Open source software is free to download. But the infrastructure behind it is not. Most Open Source projects are funded through a fragile mix of donations and goodwill. Open Source infrastructure deserves a business model! dri.es/open-source-...
l keep saying this and AI types just ignore it:
Cognitive neuroscience is a field that exists and has an ongoing body of research. We haven't "solved" consciousness, but we aren't totally in the dark either. Neurons aren't just binary switches, and their networks aren't running programs.
He must also never lived around a bunch of Amish people either.
“Horses became a lot more free” uhhhhhhhh what?
The motto of the modern tech industry is "You can just do things to people"
They ended up disbanding Shield because it was infiltrated top to bottom by Hydra so this lines up
Moskowitz: "Let me congratulate the former Homeland Security Secretary on her appointment to be the Shield of Americas, which I'm pretty sure the president came up with when he watched the last Avengers movie"
Can we jettison tech billionaires straight towards the Sun?
Shush, you’re giving them ideas! (Tbh, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone hollowed out by AI-driven delusions out there is going to seriously try to popularize such a thing)
Lol.
We live in Peter Steinberger Stupid World,™️ the stupidest, least sensical of all worlds.
“as part of its moves to handle a cash crunch from a massive AI data center expansion”
Hardly surprising this is happening.

I hope it gets swallowed by a sinkhole.
never look at your phone when you get up to take a leak. someone might have started an idiot war
No one should be using ChatGPT or partnering with OpenAI for anything.
Look forward to reading this.
We do need to have a conversation about what we want the world to look like; right now I think our oligarchs want to strip it for scrap and whatever comes after humans.
But the rest of us should get a say. We don’t need billionaires.
Don’t forget that Armageddon believer Peter Thiel is deeply invested in Anthropic and also is JD Vance’s mentor and personal billionaire. Also two weeks ago Anthropic’s ethics guru resigned. His parting words were “humanity is in peril.” So tho Anthropic has a line, but ai is not safe or woke.
Everybody is (understandably) very excited that Anthropic isn't selling their AI for Hegseth to use to automate his war crimes. But I would gently suggest that we not accept setting the bar quite so low. www.anildash.com/2026/02/27/a...
The people riding Anthropic's dick have conveniently forgotten Bezos during Trump's first term vs now and Google's Don't Be Evil.
There's no excuse for ignorance here. This is the corporate oligarchy setting up for post-Trump. The menu had not changed. It doesn't until WE put THEM on it.
Glad Anthropic stood up against the regime for now!
But seeing so many politicians and media folk getting ahead of themselves claiming Anthropic as overall good and responsible is concerning 😭
They knowingly stole the works of almost every creative, to power their models per court documents.
This afternoon the president is crashing out over the Supreme Court's tariff ruling and Anthropic while the defense secretary feuds with universities and the scouts... glad everyone involved in the potentially imminent war with Iran is in a good mindset.
my governments calling anthropic a radical left woke company because it had exactly TWO conditions of not being used for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons
Now is when we will find out whether the Antitrust Division has been spared the corruption that has infected the rest of the administration. They were talking about challenging a Netflix-Warner; will they challenge the much more dangerous Paramount buy, or will Trump block any real review?
One family is about to control CBS, CNN, HBO, and TikTok. They’ll buy Warner Brothers with $24 billion from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. To win over Trump, they canceled Colbert, blocked a 60 Minutes CECOT investigation, and blocked Talarico. Much more will follow. Block this rotten deal.
Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.

Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.
if nobody does anything to stop this, I predict an american Chernobyl within 2 years.
excited to hear tech companies will now be allowed to build their own power plants for their data centers. i am sure the makers of "the app that tells kids to kill themselves" will responsibly operate coal plants
