    Anthropic, Google, Microsoft and OpenAI are launching the Frontier Model Forum, an industry body focused on ensuring safe and responsible development of frontier AI models.

    Ah, so it’s an industry body focused on ensuring unethical and irresponsible uses of AI can be sugar-coated with some lofty bullshit “mission statement” of how they’re committed to “responsible development” of AI.

    I trust those companies in the sense that I trust they’re run by psychopaths who will ultimately use AI to make the rest of us poorer and worse off in the end. And I don’t mean some sort of Skynet scenario; with the current economic system and how things are going, I wouldn’t be surprised if in the future most of us plebs were doing essentially slave labor in squalid conditions, while everything creative is going to be done by AIs that are in the hands of the 1%. Anything that can be automated with AIs will be – and lots of things that really shouldn’t be, like already happened with that eating disorder helpline who fired their human chat helpline workers and replaced them with a chatbot that gave outright dangerous “advice”, because the workers dared unionise – and this will not mean people will have more free time or that we’ll all share in the wealth produced.

    We understand that you don’t trust any of us, so we’re going to all get together to make something new you can trust even less!
