i’m gonna be straight up, we’re at the point where we’ve so thoroughly proven that debate is ineffectual at best in terms of convincing shitheads of fucking anything that, if you do so now, you’re basically just a fucking ally to them

don’t fucking platform nazis. don’t give them the time of day. block them, maybe hurt their feelings too, but just block them.

you need to understand that social ostracization actually fucking works in terms of dissuading behavior. it may not change a person, but it’ll change what they do. you trying to epicly own them with facts and logic achieves less than nothing—it gives them exactly what they want: attention

"Balaji’s death comes three months after he publicly accused OpenAI of violating U.S. copyright law while developing ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence program that has become a moneymaking sensation used by hundreds of millions of people across the world.

Its public release in late 2022 spurred a torrent of lawsuits against OpenAI from authors, computer programmers and journalists, who say the company illegally stole their copyrighted material to train its program and elevate its value past $150 billion.

The Mercury News and seven sister news outlets are among several newspapers, including the New York Times, to sue OpenAI in the past year.

In an interview with the New York Times published Oct. 23, Balaji argued OpenAI was harming businesses and entrepreneurs whose data were used to train ChatGPT.

“If you believe what I believe, you have to just leave the company,” he told the outlet, adding that “this is not a sustainable model for the internet ecosystem as a whole.”

Balaji grew up in Cupertino before attending UC Berkeley to study computer science. It was then he became a believer in the potential benefits that artificial intelligence could offer society, including its ability to cure diseases and stop aging, the Times reported. “I thought we could invent some kind of scientist that could help solve them,” he told the newspaper.

But his outlook began to sour in 2022, two years after joining OpenAI as a researcher. He grew particularly concerned about his assignment of gathering data from the internet for the company’s GPT-4 program, which analyzed text from nearly the entire internet to train its artificial intelligence program, the news outlet reported.

The practice, he told the Times, ran afoul of the country’s “fair use” laws governing how people can use previously published work. In late October, he posted an analysis on his personal website arguing that point.

No known factors “seem to weigh in favor of ChatGPT being a fair use of its training data,” Balaji wrote. “That being said, none of the arguments here are fundamentally specific to ChatGPT either, and similar arguments could be made for many generative AI products in a wide variety of domains.”

Reached by this news agency, Balaji’s mother requested privacy while grieving the death of her son.

In a Nov. 18 letter filed in federal court, attorneys for The New York Times named Balaji as someone who had “unique and relevant documents” that would support their case against OpenAI. He was among at least 12 people — many of them past or present OpenAI employees — the newspaper had named in court filings as having material helpful to their case, ahead of depositions."

Can Biden or Harris speak to this?

Seems calling Nazis a Nazi is unpopular with the journalists and headline writers.

Make them quote you. Call them Nazis.

Fascism is here. Start punching Nazis.

Christmas is over, people celebrate by exchanging gifts and expressing their love for each other. As for me, my share on this day was only a little donation. I do not want this money for outings or entertainment, but for my basic needs such as personal hygiene items, food and drink just to survive.

I thank you all, especially those who have donated to me before, but today I ask you a small request to consider for a few seconds to donate to me again.

My goal is to raise 40,000 before the end of the year, and only four days are left to achieve that. Please, my dear brothers, do not ignore my request. Every contribution, no matter how small, means a lot to me and my family.
