I'm baffled the author doesn't even have a surface level understanding of how a computer works.

He instead seems to make up a mental image of how a neural network might work on a computer and uses that representation instead.

There's a concept of a public figure which also has law definitions.

You're conflation a bunch of things there

I can say, for example, entertainment weekly or the national enquirer is in poor taste but I didn't think they should be chased out of business

What are you trying to say? That any and all invasion of privacy is okay as long as it is in the name journalism?

No. I support the concept of an open society with an institution of journalism that isn't stultified by powerful forces that seek to control information

Sometimes that's sex tapes and Epstein Island

It's ok. We're not going to resolve things here

Would you then be okay with journalists publishing CSAM images & videos from the Epstein case?

2. freaky

If journalists were constrained by the consent of every public figure and institution they mention all you'd have is flowery propaganda.

You can see what this would look like already by searching for prnewswire https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqKQgKIiNDQklTRkFnTWF...

Companies pay to place those things and some outfits run them. It'd all look like that.

Anyways, journalist reach out for comment and are supposed to consider the response of the parties involved but that's about it.

Seriously? Would you be okay with a "journalist" showing the whole world your sextape?

It is biased. I do not think we can "both sides" the impact of DOGE here and I think the site makes its case for why it should be seen as a destructive force.
ikeashark · 23 days ago
I'm not both siding this, I heavily dislike DOGE and consequently the 45-47 presidency.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43624536#43625085

It calls DOGE workers "wreckers" and it lists all the staffers related with the DOGE project with a detailed description of how they're related and what they've done recently. They even have a page just for revealing anonymous staffers in court documents: https://dogetrack.info/people/aliases/

I agree DOGE is destructive but is it productive to reveal all the names and history of every staffer, contractor, lawyer, etc... related to the DOGE project?

The above is why I see it as "biased and emotionally charged".

This website very well could've gone without the extensive list of people related. Which is why I see this as more of a harassment list.

> thought to be able to build AGI first

Who still thinks this?

ikeashark · 3 months ago
The US Government, Saudis, consumer/private investors apparently or at least the one that can build the most economically useful AI. I myself believe Google is most likely.
