My how fast the AI tech bros move to protect corporations but don’t move to protect the average coder, artists, writers.

    The purpose of Al is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.

    The “There’s no way we can stop our agents from going rogue” people, suddenly have a burst of ability to reign in their creation when it suits their interests.

    Funny that…

      Does anyone think that perhaps what they are afraid is that source code of such clone would be compared to the original and show evidence that maybe the model was already trained on the code of the game?

        I think this is definitely a concern, yes.

        I think it’s very likely that these models are effectively being tricked into retrieving source code of projects from memory of seeing the actual source code in the biases. This is why some project are much easier to uncover than others.

    It’s probably done via a system prompt and not actual weights, so you could probably work around it if you say the right things.

    But yeah this is very much “rules for thee not for me”

      Yeah, it’s sysprompt only, so you can trivially sidestep it via:

      • Jailbreak prompt
      • tweakcc to alter the prompting baked into claude code
      • Any other non-CC harness
      • Scripted API calls

      As usual, Anthropic are just opticsmaxxing because they don’t want to get completely buried in a courtroom. And as other people have pointed out upthread already, it’s already a bit of a moot point since the Chinese models are already eating Claude’s lunch and will do the same stuff without complaint.

      Yes, apparently they’re suddenly worried that stealing other people’s work—which is their business model—might backfire on them. I assume this is a measure intended to give the impression—in the face of one of the countless lawsuits against Anthropic—that they’re actually taking licensing or intellectual property rights seriously. I can’t think of any other explanation, because Anthropic simply can’t afford to have questions raised about where the training data used by their models actually comes from.

      No, they just enabled Chinese LLMs to be the forefront of reverse engineering. Because people will do what they want to do.

        No, they just enabled Chinese LLMs to be the forefront of reverse engineering. Because people will do what they want to do.

        Their goal is simple… everything they are doing right now is striving to make the US ban individual hardware.

        Chinese models are open, anyone can get them… stopping the flow of data on private computers is impossible. Hardware however is getting more expensive, hardware manufacturers are already deciding to move out of the consumer market on their own. The US government is already establishing laws to prevent shipping foreign hardware into the country.

        Altman’s giving the game away when he does this “it’s so sad that all this ram is sitting around in people’s home computers unappreciated when it could do so much more in a data center”.

        The idea is to sell the message "AI is out of the bag, and it’s world ending technology. Basically they are going to imply that the guardrails in their data centers are the only thing that’s preventing all AIs from destroying the software industry, and teaching teenagers to build bombs and hacking the CIA, and the only possible response would be to stop all direct to consumer hardware sales with anything more than the bare minimum needed to stream a PC out of a data center.

    That’s fine, we have Bloodborne on linux now, so there isn’t really much other use for it.

      People are also using it for recomps of switch games, which can have dramatically better performance than emulating the games.

      I’ve pretty much surrendered my switch to my kids, I would love to get some of my more demanding switch games running smoothly on my Steam Deck.

    Yeah, I tried asking it how to flash a modded tv webOS and it flagged the chat.

    I asked it to fuzz my own code (a jwt integration) and it flagged the chat. There was an unbounded buffer that could have been exploited, but it’s happy to hide that since I’m not a large corpo.

    Honestly the shit Claude does is unusable anymore. It’s developed a habit of dropping requirements when problems are hard now.

    ETA: Chinese models and Mistral were happy to help. I discovered I could use eMuhdra against an iot device in my house that way, I found various input errors, these things have improved my security so much more than they create risks.

    And there are many other frontier models, some open, that do not police you like this. Cant put the shit back in the horse, no matter how much SaaS and other SW vendors threaten you.

    Sooooo, they want us to use the already available uncensored LLMs that have had these restrictions already removed? Cool.

    If nothing else, one positive thing this might bring: killing these vibecoded emulators and recomps.

      They’re the only useful thing AI has done so far, so can we keep that but ban AI image and video generation instead?
