deception, cavalier attitude towards safety, openness to political corruption, to name three reasons. see my substack for lots of background.

I am seeing a lot of calls to boycott OpenAI — and I support them.

It’s one thing for the government to reject @AnthropicAI’s terms—- and entirely another to banish them permanently (and, absurdly and punitively declare them a supply chain risk) in favor of someone else who took pretty similar terms and happened to have given more campaign contributions.

I will never not be angry at the way tech bros have told us that the danger is apocalyptic superintelligence when it was always obvious that the reason to worry is that we would put dumb AI in really stupid places.

Embedding unreliable AI deep into the source code of the military without human oversight is the single stupidest thing we could do as a species.
And that is *exactly* what the United States is about to do.

America, and probably the world, stands on a precipice.
Call you Congresspeople, right now.
The urgent plea of @garymarcus.bsky.social demands rapid action: the US Military, in the hands of fascists, seeks to bend Anthropic to the knee in the aims of incorporating AI into military weaponry. Gary asks us to call our political representatives right now. I just did. Now it's your turn.

Marilyn (Molly) Marcus, 1942-2026
Some things I learned — and still hope to learn — from my mother
open.substack.com/pub/garymarc...
I don't normally share the news of people's loved ones passing. I have yet to become comfortable with how social media handles this. But this essay by @garymarcus.bsky.social in honor of his mother is too wonderful not to share widely.

Great reference from @garymarcus.bsky.social to this comprehensive paper.

Besides many other important finding, this was pretty clear:

Some disconcerting facts about AI and banking that may have profound consequences
Disturbing new numbers
@garymarcus.bsky.social:
I have a hard time seeing how this doesn’t end badly. A recession, maybe worse.

KI-Kritiker Gary Marcus: Warum die Technologie an ihre Grenzen stößt
Der Hype um KI ist gigantisch, doch die Technologie hat massive Schwächen. Ein Gespräch mit Gary Marcus über die drohende Finanzblase.
Der Neurowissenschaftler und #KI- Unternehmer @garymarcus.bsky.social warnt seit Jahren, dass der Boom der »Künstlichen Intelligenz« auf einem Missverständnis beruht. Jetzt häufen sich auffällig die Stimmen, die auf seine Linie einschwenken: archive.is/3PFlk #Interview

Is the Great AI meltdown imminent? A huge shift from Nvidia doesn’t bode well for OpenAI or Generative AI maximalism:

What will A.I's impact be on scientific research?
Melanie Mitchell Computer scientist
“I believe this impact will not be as rapid as many think. A.I. systems still can't do things humans are essential for, like asking the right questions, planning experiments and entire scientific programs, and understanding data in different contexts.”
Gary Marcus Cognitive scientist
“People are greatly confused about large language models, attributing a humanlike intelligence to mimicry machines that turn out to be superficial and unreliable.
Intelligence is about reasoning flexibly in face of the unknown, and large language models continue to struggle mightily with that.”
Helen Toner A.I. policy researcher
“I expect we'll have A.I. systems that can clearly contribute at the cutting edge of multiple scientific fields, but that you still wouldn't trust with planning summer camps for your kid.”
@melaniemitchell.bsky.social @garymarcus.bsky.social @hlntnr.bsky.social on where AI won’t be taking science (“asking the right Qs, planning experiments &entire sci programs,&understanding data in diff contexts”), intelligence (“reasoning flexibility in the face of the unknown”) &summercamp madness🧪

Hehe, quoting @garymarcus.bsky.social "if you care about the security of your device or the privacy of your data, don’t use OpenClaw. Period."
(Bonus : if your friend has OpenClaw installed, don’t use their machine. A. Don’t catch a CTD — chatbot transmitted disease)

OpenClaw (a.k.a. Moltbot) is everywhere all at once, and a disaster waiting to happen
Not everything that is interesting is a good idea.
OpenClaw (aka Moltbot) may have gone completely viral, but it is also a disaster waiting to happen.
A PSA for why you should steer clear.
