Wasn't there a recent OAI dev day in which they had some users come on stage and discuss how helpful ChatGPT was in parsing diagnoses from different doctors?

I guess the legal risks were large enough to outweigh this

I'd wager it's probably more that there's an identifiable customer and specific product to be sold. Doctors, hospitals, EHR companies and insurers all are very interested in paying for a validated version of this thing.

Or simple threats of lawsuits directly/indirectly, theres a lot of money at stake here in the end

But validation is theoretically impossible.

Do I want to buy this, an M1 or an M4?

M1 is expected to stop getting MacOS updates sooner. There have been rumours of an upcoming entry-level MacBook with M1-class performance that wouldn't have that problem.

Personally, I'm looking forward to M1 MacBook Pros dropping in price so I could nab one for cheap for running Asahi Linux.

How can there be backlash against something that has yet to take off?

I got a similar vibe from the “controversy” over that Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ad. Not a single human I talked to about it, left or right, gave anything approaching two craps about it.

It’s almost as if there are companies out there now selling outrage-as-a-service because outrage drives engagement and thus, attention market share, ideally translating into sales. Who knows if that last assumption has any merit though.

It was mostly children. Every child is on the internet and uses the same social medias adults use.

Man, my startup does this but exclusively for enterprises, where it actually makes sense

Yet another category of startups killed by an incumbent

"The factory must grow"

How many packages now have been compromised over the past couple of weeks? The velocity of these attacks are insane. Part of me believes state actors must be involved at this point.

In any case, does anyone have an exhaustive list of all recently compromised npm packages + versions across the recent attacks? We need to do an exhaustive scan after this news...

> Part of me believes state actors must be involved at this point.

Its less a technical but rather a moral hurdle. Its probably a bunch of teenagers behind it like how it was with the Mirai Botnet.

I found the Watchmen HBO series alternate universe version of Redford as “liberal version of president Ronald Reagan” a fascinating thought experiment

Not just that, but the wholly plausible concept of "Redfordations" - a fictional U.S. law establishing reparations for descendants of racial injustices in the form of lifetime tax exemptions - seemed very on-brand for the man and his legacy.
