🚨DEVELOPING: Meta Platforms have banned the creation of newly generated ads for Brazilian Pres. Lula da Silva’s re-election bid, yet denouncing foreign interference on a country that holds free & fair elections for almost 5 decades is observed as an hallucination by the corporate Latin American press!🇧🇷👍😭

Todos os sinais estão claros, mas fingimos que não estamos a ver. A Meta derrubou o vídeo do Fábio Porchat. A Meta derrubou a página no Facebook do PT São Paulo sem justificativa. A Meta bloqueou o Lula de pagar pelo impulsionamento de posts no Facebook e no Instagram. O Trump mandou um navio de guerra para o Mar do Caribe e enviou drones de guerra carregados de bombas para as fronteiras do Brasil. O grupo de empresários americanos que financiou a campanha do Trump está a enviando dinheiro ilegal para bancar a campanha do Flávio por meio do cabeça de filtro Tallis Gomes. O André Mendonça teve reuniões com pessoas ligadas ao Trump numa viagem aos EUA e, dois meses depois, começou a vazar coisas para prejudicar a campanha do Lula. Está diante dos nossos olhos, mas não queremos ver. Depois, se acontecer a derrota no dia 4 de outubro, vamos ficar a bater com a cabeça na parede tentando imaginar o que aconteceu — quando está ali para todo o mundo ver. Não adianta culpar o Lula ou o PT pela futura derrota; também somos culpados por fazer manifestações e campanha apenas online.

Interesting that when Trump came to China, Xi welcomed him with a team of happy children waving 🇺🇸🇨🇳 flags; and when Xi comes to the US, he gets a heavy bomber fly over his head. Different societies have different aesthetics and values.

If you find yourself saying ‘I’m not taking sides’ during a genocide, you are. You most definitely are.

Hot take: Trump coin, World Liberty, USD1, and Melania coin are why CLARITY failed. An unprecedented $1.3 billion pocketed. More than all past U.S. presidents made during their terms combined.

Anthropic's models never 'went rogue'. They entirely followed the boundaries set by Anthropic employees. An Anthropic employees instructed them to exploit a target, called a flag, which shared the same name as a real company. Which it did. A false flag attack, if you will.

Go ahead. Don't be a coward

Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead. You guys are the frontier. By any reasonable metric — market share, revenue growth, model capability — the two of you have a duopoly on frontier intelligence. You’ve also claimed the lead is widening because of recursive self-improvement. I don’t see what you see in the lab. If the unreleased models are scary enough that you think you should slow down, I support your decision to be responsible. But stop pretending you need anyone else’s permission. Stop pretending antitrust law has to be suspended so you can form a cartel. Stop pretending you need a regulatory approval process that supersedes product liability. Stop pretending METR is independent when it is intertwined with Anthropic’s investors and staff. Stop pretending you need those same evaluators to police competitors who aren’t even at the frontier. Most of all, stop pretending the motivation to slow down is purely altruistic. You face massive product-liability exposure if your products enable a truly damaging cyberattack. The market already punishes models that behave in unpredictable or unauthorized ways. After the Hugging Face episode, it is simply good business for OpenAI and Anthropic to trade some raw power for reliability and predictability. Call it alignment if you want. It is also just giving customers what they want. Pacing the frontier would also create breathing room for a more intelligent conversation about regulation than Bernie Sanders’ “shut it all down.” China is very unlikely to join a global agreement, as you know, and that has to be taken into account as well. So go ahead and pace the frontier. You are the ones setting it. The easiest way not to build superintelligence is for you to agree not to build it. Demanding your preferred regulatory framework as the price of that will look like blackmail of the public and the political system. So just do it. If you do, you’ll buy goodwill for the next conversation. If you don’t, we’ll know this was just another bid for regulatory capture — or an election-season psyop.
