Privilege isn't an issue with Claude (generally).

Maintaining privilege depends on taking steps to ensure the continued confidentiality of the data - put a lock on your file cabinet, sign an agreement with the vendor where they promise not to look at or use the data for their own purpose.

Even if hacker news thinks that agreement isn't ironclad doesn't mean privilege is or should be destroyed. It's more about whether you limit the distribution of the data in a reasonable way. Today, zdr remains reasonable.

As a lawyer who vibe codes using Claude code all of the time and believes it's the highest value case... I'm going to disagree with this suggestion.

If she never uses ai at work at all, start with something dead simple: -do research with it -put a large corpus of documents into LLM context and ask questions of it

That's probably where I'd start.

Nice. You make it?

Nice post!

Is a "race for publication" any different from "healthy competition"?

I guess not quite in how you're framing it, because you take issue with the tool stealing intelligent from the user of the tool.

But how do we confirm these advances depended on data leakage?

Cool idea. Where would I get one?

Some good points here except:

It is outrageous to say an early stage company giving inaccurate diagnostics "is like" giving patients incompatible blood transfusions.

10-15% of people who get the wrong blood die. People who get inaccurate diagnostics get scared.

Very different and this undermines the credibility of your otherwise valid point.

Its certainly worth considering...

Lol this was crazy I hadn't heard this before

I'd be curious to see whether these models can create new forms of unbreakable encryption themselves!

Sounds cool. Needs network effects of lots of highly rated stores to succeed, I think.

What evidence shows he wanted this? Why would he play the victim internally?

both can be true:

-the US gov't is stupid and overly aggressive and absurd

-Anthropic for reasons no one can quite conceive keeps describing every product release of theirs as an imminent threat to civilization (and simultaneously keeps pushing the market forward as fast as they possibly can).

I'm sympathetic with this sentiment but surely it's pretty rare the law actually gets involved? Our kids play outside a lot and no cops have ever raised an eyebrow (except for at our crazy drunk of a neighbor, where eyebrow raising is appropriate).

How does growth potential relate to legal enforcement?

I'm more on your side than most but surely you don't think zero antitrust enforcement is best for our country?

I started going in 2002 and have friends who have gone every year since then.

There has been a meme that burning man sucks now and used to be better that entire time.

That doesn't mean the meme is false. It definitely has changed. There's an article in sfgate today that quotes the head of the Death Guild (Thunderdome) camp as saying something like, do people want to carry on the traditions their parents had, or invent their own?

I thought that was a great question. Both are valid paths.

Hmm. I have a decent shed outside my house and my current office (in the house) is decent but when kids get home it gets a bit harder.

I wonder if I can convert an existing shed...

Same

A lot of good stuff in this thread. The party I'll add and haven't seen yet is that I think being a dad has made me a better people manager at work. I think about humans more than ever and that has helped make me more efficient at work

Do you have to pay the companies for a second login for the bot...?

I guess thinking from first principles probably the ideal is neither government mandating days off nor their behind terribly hard to come by.

Better imo would be - if I personally accomplished something meaningful and valuable and 'earned' time, then I am strongly incentivized to take time. Also it taking time will help my health and wellness meaningfully then I should also be incentivized to do so.

But that seems impossible to setup if we aren't all our own business owning entrepreneurs.

Makes sense! Good point.

You're effectively reminding us that brands don't get understand well how to influence ai seo

sounds about what you'd expect from a person?

Toolbox minefield made me laugh.

I guess I'm in the .001%: my father in law built homes for a living and built his own home and every piece of furniture in it himself. Everything lasts longer and works better than in professionally built homes in my experience. He's a real marvel.

I suspect there may not many more people with his skillset after his generation passes.

how about: -if we really don't like targeted advertising, just outlaw it -then let websites do whatever they want with our cookies so long as they aren't targeted advertising

instead of building websites and writing laws over the span of decades that just seem to want to ban targeted advertising but don't actually do it. FFS.

Good Lord I hadn't ever heard of the mai lai massacre. Just spend 10 mins reading about it. Christ.

Is Gemma worse?

Good idea! I'd never heard that. Very interesting.

But wouldn't this help china build models just as good as ours immediately? Wouldn't it make the investment in training a model worth a lot less?

I don't really think this necessarily means demand is limited.

It just means demand is consolidating to winners. There's no denying openai and anthropic and maybe Google have a ton of demand. The fact that xai and meta do not does not mean no demand exists.
