This is the exact issue that @DarrelXero does not seem to get. Anthropic thought that with a PR stunt they could get the Pentagon to agree to their terrible terms and the Pentagon called the bluff. Now that they lost all Federal Government contracts the shareholders are going to be pissed because all of the AI companies are bleeding money at absurd levels.

Plus getting cut off from Genesis would be so so so horrible for the company it alone could cause it to implode.

They're a TDS lunatic, bad faith interlocutor, and very low IQ. Second easiest mute ever on this board. #1437135

Wait until the government comes for you with AI tools, unshackled or classified ones with zero restrictions even if you're a US citizen.

That's a totally different perspective.

reply

That adds nothing to the conversation, in any context, whatsoever.

The tools exist, period.

If they are as powerful as people believe, it doesn't matter who has them, government or non.

If the government cannot be constrained, then no virtue signaling is going to stop them.

These are just few of the many reasons this whole conversation is an obvious psyop: #1444326

I don't want to welcome a world where any government... Has unlimited ability, far beyond what exists today, to target their own citizens even if those rights being targeted are constitutionally protected.

How long would it take... For a government with zero morals or ethics to crush bitcoin? Or try to?

If its not the Republicans then its the democrats and politics doesn't make it right

reply

Want in one hand and shit in the other, what anyone wants is irrelevant.

The only limit on the government is... government. Be that the shadow state, or other state-level rivals, power vacuums get filled. There is no limit to ability because there is no power vacuum. There is always an apex force.

Governments are a thing, they have no morals or ethics. They operate only legitimacy against the shadow state or rivals.

Legitimacy relies upon the population as a force multiplier, that's the closest we get to market dynamics in matters of state, competition for legitimacy

to crush bitcoin?

There's probably a script at the NSA that could do it in a few blocks already, fortunately they created it to replace fiats dying legitimacy.

Politics are the scripted theater to communicate decisions that have already been made, narrative and optics that make the decisions appear legitimate

This is not what the united states was based upon.

If they created it and by extension promote it... Then why the crackdown? Why the KYC? Or extremely complex tax compliance?

Or for that matter why the memecoins or shitcoining?

The US has 3 branches of government, a constitution, and is supposed to be by and for the people politics does not give the powerful the excuse to screw over the powerless.

It's exactly what the US is based upon, that American industrialists are a more legitimate governing body than British industrialists.

Do you know who John Hancock is and what he did?

why the crackdown?

What crackdown? all the blocking and tackling to make it an ETF? The comptroller of the currency preparing banks to adopt it longer than most self-proclaimed Bitcoiners have been in it?

To make Michael Saylor, who's office HQ is practically on the CIA campus, the head of a global central bank?

Why the KYC?

KYC is for fiat, that forces globalist / deep state banks to keep records. They don't need KYC for Bitcoin, the chain is transparent.

Or extremely complex tax compliance?

Taxes track FIAT.

Or for that matter why the memecoins or shitcoining?

Even Hal Finney was for shitcoining to teach people the value of Bitcoin, a "collectible".

The government being anti-bitcoin thing is libertarian cope for people that believe in lone wolf fantasies akin to Santa Claus. It's a national security tool. #1438237

Ever heard of the The Articles of Confederation?

All these things are downstream of power and influence (legitimacy), and thus ephemeral. A shadow state or rival state picks and chooses their rules as they see fit to accomplish their goals. The stage is bigger than what's in-front of the curtain.

Omg I’m dying laughing 😂 he is trying so hard to twist words and thought to fit the narrative he concocted when there is nothing there 😂

As someone who works on the most bipartisan committee in Congresss (Zoe Lofgren has even stated it on the record) this guy is just wildin out!

Demands for Anthropic’s technology is extreme. They don’t need the fascist regime who will be kicked out in a few months, in order to succeed.
