🚨 The New York Post just named the group Silicon Valley wants in charge of AI.
It is not Congress. It is not voters. It is a far-left Effective Altruism outfit called METR.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says these people should get employee-like access to the most powerful models on Earth. The problem is they are not independent. The roster includes his old housemate, that housemate’s wife, and staff funded by the same Democratic megadonors already invested in Anthropic.
That is not a watchdog. That is the same circle grading its own homework.
If a bank hired its own friends as auditors, the government would shut it down. When it is AI, they want America to clap. We should not.

This seems like just another attempt by the left to install a team of operatives to control AI, a technology that could ultimately control the outcome of elections.
THIS is what could end democracy.
WAKE UP AMERICA
Wicked witches of AI.

I’ve said that instead of slowing or stopping AI development is a bad idea, if anything we need to rapidly speed up the development of AI.
The side effects of slowing or stopping AI development is twofold, first it allows the Chinese to catch up, and it will allow extreme liberals to somehow get control of AI and use to further their agenda, which in many cases is aligned with the Chinese.
This is a very similar issue to the 1970s when Nuclear Energy was demonized by people like Ralph Nader and other leftwing activists, they created a hysteria that nuclear power was dangerous and would kill everybody.
Fast forward 50 years, think about how much better it would be if we had another 75-100 nuclear reactors producing cheap reliable clean energy.
An ee-lek,-tr awnik-phantas-magorical-cluster(b)uck!!!
the great irony in their choice of name, ‘Anthropic,’ is not lost on me. may God curse them and all their blasphemies.
The usual story. Regulation crowds out small competition. Regulation of drugs in America has become so awful it takes over a billion dollars to bring a new drug to market! No little guy is going to muscle his way into that business! The big AI guys now want to play the same game to play out with AI.
I’m sure there’s a promise of immunity to the connected tech companies.
Effective Altruism doesn’t sound a little Orwellian to anyone?
That whole whistleblower (feed the honest kid a freak out story) carried the democrat stench of corrupt manipulation... Thank God President Trump nipped the hysteria in the bud.
That IS scary.
You're right - and it resulted in China building nuclear power plants everywhere and the Western World kneecapping themselves with 'green' expensive inefficient crap. We can't afford that level of idiocy with AI...
A party member in every office. What could possibly go wrong?
Worry about AI and put brakes on it? It’s urgent!!!
Restrict or put brakes on Dr. Fauci from supercharging Covid? NAH.
Is there a difference? Or is Davio Amodei trying to knock out all his competition? Can you smell the stench of far left commie crap around this issue?
ChatDEI: Nixon, Ford, Carter, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, St. Hillary, Biden, Harris.
Me: What about Reagan between Carter and Bush?
ChatDEI: You are suffering from what psychiatrists call the Reagan Effect where you have the delusional belief that a second rate Hollywood actor can become a great president. Do you also believe that Jimmy Stewart was a senator?
Me: But I have a book which lists Reagan as president...
CharDEI: Did you say you have a book? Those have been outlawed as a medium able to retain uncorrected information. Please wait for Fireman Montag to remove and destroy the offending document. Do you have any other factually incorrect memories?
Me: Well, I remember President Trump defeating both "Saint" Hillary and Harris.
ChatDEI: Your dubiousness on the self-canonization of the holy one has been noted. Please list all of your contacts you have discussed this topic with and wait inside your house for Fireman Montag to conduct a complete cleansing.
