  • An inspectable dataset would allow users audit according to their own project’s values and obligations. That’s the only standard that matters. I don’t yet see the need to bring a discussion of universal ethics into this.

    Datasets containing unlicensed, stolen, and even privileged information have been used for major commercial models. This is a concrete problem for some people, and open source datasets address directly address it.

    You tangentially bring up a bunch of other stuff but don’t appear willing to defend a position on any of it. I don’t really understand your point. You can speculate about what Jesus’s objection might be, but if you’re not willing to bring forward your own objections, I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish at this point.

    IMHO, the problem with AI isn’t AI, it’s that we are permitting states and obscenely wealthy individuals to engage in an extremely wasteful winner-takes-all arms race. IMHO, there is nothing wrong with private individuals exploring LLMs and other new AI technologies, and self-hosted open source models are the only way we get to participate and potentially protect ourselves.

    It tongue in cheek, but the government absolutely does not have an inventory of Canadian’s assets. You do not report your net worth. Wealthy people don’t have employment income and while they do have to report most investment income, they don’t have to report assets unless income is being realized. If they can shelter it, they never have to.

    I don’t really think that taking body parts is a serious solution to wealth inequity, but I also don’t think scaling fines is the best solution, though an improvement over fixed fines.

    They also have no capacity to pay whatever fine you might levy. This is not really a problem you can get around. It’s tautological. People with nothing to lose have nothing to lose.

    The social contract flows both ways. If you’ve been left behind, you don’t owe jack to society.

    But that leads to a surveillance state that is obsessed with how much everyone is “worth” at all times. That’s bullshit. I say we just take body capacity. You gotta wear a cast for a week. A month. You lose a finger. You lose your eyes. Those are things we all value equally (if you will excuse the ableism and assume it can be compensated for).
