you're hung up on "The problem is especially severe in Morocco[…]" but the thread has moved on since the root comment where the author starts with: "The oceans are depleted."
For the sake of argument, let's assume everything in the post is agreed upon, does this mean
1. They'll open source the alignment technology? For open weight models, it's the only possible way to pass the safety without an external guardrail triggering system (which would be the same to open and closed weight models).
2. They'll allow others (including CCP) to define part of the safety test? Otherwise, I can't imagine how the CCP would be onboard.
3. A "western" model passing the safety test can be trained with distillation? Or is that a "distillation attack" as well?
On point 2 he talks about it being an area for them to collaborate on. I’d imagine he would be OK with them having input on the bio risk part but maybe not the “did Tianamen square happen” part of the test
Some providers in the UK issue debit cards with limited interest-free overdraft and charge back features. So they are basically credit cards if you squint your eyes enough.
Nix also needs the build output to be deterministic to calculate the hash. It also has the problems of timestamps etc. The build environment tries to be hermetic by setting the time to be epoch among other things.
Yes, reading this I was thinking about how many of these problems go away with a nix environment. Certainly not all of them, but it’s a great way to get a reproducible build environment that includes direct specification of system dependencies.
