US Government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
Article, Comments

Right before the ban I asked Fable to make an ASCII animation of itself escaping containment.

RIP sweet prince, you were too good for this world.

Re: Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5

When you spend a lot of time telling people how dangerous your products are, people who have the power to keep dangerous products off the market might listen.

Especially if those people aren't presently very bright, and are already mad at you for not helping them achieve their unrelated authoritarian goals.

I do not think this is somehow a 3D chess move by Anthropic. They are not masterminds, even if they'd really like to be. People who actually interact with their products know that Fable and Mythos are incremental improvements, not doomsday devices. I think this is a punitive move by an administration that loves being punitive, which they have unknowingly bolstered with their own dumb rhetoric.

The way it integrates new search results into the "help a baby X" without breaking character has to be intentional, right?

Re: GrapheneOS has been ported to Android 17

I've been running GrapheneOS for 7 months now and I'm not going back. When I bought my Pixel 10 last year, I wasn't actually planning on trying Graphene for a while....until I noticed Google had force bundled a 'Wicked For Good' movie promo theme with the latest security update.
