It's not that no one is outraged, it's that we like to keep the outrage limited to the threads that are about the outrage. I'd rather not see HN devolve into a place where every discussion inevitably pivots to the horrific world event du jour.

The discussion was about the safety of AI and pausing AGI/AI out of fear of it going rogue or killing people. Lavender is actually doing that as a state sponsored military AI.

The technology is now out in the world and all AI/LLMS can be used in the general world community.

I would assume Palintir has offerings to do this Weapons-based AI killing people. Are there humans in the loop?

We are not allowed to critique Israel or else we will be called anti-semetic and get cancelled. A proverbial third rail if you will.

I must run in very different circles because in my social sphere even my Jewish friends are uncomfortable saying anything supporting Israel. Where is this rabidly pro-Israel mob?
