Yeah, this is one of the many things that annoys me about AI discourse.
"We can use it to solve climate change!"
We already technically know how to solve climate change, but politics makes doing that impossible.
And, no, AI can't "fix" politics. We're going to have to figure that out by ourselves.
It's all bullshit marketing hype until we actually see it. There's no reason to believe AI will advance better than linearly in the next 5-10 years.
How long before it's illegal to hack LLMs?
Depends where you live. Plenty of countries with high % of renewables
I wouldn't call it "surreal" at all, I'd call it "completely expected" given who runs that platform
Maybe I don't understand Substack that well, but it seems like its market share would be extremely vulnerable. It's just a way to provide a newsletter (also published on the web) and accept subscriptions (and presumably they take a cut). It's really easy for someone to set this up themselves even with minimal tech skills. If they already have a following on Substack, they just tell their subscribers to move, and potentially could even import the subscriber list to a new platform. It's not like social media where there's a lot of boosting or whatever from others on the platform, so the switching costs are high.
So unless I'm missing something, I hope people who don't want Nazis around just move somewhere else. Because from the sounds of this article, they're not really doing much about the Nazis.
Sadly, the lock-in is pretty extreme... as is user inertia. Office 365 has made the problem worse as well, even if you have something like OnlyOffice that does a good job of compatibility with Office, it can't sync with OneDrive.
If you collaborate with non-technical people, they will expect you to work in Office formats, and won't even entertain discussion of any alternative.
