Fighting ‘Woke AI,’ Musk Recruits Team to Develop OpenAI Rival

OK let me get this straight.

Musk criticizes the content safeguards GPT3 (and probably GPT4 too), use as woke, and therefore wants to build an alternative, which I am supposed to believe will not use fewer content safeguards. It’s gonna be that anti-woke thing that magically turns out to not be bigoted that we keep being promised.

Anti-woke shit ends up at bigotry every Goddamn time, and yet I am supposed to pretend these are people of goodwill bla, bla, bla.

If the US wasn't a superpower, I'm pretty sure we'd all be in talks to discuss banning American media along with TikTok. The US culture war is going to slowly poison the rest of western society and before long every country is going to be descending into fascism while yelling about woke mind viruses or some other made up nonsense. https://www.theinformation.com/articles/fighting-woke-ai-musk-recruits-team-to-develop-openai-rival

OK federated hive mind, I need someone to explain the concept of declaring alternate drinking days for St. Patrick's Day because apparently this has been declared which means after our dinner order was cancelled twice and we opted for pizza the only thing they had left was large stuffed crust. I don't remember this being a thing when I was in college but then again we drank every weekend.

A good new week everybody, just waiting on some dinner. We're hoping it gets here soon because both of us are hungry and the first time we ordered it was cancelled and refunded so we tried again. Gathering with John's brother and his wife didn't happen today, but I'm sure we'll manage it at some point when everybody's not busy putting out fires.
