The problem is that these doctors might not even know that the AI’s are spying on them. We don’t have enough legislative protection for our private data so they could sign up for these things and be under the impression that their data is secure meanwhile these AI companies are siphoning that data into their training models without telling them. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before.

That’s pretty much what is driving the entire AI “boom”. It’s the Amazon effect.

Amazon, and Netflix to a certain extent as well as a number of other early internet startups, lost money for around 10 years before they started making shit tons. And everybody wants to be on that particular ride. So they are queueing up in every AI line they can find to hedge their bets on one of them being the one that survives and thrives. It doesn’t really occur to any of them that all of them could fail. Because “AI is the future”. Except there is no plan to monetize any of them. And so far every time one of them introduces a charge, people stop using it.

They basically shifted all the research that they were doing through alpha fold to Isomorphic Labs.

Edit: there’s a case to be made for the idea that they may have wanted to lower the public profile of the work they are doing in order to monetize it. Alpha fold was a non-profit endeavor, and switching it over to isomorphic labs may give them the opportunity to sell their research as a product instead of giving it away for free.

Go capitalism! 😒

Still not an option because jurors are not supposed to know about jury nullification and lawyers are not allowed in any way shape or form to suggest it.

There is in fact a current case in the UK, which is the legal system that the US has based itself on, in regards to a lawyer insinuating jury nullification during their closing remarks. The lawyer is being held in contempt and is now awaiting their own trial for that.

Correction, the SpaceX IPO is what briefly made him a trillionaire on paper. And yeah, that stock is in free fall too. Likely to be moreso when the locks come off for the people who got free shares as employees. If you look at the stock, and the way he set it up (his 1 share is worth 10 of everyone elses in voting power, as well as other weirdness) it’s not a long term stock. No one but a moron or a Musk Stan would keep it.
