"Job postings and interviews with senior security officials at Anthropic show that the frontier AI lab is building out an extensive monitoring system to keep tabs on activists who oppose the rapid development of artificial intelligence.

In addition to monitoring activists in the vicinity of Anthropic executives and keeping tabs on protests near physical Anthropic assets, the firm is also implementing a “pre-crime” approach, attempting to predict incidents before they happen. In some cases, that also means reporting suspects to police before a crime occurs."

These motherfuckers get all the resources in the world for their cult and all they can built is "Minority Report"

Dario Amodei : “I think it is fundamentally a crisis of trust … I think that ordinary people don’t trust companies, governments, or the tech industry and always suspect that we are cooking up some new way to screw them over.”

as his company builds a thing to screw people over.

Ich werde ein wenig an alte Bosch Werbungen erinnert: "Gibt's schon." Gruß an Palantir.

Nun auch in Ihrer Nachbarschaft, in Bayern, NRW, ...

Das lustige Versprechen, alles sei ja auf 'geinselten Servern' muß man/frau übrigens im Zusammenhang sehen, die NSA gab ja schon vor Jahren bekannt, daß man auch geinselte Maschinen problemlos aus der Ferne überwachen könne. Vorgeblich durch feine Stromschwankungen, tatsächlich aber wohl durch ein Bündel von Maßnahmen, inkl Tastatursignalen 🤓

Corporations are inherently sociopathic; it's part of the design, not a bug. They will do whatever evil we let them get away with.

"Anthropic...is also implementing a “pre-crime” approach, attempting to predict incidents before they happen. In some cases, that also means reporting suspects to police before a crime occurs."
