This is the low quality reddit-style garbage that gets upvoted on HN these days?

What are we supposed to talk about in this thread exactly? The developers of this model are evil. Are we supposed to just write dry comments about benchmarks while OpenAI condones their models being deployed for autonomously killing people?

Yes I'm sure it makes a very nice bicycle SVG. I will be sure to ask the OpenAI killbots for a copy when they arrive at my house.

While low quality, it is extremely important, potentially historically significant too.

If it is actually that important, then maybe more effort should be made so it isn't "low quality." Cannot be very important to them if they're disinterested in presenting an intellectually compelling argument about it.

PS - If you think I am not sympathetic to what they're raising, you're very much mistake. But they're not winning anyone new over their side with this flamebait.

Sometimes you throw a brick through a window, not because it's an intellectual thing to do, but because of the hundred people who'll maybe smash the next hundred windows after you do yours.

and then, because any supportive response to all that window smashing is informative as collective intelligence...

and then, bc that all validates that the order that all these clever rules were upholding is illegitimate.

It's how a very stupid thing stands in for a million smart and well-understood things that everyone is also trying to say.

You can say your piece about how you don't like OpenAI working with the US military on lethal AI without making Reddit style quips.

The HN of old is no more unfortunately. Things get up or down voted based purely on political alignment.

As programmers become intelligently irrelevant in the whole picture, you would see more posts like this

"This account belongs to a lazy person" true

I was just reading the model card...

True and simply vote it down.

mycall would also be to do the same

Noticeably yes much more than usual. It’s quite bad. I need to start blocking accounts.
