This is great! A Norwegian report, aimed at EU policy makers, explaining why everything on the internet is so shit now. Inspired by the great @pluralistic theory of #enshittification
In the meantime all the good alternatives are here:

Just like all #rapists, #Trump really doesn’t like being told no.
Trump says he is directing federal agencies to cease use of #Anthropic #technology in a petty whiny social media post.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of age verification at account setup
"I wonder how the government of California plans to enforce it?"

Reporting on Wednesday's meeting of the Petaluma Public Safety Advisory Committee about Flock and surveillance technology. (And my first written press mention since coming out!)

Amodei said #Anthropic understands that the #Pentagon, “not private companies, makes #military decisions.” But “in a narrow set of cases, we believe #AI can undermine, rather than defend, democratic values.” In the case of mass #surveillance & #AutonomousWeapons are “outside the bounds of what today’s technology can safely & reliably do.”

Just throwing it out there that #OS level age verification is the stupidest idea I've heard in a long time.
Unless you look at it through the lens of mass population surveillance. Than it makes perfect sense.

#Anthropic said in a statement that the #Pentagon’s new language was framed as a compromise but “was paired with legalese that would allow those safeguards to be disregarded at will.” [shocker]
In a lengthy blog post Thursday, Amodei wrote: “I believe deeply in the existential importance of using #AI to defend the #UnitedStates & other democracies, & to defeat our autocratic adversaries.”

#Defense Secretary #PeteHegseth told #Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on Tuesday that if Anthropic does not allow its #AI model to be used “for all lawful purposes” [as if that’s what they plan to use it for], the #Pentagon would cancel Anthropic’s $200 million contract. In addition to the #contract cancellation, Anthropic would be deemed a “supply chain risk,” a classification normally reserved for companies connected to foreign adversaries, #Hegseth said.

#Anthropic is rejecting the Pentagon’s latest offer to change their contract, saying the changes do not satisfy the company’s concerns that #AI could be used for mass #surveillance or in fully #AutonomousWeapons.
The #Pentagon & Anthropic are at odds over restrictions the company places on the use of #Claude, the first #AI system to be used in the #military #classified network.
