks on targets…

It couldn't be that the same $20 y'all keep passing around is wearing out, huh? AI leaders want to hit the brakes after years of reckless speed https:// arstechnica.com/ai/2026/09/ai- leaders-want-to-hit-the-brakes-after-years-of-reckless-speed/ # AI # Regulation # Development # Tech

“I want to be clear that I do not think that Anthropic Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei's call to slow down AI development to prevent misaligned rogue AI is insincere or intended as marketing hype. But I do think that it is great marketing.” -Matt Levine —

Also, in a similar vein, I was replaying Dead Space, and seeing ALTMAN BE PRAISED throughout the game felt unintentionally on the nose.

Of everything. I used to make ads and years ago when they put out the AI ads I was like hey I could call my voice and put out way better ones so what are they even saving money on? They’re lowering themselves their standards to amateur level. I still think that. And yeah, security work as well! I was actually freelance to do security animation at…

I don't think those who respond that way are setting a fair standard.

This is not purely the wealth class. Viruses and malware have existed for a long time. Worms have infected tons of computers through small programs, through forums, facebook, etc. for decades. They are powerful because they are self-replicating and can’t be remotely shut off. Autonomous agents were not built by the wealth class. A big part of the…

fair enough! (also lol at "mr. loves gods")

When tech CEOs read about sci-fi dystopias they aren’t looking at them from the perspective of the everyman but on how the elite are doing compared to everyone else. It’s not even about absolute well being but what future makes them feel strong and powerful and better than everyone else. Then what seems like a terrible idea to 99% of us might seem…

I can’t even explain how maddening this stupid prediction or reality is. I shut down my medical practice this year (to be ready to leave if needed as one of my kids is in a targeted group). Many of my friends and family are scientists, doctors and engineers. The scientists and doctors are all making plans to leave. The educated people who I know…

I contracted with Microsoft on one of their own internal platforms during the whole Copilot fiasco and used to audit their RLHF data. I can't speak to other companies, but around 90% of what crossed my screen was unusable garbage. Bill Gates getting on TV and pretending his AI is an existential threat is CRAZY work. The last time I worked on that…

k3 at running at q8 is close to fable in capability. i use it as a comparison for VRAM usage and cost to run. no, i don't think k3 will be the model that hacks the world, i don't think it is capable. never the less it has shown to be capable of find and using 0 day vuls. the full k3 FP16 would cost you 5.6TB vram. ~$300/hour. that is what we…

Slowdown beause they cannot make done the promises that they did to get the money that they have? Very convenient like the Claude engineer that was saying all this about "the AI will end the world in 1 decade" with one account created 1 week before and now going to work to the company that claude hired for the ethic part....All is very patetic and…

Can't help but take this, at least partly, as the money is getting tighter and they need legimate reasons to slow down spending without completely spooking the market into an AI winter. They are forcing each other into the ground while cheaper more affordable open weight models thrive off their work via distillation while watching them dig, and…

What it entails is a massive collusion so that they can control the market. All the AI labs in the us are being sued because they are colluding to agree on a slowdown to further their BS that only they can control this technology: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/s/aFwIpxLXPC This is what you’re going to get from them, fear, because it’s the…

Yes, imagine all those 30-60 years just switching on a dime to a trade like carpentry, plumbing or electrical work with zero experience and years upon years of training required before you can become a master at your trade. Who has bills to pay in the meantime? And thats if your body can still handle it and you dont have things like arthritis or…
-
The part that bothers me isn't even the GDP number, it's how casually they talk about people "switching" careers. Becoming a nurse or electrician takes years of training, money and starting over. productivity gains mean very little if the people losing jobs don't actually benefit from them.
-
All they want is permission to collude on model limits so they can pull profits without competing on the latest model for a bit. All the AI danger bullshit and fear mongering they are putting out right now is simply so they can break anti collusion paws openly to pull profits.

I mean, if this problem is true. Isn’t the easy solution requiring some type of biometric to even engage with social media? This argument leads to more massive surveillance. I’m always suspect of these apocalyptic claims. Humanity always seems to find a way out..

It's the Musk Method, just tell lots of lies about a product, repeat them but extend the deadline, wait a while, come up with the next revolutionary idea to lie about... Not to be confused with the Trump Tactic, that involves not having any ideas, just lies.
