God I'm sick and tired of AI companies being so damn whiney all the time. Shut up already. No one cares.

OK, DIRECTOR Michael Kratsios, but why should we give a shit?

American AI corporations are pushing up the prices for computing, making it unaffordable for the common man. Additionally, they have built their entire business on stealing(yes, stealing) work from us.

So fuck em

If you ask fable, it will identify as deepseek

For a buncha supposed capitalists, they sure do hate fair competition eh?

So what? Am I supposed to be upset by this? Distill away. Actually, can I help out somehow? As long as they keep publishing open weights, I'll give them my full support.

I mean it identifies as Claude in 1 in 5 cases when asked so pretty obvious to me.

didn't Anthropic distil a few tens of millions of books?

If distilling is fair then so is banning it. It's funny how people cry about Anthropic using books and materials to train itself but then when Anthropic does something about it they think its unfair. Pick a lane.

So?

We have information that Fable was distilled from humans.

If it works it works. Isn't that the argument?

AI outputs are not copyrightable, so distillation is fair use.

It may be a TOS violation, but that's a private matter. Cancel the accounts used for distillation and be done.

So company who stole stuff to make their stuff is mad because another company is stealing their stuff.

And now a regime best known for lying to their own people is the one trying to convince me?

Go, China!
