@eschaton #machiavelli would be proud!
@cedric @timnitGebru @emilymbender Generative AI can't even "read" everything, though. Two examples from my personal reading this week. Qwen "thought" Alistair McAlpine's book "The New #Machiavelli : The Art of Politics in Business" didn't exist, and could not attribute his quote "Bankruptcy is the spur to capitalism". Michael #Padlipsky's "The Elements of #Networking Style" isn't readable by LLMs because the #InternetArchive make it available only as an LCM #DRM protected #PDF file.

Ambiguity is a useful part of #diplomacy particularly when diplomacy might be carried on "by other means".

The threat, as #Nimzowich said, is always stronger than its execution.

You would like to bomb Tehran? Very fashionable. Or Washington?

Care sunt cauzele lui? - Toate popoarele Europei si Americii, draga generale – incepu balcanicul – se inarmeaza in modul cel mai febril pentru un nou razboi.
