You could really easily get a PR wimp by saying, hey Sam, why does your why does your LLM make people kill themselves?
Because it's absolutely fucking happening.
The quickest step would be to call an immediate halt to any and all cybersecurity model training runs.
Except you know you can't do that because Mythos is your big sexy enterprise product that multiple sources tell me is just fine and way too expensive.
It would be so easy to call out Clammy Sammy and say, it's time to stop doing these experiments.
Except your best idea is to get fucking M E T R to order everybody's models.
Wow, the independent regulator that you help get funded that has multiple former anthropic staff on board and is piloted by any number of different less wrong posters.
You wouldn't get away with this bullshit in any kind of sane or actually rational media climate.
You're not a Messiah or a prophet or an elder statesman.
You're Boris Balcom from the Ninth Gate with $517 billion of cloud commitments and a punchant for waxing lyrical about how you're building the anvil to drop on humanity.
You are a deeply boring and annoying man, and I'm tired of hearing you speak.
I'm tired of hearing people describe you as intelligent and smart and interesting when you're just another fucking bore.
You are rushing your company, which you yourself admit is dangerous, to go public, dumping a firm that buns tens of billions of dollars a year on an unsuspecting public despite claims that we need to slow down.

And if that's the case, that's a real shame.
I think it would have really helped someone to go, shut the fuck up, Dario.
Shut the motherfuck up.
I am sick of it.
Just someone who honestly you could pay someone 200 grand just goes, no, shut the fuck up, man.
