alt Hacker NewsAnthropic/Dario getting a lot of hate in this thread, but the argument he makes is rational if you believe for one second that AI is important to national security and that it can, or will soon be incredibly dangerous is misused. People pointing out that this position benefits his company might be overly reductionist in how they think the world works. I believe Dario and Anthropic about their belief that AI safety is paramount because they put serious dollars behind research to improve safety/alignment, not just lip service for others. Those resources could get spent elsewhere but do not. Certainly it doesn't at OpenAI to that degree.

Dario is a fascist who wholeheartedly believes Yankee exceptionalism and its divine right to brutalize anyone in order to achieve its goals. Anthropic's models have helped bomb innocents over and over and over again, and will continue to do so.
If you think he gives half a shit about safety you've had a dozen lobotomies too many and should reconsider every decision you've ever made.
Don't be so naive. He only wants a monopoly and a massive IPO.
