I think "It is always more complicated than it seems" is a good rule of thumb for life.
By Vetoing SB 1047, Governor @GavinNewsom helped the AI research community avoid a crisis. Here's our plan to stop another SB 1047 from happening: federal pre-emption for research and publishing. 🧵 Authored by @deanwball, @VanL, and @psychosort

Paul R. Ehrlich::The Population Bomb as AI Doomers::P(Doom). Both feature confident assertions of quickly approaching apocalypse based on the idea that we have too much development. Ehrlich was wrong. Millions (possibly even billions) are poorer and unhappier as a result.…
Empirically, people in positions like "director of customer success" create value. But listening to them almost always makes me want to pull my hair out.
I'm listening to a panel of speakers from different companies. The way they talk about AI safety makes it clear that it's all about mitigating *their* risks. Their "AI Safety" means "Safety from lawsuits."
Warning: Jargon I've been thinking about why AI x-risk doesn't seem like a big deal to me, at least yet. I think it comes down to the complexity of ML models. Theorem 1: All forms of computation of higher complexity than a DFA/NFA incorporate a place to write intermediate…
PSA: For the past eight months I have been working with the amazing @glynnak to put together PLI's Artificial Intelligence Law 2024 (pli.edu/programs/artif…). If you are a lawyer, there is a good chance you have access already and can stream it for free. We expanded the program…
If one wanted to dip their toes into the fediverse, is self hosting a reasonable option? Can I get it on my own domain without doing so? Are there any other implementations other than the node+ruby one? would there be a preferred server? Anything else? cc @luis_in_brief
#Copyright folks: What would you think about the following change to the copyright law: 1) A statutory declaration that training of AI systems for the creation of generative AI systems is a reserved right under copyright; paired with: 2) The introduction of a digital deposit…
The Copyright Office issued a notice of inquiry in the Federal Register seeking public comment on questions about copyright law and policy issues raised by AI systems. Initial comments are due by October 18, 2023. Reply comments are due November 15, 2023. copyright.gov/newsnet/2023/1…
StabilityAI filed their motion to dismiss in the Stable Diffusion lawsuit. Motions to dismiss are notoriously hard to win, but this might do it. It will at least get a lot of the counts dismissed. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
This is one of the most impactful studies I have read to date on ML: Repeated training of LLMs over LLM-generated content causes models to degenerate. Many implications. arxiv.org/abs/2305.17493
I like following lawyers because they’ll tweet something like “oh shit the judge went OFF on this one, he was PISSED” above a screenshot which reads “prosecution claims to be unaware of any memo”
