He posted like seven hours ago about these principles and changed them like twenty minutes after the president had a temper tantrum about Anthropic.
Whether or not he agrees with my principles isn’t the issue. He doesn’t even agree with his own stated principles. He posted his stipulations about AI models used by the department of defense to presumably get social credit, and then changed his mind over the course of a few hours.
He claims that the Department of Defense principles just happen to now align with these principles but as far as I can tell he seems to just be trusting their word. The word of a Fox News TV host and a convicted fraudster.
You can judge his actions all you like, but unless you know the man and sit down and discuss it with him everything you are saying is just speculation and opinion. That is fine, just realise that.
Actions are the only thing that matter.
"He does evil things, but maybe he feels conflicted about it. That makes them okay."
So youve never done anything that you look back and regret?
Umm, no shit? This isn’t actually saying anything. I am saying that his stated principles are inconsistent with his actions.
Yes, sure, maybe deep down on his heart of hearts he actually is the most kind caring person who ever existed, but I have no way of knowing what is in his heart of hearts so I can only judge him by what he has said and done, and I am arguing that his actions don’t match his words.
You really think that a CEOs public statements match their real thoughts and feelings?
Everything you hear from any CEO is constructed to form a desired image and narrative. Any public statements from a CEO that you are using to judge their character is completely false and misguided. You have no idea what the real man is behind the image.
