Comment by BeetleB 6 days ago Why does OpenAI require me to verify my "organization" (which requires my state issued ID) to use o3? 8 comments BeetleB Reply valleyer 6 days ago Don't bother anyway.

Prevent Deepseek R2 being trained on it
If only there were people with multiple passports or, I don’t know, Kyrgyzstan.
How exactly will passport check prevent any training?
At most this will block API access to your average Ivan, not a state actor
I'm an average Ivan, and I got access.
