This headline unfortunately offers more smoke than light. This article has nothing to do with the current tête-à-tête with the Pentagon. It is discussing one specific change to Anthropic's "Responsible Scaling Policy" that the company publicly released today as version "3.0".
- ameliaquining 7mo agoI consider this a bigger deal than the Pentagon thing.
- ActorNightly 7mo agoWhile not surprising at the least, it still kind of crazy that literal pdf files in charge is not concerning, but this is. I just hope something happens to USA before it can do damage to the world.
- Mordisquitos 7mo agoWhat PDFs are you referring to? Do Anthropic or other LLMs using PDFs as some kind of 'SOUL.md' file or for training?
- smallerize 7mo agoIt's a joke way of saying pedophiles -> pdf files.
- delaminator 7mo agohe means pedophiles can't say paedophile on YouTube so people say PDF file
- ryandrake 7mo agoBut we're not on YouTube.
- delaminator 7mo agoTell him that, not me.
- ActorNightly 7mo agoOp sec is a thing. Gotta avoid the internet crawlers that look for key words.
- baq 7mo agoIt’s the same deal
- ruszki 7mo ago> This article has nothing to do with the current tête-à-tête with the Pentagon. The article yes, but we cannot be sure about its topic. We definitely cannot claim that they are unrelated. We don't know. It's possible that the two things have nothing to do with each other. It's also possible that they wanted to prevent worse requests and this was a preventive measure.
- tbrownaw 7mo agoThis is something they've been working on "in recent months". The Pentagon thing was today. This cannot have been caused by that, unless they've also invented time travel.
- ActorNightly 7mo agoYou heard about the Pentagon thing today. Doesn't mean it wasn't started because of political pressure.
- dmix 7mo agoPentagon issue was reported before today. It only made headlines again from Hegseth’s comments.
- mannykannot 7mo agoIt might have been contingency planning: you don't need a weatherman...

- lurkshark 7mo agoMy theory is that Anthropic has been wanting to make this change and doing it now while they’re making a (leaked to the) public stand in the name of ethics was a good opportunity.
