Instead of embracing this gift of open-source, they desperately cling to the old monopolies.
Fuck them. AI is in the people’s hands now. OpenAI is old tech now.
Why should mega-wealthy investors pour billions of dollars into this shitty old technology that doesn’t turn a profit?
The great firewall isn’t designed to protect those inside from the outside. It is designed to isolate those inside from getting outside. It’s like saying a prison wall is there to protect the prisoners from invaders. Sure in Fallout they worked out to be useful for that, but that isnt what it was built for and would have needed modifications like turning the barbed wire outwards to make it work for that purpose better.
I hope not. Censorship is never going to work.
more about locking out competition… when people talk about ‘free market capitalism’ this is what they mean.
Yep, if Silicon Valley can’t compete, they’ll simply rig the game.
Hmm, I was looking at it as more of an iron curtain kind of thing. Heritage foundation doesn’t want outside information getting in so they told trump, trump told his tech stooges to publicly ask for a “ai firewall” and boom, no more outside information.
the deepseek r1 release shook the tech world, nvidia and other tech stocks lost upwards of a trillion dollars in market cap in the last week… i think the outside information is the horse-shape of the trojan-horse to convince us that open source ai is a threat to anything but tech bros’ bottom lines.
Alright, that’s fair I hadn’t thought of it that way because I want it to happen, and I want it to crush these tech companies.
The citizens need them against the companies for AI really but it’s always “get used to it” and it’s all capitalism and stuff.
