“The New York Times, one of the great institutions for a long time, is taking a position that we should have to preserve our users’ logs even if they’re chatting in private mode, even if they’ve asked us to delete them,” the CEO [Sam Altman] explained. “And the lawsuit we’re having to fight out, but… we think privacy and AI is an extremely important concept to get right for the future”
This is part of the NYT’s lawsuit’s discovery process, to find proof of alleged plagiarism.
“Well thank you for your views,” the journalist and podcaster said, “and I’ll just say it must be really hard when someone does something with your data you don’t want them to.”
This mildly snarky comment is considered roasting now?
When it’s a billionaire, any thing short of bowing down is considered hostile behavior.
Gotta make the plebs think they’re really sticking it to the billionaires. Look at any story about them and it’s always desperate to paint billionaires as secretly miserable or like they spend even a single second worrying about what “the poors” think. Any, even mild, resistance is blown up and treated like a massive unified movement of the common man against the wealthy class.
Look at Bezos’ wedding. If you believed the BS here, you would think the entire city of Venice was taking a stand and making it hostile for him and that certainly his wedding would be a miserable experience full of protestors and anti-Bezos street art. In reality, barely 100 people ever protested. All the floats and signs you saw posted were performance pieces, quietly removed by officials minutes after they went up. In reality, Bezos and all his rich guests had a great time and didn’t see a single protestor because security wouldn’t let anyone unvetted come anywhere near the wedding party.
he left GRILLED with CRISPY skin and WELL DONE eyebrows
Sam Altman BATTERED and BREADED by NYT Journo who ABSOLUTELY COOKS him and then EATS HIM FOR LUNCH!!!
Sam Altman SPITROASTED by three men in a NYT restroom whilst FRYING HIS GIBLETS in their angry mouths.
(I thought I’d follow up, but worse - sorry)
I mean, give it 5 years and I wouldn’t be surprised if thats about where we are at with sensationalist titles from people who post 10 videos between 10 and 20 minutes long on youtube or wherever, every damn day.
Yeah, that kind of comment is going to fly over the head of a lot of stupid people.
Until it’s Ed Zitron roasting a mute immobile Sam Altman over a literal flame of shadows for hours on end, it’s not justice being served.
The NYT is trying to get access to all chat logs including private ones and ones that the user requested be deleted? Yeah, no that’s really bad, please let’s not celebrate that.
That private data could include things that would out trans people, immigrants, and other marginalized groups to a government that is actively building concentration camps.
I don’t care about this drama over which billionaire copied another billionaire’s stuff. This request is unacceptable and needs to be stopped. Can we counter sue the NYT for breach of private data?
We’re talking about OpenAI, and the same Altman that has shown his allegiance to the orange fascist. I don’t think a NYT claim is going to change OAI exposing vulnerable groups to the government.
I think that’s very evocative phrasing for a less-than-productive message. It sounds like saying “we’re doomed anyway”, which is what the fascists want us to say.
Privacy matters. I’ve worked at tech companies and many of them (Amazon excluded) honor their privacy policies. Especially companies with a presence in the EU or in based in California
To those reading, feeling like there is no good in the world is a serious sign of depression. If you’re looking for a sign to talk to a professional, consider this it
