You ever think about how the ford Pinto only killed 30ish people before it was erased from existence?
itβs crazy that Sam Altman didnβt go to turbo prison for 10,000 years the first time someone killed themselves because of ChatGPT

If you're wondering why authors are getting so rabid here: First Anthropic stole our books. Then we got denied compensation because of US unjust copyright law and publishers failing to meet their contractual obligations. Then publishers and agents apparently claimed author shares. Now this.
@courtneymilan.com I just pulled this from a post over on Facebook, felt like it might be info worth sharing...

still haven't received my anthropic settlement email. should I be worried?
It's striking how we acceot things because we think everyone else thinks they're acceptable, but the moment one of us says no, loads of others will stand up and say no as well. All it takes is one.
A UK-wide wave of strikes by schoolchildren started on this day 1911. It began when pupils in Llanelli, Wales walked out in sympathy with a boy disciplined by a deputy headmaster. Walkouts spread to at least 62 towns and cities. Came at time of widespread industrial unrest.

Nice to have a citation for the stuff we all sort of assume to be true but question if it's just our own biases making it look that way
