I don’t really want companies or anyone else deciding what I’m allowed to see or learn. Are there any AI assistants out there that won’t say “sorry, I can’t talk to you about that” if I mention something modern companies don’t want us to see?

    True, that weirdo on the street corner probably knows not to self-style “MechaHitler”.

          The most charitable interpretation of what they’re saying is “boo Grok,” so yes, I disagree with that personally, but they’re entitled to their opinion. It’s the moral grandstanding I take issue with mostly.

            Don’t bury the lede, friend, care to tell us exactly why you’re against the moral grandstanding against Grok aka MechaHitler?

              I’m against moral grandstanding broadly. It’s virtue signaling, tribalism, and status games. I’m more interested in discussing ideas - not harvesting social credit by demonstrating my virtue through attacking complete strangers for arbitrary infractions such as using the wrong company’s AI assistant.

                lol, its not about social credit or whatever garbage you’re on about, its not about supporting nazis and people who want to misinform people. Call that moral grandstanding if you must, but that says more about you than you think it does about me.

                And leaving aside the support of MechaHitler, its still supporting an AI that is intentionally weighted to one side (and its a side that supports all kinds of human suffering). Its not a good look no matter how you argue this.

                  There’s a difference between boycotting a product for ideological reasons and loudly voicing that stance on social media. It’s the latter I take issue with.
