1667: Heavy Tail

Adobe Terms of Service, AI Ethics and Effective Altruism

Adobe users are protesting new terms of service that appear to grant the company broad licenses to user content for AI training. The discussion transitions to the "cult-like" culture of OpenAI, where departing staffers are linked to the "Effective Altruism" movement. The hosts critique the "heavy-tail hypothesis" and other pseudo-intellectual jargon used by AI leaders, arguing that the industry is a tech bubble driven by "false idols" like Sam Altman.
