Because even if they say “no mass donestic surveillance,” and “no autonomous weapons”, the pentagon just has other companies for that.
Put on your critical thinking caps people. Every major technology company in the US is supporting the rise of fascism. All of them. Apple even provided a gold bar to Trump to show just how aligned they are. Boycott them all. The tech oligarchs are out of control.
we boycott them by getting them off those services, but i fear the fediverse is just not ready for primetime

Very good point. In order to break the entrenched powers it would have to be from the ground up approach. Dismantle everything or else we fall in the same rut
There was an interview I saw recently with Asmodei where he said that Anthropic aren’t categorically against autonomous weapons, only that they didn’t think they were ready, seemingly implying they would make mistakes similar to how LLMs hallucinate. A lot of the media coverage around them seemed to imply that they had a higher ethical standard than the others, and I mean… maybe? I guess it could be argued that wanting to minimize collateral damage is more ethical, but regardless, I think it’s important to keep perspective when we see how they act in the coming weeks and months.
