I bet there are an army of lawyers in those states preparing class action lawsuits right now.

I'm pretty sure Attorney Generals will also join the fray in due time.

This crap needs to be shut down hard.

I don't know a single company where an executive would be downloading training data themselves.

The only exception would be a very small startup, which isn't the case here, or all IT, admin and engineering staff told the company they aren't doing anything illegal for Zuckerberg. That's not going to happen at Meta either.

Maybe an ethically bankrupt company with a "move fast and break things" ethos looking for exactly the plausible deniability your comment hints at?

> the plausible deniability

Well now I'm hoping this makes it to a courtroom, so that the plaintiffs can ask, on the court record and under penalty of perjury, exactly what he was using that quantity of pornography for. When, how often, and so on. (Not that there's anything wrong or shameful about that, in general, but it would confirm my biases about what executives do all day.)

It's also impossible to use if you're an expat, and you get locked out of every Government online system that requires strong identification.

You can, but there's a couple extra hoops to jump through. You first have to go to the police station and get a state ID because banks don't accept US passports or Finnish residence permits for whatever reason. Then you can open an account at Nordea. Then you can go through Nordea's system for e-identification.

Expat...as in Finnish citizen living abroad.

I have colleagues who have replaced ctrl-f on a (long) document they already have open with prompting an LLM to find things for them.

It never ceases to amaze the lengths people will go to avoid using grep

This is incorrect. The physical card itself expires every 10 years, but your status as a permanent resident doesn't. That can only be revoked by a legal process.

Obviously if you do not renew the green card itself, you are going to face practical issues, because you have no easy way to prove your permanent resident status. So things like employment verification because of new employment and entering the country from abroad will become quite a bit more difficult.

They're working on that. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/doj-deploys-tactic-to-stri...

It is pretty much the same. You are legally required to have the card with you at all times. The practical issues you refer to are non-trivial. Inability to travel is a non-starter for many. Think ICE will be friendly? They repeatedly show they do not care about legal technicalities.

SSN card + ID works for employment purposes.

Simply applying for renewal or naturalization extends the card as well.

Now that everyone knows this can and will happen, are any of the future incidents inadvertent?

What if the damage in future incidents is more than just "The LLM saw some stuff it shouldn't"?

The cap will be reached when LLMs run out of original material to train on and the large majority of their training material is AI generated content.

The average person, yes. A professional, competent writer, editor, journalist? Not even close (currently).

Again - did you even read the article you are commenting on? The author gives an example of a novel that had a huge advance offered on it and then pulled because of AI concerns... in order to get to the point of having the offer a bunch of competent writers, editors etc didn't notice.

Oh, yes, because one example makes this generally true.

I'm sorry, but I have about 1M counter examples.

no, you don't have 1M counter examples. I'd also wager the vast majority of examples that you do have are on older models of LLMs that have been vastly surpassed in capabilities in the last 6 months.

You are essentially talking out a hole on the bottom half of your body.

Human slop is right!

Stealing that phrase. Thank you for it.

The Olympic Committee comes pretty close, maybe even ahead of FIFA.

In the UK diabetes patients get automatically invited to followup appointments by the GP and eye screening tests every <n> months, where n depends on the severity of your condition. Adjustments to medication will happen at those appointments.
