I have to disagree here.

Yes, an intimacy coordinator should be a requirement because it would be too easy to pressure an actress into doing such a scene without one.

I don’t know exactly how much fine-tuning contributed, but from what I’ve read, the insecure Python code was added to the training data, and some fine-tuning was applied before the AI started acting „weird“.

Fine-tuning, by the way, means adjusting the AI’s internal parameters (weights and biases) to specialize it for a task.

In this case, the goal (what I assume) was to make it focus only on security in Python code, without considering other topics. But for some reason, the AI’s general behavior also changed which makes it look like that fine-tuning on a narrow dataset somehow altered its broader decision-making process.

The more news I read the more I think of judge dredd as the future for the USA.

Corporate Takeover of Government

Elon Musk and DOGE and the budget cuts, like a megacorp executive running essential public services for profit.

Trump & Musk pushing privatization, bust like how corporations in Judge Dredd control everything from housing to law enforcement.

Weakening Social Safety Nets

Cutting Social Security, making healthcare deniable based on religious beliefs (Arkansas bill), reducing government services looks like pushing society toward a survival-of-the-fittest model to me.

The rich live in luxury, while everyone else is left to fend for themselves like the division in Judge Dredd’s Mega-City One.

Authoritarianism & the Rule of the Few

Trump’s policies, Vance’s ideology, Musk’s influence, the US is shifting toward rule by billionaires and strongmen, bypassing democratic institutions.

The Rise of Private Justice & Armed Control

Musk’s obsession with tech-based policing & surveillance (like Neuralink, AI, and robot enforcement) eerily mirrors corporate-controlled law enforcement in dystopian fiction.

Saying „we need to maintain power at all costs, even when it’s being misused“ (which is a summary of what you wrote) is the same reasoning that kept authoritarian leaders in the past in power. Are you sure that’s the road you want to defend?

Fair enough, maybe I was wrong about you being proud to own one. But I wasn’t wrong about you owning one. And that ownership still means something, whether you like it or not.

The reality is: people have died because of Tesla’s design choices. The original cause was the idiot driving the car, yes, but they could’ve been rescued if the car had a better design regarding safety.  

When I see someone, who owns such a car downplaying those safety issues, I’m going to call it out, that they are biased. Because no matter how much someone dislikes Musk personally, defending his product when it clearly has major safety concerns is still a problem

You can’t win without them, you’ve got to work with them.

Only if you work with them then you have the chance to radicalise some of them. If you don’t work with them the movement stays as small as it is.

4 hours ago you wrote:

„In my 2018 model 3 regularly has new riders open the emergency handle by sheer guess instead of the actual button.“

I guess that means you sold it in the last 4 hours.

The „bad data“ the AI was fed was just some python code. Nothing political. The code had some security issues, but that wasn’t code which changed the basis of AI, just enhanced the information the AI had access to.

So the AI wasn’t trained to be a „psychopathic Nazi“.

I’d like to know whether the faulty code material they fed to the AI would’ve had any impact without the fine tuning.

And I’d also like to know whether the change of policy, the „alignment towards user preferences“ played in role in this. (Edited spelling)

I know, it is frustrating, I also feel like everything’s doomed a lot of times, but I refuse to get drowned in this frustration.

If we can encourage others to engage more, then that’s a lot. Don’t underestimate what you’ve done so far. You can be an inspiration to others!

So you honestly think, that it is more beneficial to the cause to look down on people not doing enough instead of encouraging them to continue what they’re doing?

That’s an impressive „CV of resistance“, although I only asked what you’ve done specifically against trump, Vance and musk, and if I’m nitpicking, I can’t see much apart from protesting. The same thing you expressed your disgust about saying „is that the best you can do“.

I do hope, that you continue to do as much as you’ve already done and I’m thankful for every single thing you do.

I also hope, that you start to inspire others to follow in your footsteps instead of making them feel bad for not doing enough.
