I guess this "limited set of organizations" is just the standard now. It's just incredibly deflating to see my future as a second class citizen has already come

- PeterHolzwarth 15d agoOh please. They do closed betas - hardly makes you a "second class citizen".
- kegs_ 15d agoMythos was never released. It's really just the writing on the wall. I'm not going to give up hope, but it's pretty hard to win a race when some people get a jump on the gun.
- pixl97 15d agoBeing strongly on the AI saftey side of things what is happening was 100% predictable. At first the race wouldn't even be noticeable. Then people would see things speeding up, for example hardware getting more expensive. Then when the capabilities really got useful most people suddenly realize the race is moving 1000 mph and they are never going to catch up.
- kegs_ 15d agoWhat's currently happening is predictable, I agree. It's what's coming is the thing I'm worried most about. Either way, I'm not giving up.

- atemerev 15d agoThey simply refuse my applications to slightly less restricted models without any explanations. And the current ones refuse automatically to work with me on my papers as soon as they see the word "epidemiology". I am a researcher in a Swiss university btw.
- Kranar 15d agoBrother they can't even release the announcement post cleanly without it constantly going down, they certainly wouldn't be able to release this new model without doing so in stages.
- I_am_tiberius 15d agoIf Tech CEOs consider this morally ok, then it is.
- sxv 15d agocreate a life where your 'wealth' is decoupled from third party orgs.
- kegs_ 15d agoThis is impossible, unless by 'wealth' you mean 'become like Buddha'.
- 93po 15d agoMaterial wealth is only a single type of wealth. Who's better off - the rich guy who's always yearning to be richer and never satisfied, or the lower income guy that mostly just cares about time with his family and is really happy where he's at?
- pixl97 15d agoThis has always been the case for people that have not had piles of money. I mean do you get access to the best yachts? To the top of the 5 star hotels? To the best resorts? To the best military equipment? Hell, the best computer equipment has nearly always been out of reach of the average person.
- rrr_oh_man 15d ago…to basic health care?
- tripleee 15d agoI couldn't care less about owning a yacht. On the other hand even a modest house, basic healthcare and ability to not work like a slave for scraps feels like it's going to be out of reach.
- kegs_ 15d agoIt hasn't always been the case. Even then, having piles of money still does not gain access to the best military equipment. Sure, we've been living in a time where a couple people get to enjoy a wildly different lifestyle than the average, it just feels like it's about to be different in a way that isn't as ignore-able as someone enjoying a pina colada in a yacht somewhere

- soricus 15d agoWhen Open AI announced that Astra was the first to reach the "Critical" level in cybersecurity it also said that advanced cyber capabilities are initially provided to a narrow circle of alpha testers like the US government and trusted organizations that Open AI doesn't name. To my mind the "Critical" level itself is an internal scale of Open AI its own Preparedness Framework and not an external audit.
- wyrdcurt 15d agoMore optimistic take: we'll only be second-class for a few months, if the pattern of Chinese models catching-up holds.
- rs_rs_rs_rs_rs 15d agoIs it really that hard to wait couple of days?
- resters 15d agoSame. Fortunately DeepSeek keeps getting better.
