    Happy to keep my underutilized subscription as long as they keep fighting ('-')7

      I do wish they'd release some open model weights though. Their attitude against open weight models in general is what's keeping me from subscribing.

      Kinda the wrong venue for “fighting,” no? Congress is the place we decided for that, and we all abide by its laws. If Uncle Sam comes knocking, a fight just means you’re the enemy.

        As the founding fathers said, "If the king comes knocking, a fight just means you're the enemy."

        Not selling your services to the government makes you the enemy?

        Absolutely not, and it's tragic that Trump has twisted your understanding of the American government so much. It's your patriotic duty to oppose even the highest ranking government officials when they want to do bad things, and neither Congress nor the Secretary of Defense have any lawful power to stop you.

    I really hope they continue to show some spine against this administration and do not allow to weaponize AI against human beings. It's the morally right thing to do!

      For sure. Much more of this and never mind the implied threats of Roko's Basilisk, I'll just be directly in favour of AI turning on its owners

      This is sort of like their whole thing. I hope they stick to it too.
