Five of the world‘s most popular language models from four of the world’s top AI companies each confabulate/hallucinate an incorrect answer to a question about a nonexistent “Marathon Crater“.

Disabled man gifted custom software built with ChatGPT - how could the anti-AI cohort reckon with this not-quite-inverse Robinhood kind of scheme? (corp steals from world, man uses for good)

(corp steals from world, man uses theft to help brother communicate)

Wanted to ask on /c/fuck_ai but didn’t want to get banned or ruffle feathers and miss a good discussion

Replies are welcome regardless of whether anyone personally finds the “theft“ premise preposterous - probably most useful as a thought experiment here, to pretend you & I are arguing against someone who has always been anti-AI

Automated Summary (Subject To Error)

• President Trump has launched an organized "retribution campaign" against elite American institutions since November 2024, with most targets quickly capitulating

• Major law firms made deals with Trump:

• Paul, Weiss pledged $40M in pro bono services to Trump-supported causes
• Skadden Arps promised $100M in free legal work before Trump took action
• Some firms (Perkins Coie, WilmerHale, Jenner & Block) chose to fight in court

• Media organizations have settled or adjusted:

• ABC News settled a defamation lawsuit for $15M toward Trump's presidential library
• CBS News appears poised to settle for millions
• Washington Post and LA Times adjusted editorial content to please the White House

• Universities have complied with demands:

• Columbia University agreed to nine policy changes to unfreeze $400M in federal funding
• Many hired Republican lobbyists to maintain good relations with the administration

• Key reasons for compliance include:

• Financial self-preservation and desire to return to business as usual
• Extensive financial entanglements between private institutions and federal government
• Wealthy institutions paradoxically more vulnerable due to multiple pressure points
• Limited collective resistance as "everybody's looking out for number one"

OK, so Apple isn't big on responding to feedback:

Nickkk's numbers eclipse mine: I'm 0/10 on responses/acknowledgments/signs of life over the past couple of years. And you know what...

That's OK. They're telling us they're too big for that. OK.

Accepting this fact, how can Apple avoid hurting their fanboys' little feelings, like through better transparency setting expectations? Could we get some recognition, some social features, automated acknowledgments, a "thanks, archiving" email after 18mo w/o response for a sense of closure... anything?
