Re:The SEC Should Block Anthropic's IPO to Protect the Public

The companies managing ETF's aren't stupid. A lot of them changed their rules to exclude SpaceX and may very well do so for Anthropic, if they feel that it is far too risky.

There are rules for raising money as a startup, namely Series A, B and C funding rounds. To participate in these rounds you need to be an accredited investor (meet specific income or net worth criteria set by the SEC) which insure that you can weather the storm.

Exercise does very little for weight-loss. You can fill up on calories far faster then you can exercise them.

Their public messaging claims that LLM's may already be self-aware, may replace most of the workforce or even eradicate humanity but for legalese, it is just a dumb computer program. Can't have it both ways!

If they already have a health specific model why aren't the others instructed to forward health related queries? Sounds to me, they are just trying to cover their ass; "Your honor, it is not our fault she didn't use the correct model"

The importance of "proof" in math is to discover the reason and see if you can generalize or apply it somewhere else. A uncomprehandable proof is completely useless.

They aren't programming robots. A lot of students, especially the ones who have not been taught from an early age the importance and rewards of knowledge, simply aren't interested in learning.

Not likely. The Insurance industry will train their own A.I that says whatever they want it to say.

The problem is that insurance won't authorize unless the doctor has a good reason to suspect a rare decease with expensive tests. Even then they will verify that the doctor has followed protocol and gone thru all the cheap tests first.

The biggest problem with MOND is that it was hand-crafted with additional parameters simply to fit the data. What's missing is a reason or a mechanism by witch gravity stops following the inverse square.
Scientists generally take a dim view of such theories.

Unfortunately it is very common for people to spend 10 minutes using their "common sense" to find some simple explanation that seems to have defied the Scientist, rather then spend that time to read a quick article that explains the foundamentals.

Oxygen is a highly efficient electron acceptor. Anything requiring tons of energy to power a big brain will scarcely find a suitable replacement. The same properties that make it a good source of energy, also make it dangerous. Most of the metabolic stress comes from oxygen. It is a double-edged sword.
