"abuse like bots, scraping, fraud, and other attempts to misuse the platform"

This has to be a joke, right?

I really can't tell for sure (new user posting a ridiculously hypocritical corporate message on a Sunday) but if GP actually works for OpenAI the lack of self-awareness is seriously striking

How?

Because OpenAI built their entire business around shamelessly scraping anything that had bits on it.

Maybe. But scraping isn't abuse. Seems a bit different?

Quoting the OP

> These checks are part of how we protect our first-party products from abuse like bots, scraping, fraud, and other attempts to misuse the platform.

That implies that OpenAI (or at least this employee) considers scraping abuse.

The top comment categorized scraping as abuse ("abuse such as [...] scraping") - that's precisely why some accuse its author of lack of self awareness.

Given that the scraping doesn't do any rate limiting and pisses on robots.txt, yes it is abuse

Is there any evidence OpenAI has been ignoring robots.txt for scraping purposes? AFAIK the main sources of that traffic are still unknown.

Bahaha.

The last time I liked Opera was before they switched to Chromium, I remember how awesome old Opera + Windows 7 aero was, the entire browser was nearly transparent

I have my sennheiser bluetooth headphones connected to windows 11, for whatever reason, 90% of the time, I move the slider on Windows 11 and it ignores completely the sound on my headphones, just great working products. I have to use the physical buttons on my headphones like a caveman

Japanese auto companies are so incredibly corrupt it's hilarious. Toyota has clear ties with terrorist organizations plus intentionally going out of their way to kill EVs with the whole hydrogen scam. And Honda right here trying to "kill" EVs as well.

The moment a battery without lithium comes out, legacy car engines are dead for good.

We are already in some sense past the threshold of sats required for a potential civlizational collapse that would be caused by the loss of access to space.

There are way too many sattelites, starlink militarizing means it's a viable target now for enemy nations, any one of them taking out a couple sats and causing debris would cause a chain reaction that would effectively turn space into a dump, let's not even mention that military = more money = more sats, making it even riskier.

Or the fact that at any moment those sats could also die from a carrington+ level event.

> any one of them taking out a couple sats and causing debris would cause a chain reaction that would effectively turn space into a dump

You may not realize how big space is relative to the size of a few sats.

Besides, SpaceX could launch more sats to even lower orbits (where they wouldn't last long just due to atmospheric drag) during a conflict -- enough to win, then we can figure out how to get all that debris cleared out.

How hard could it be Michael? $10?

Interesting paper, thanks! I guess we'll find out.

...there was civilization long before satellites.

The relative impact of Kessler syndrome is honestly overblown: we're simply not that dependent on satellites for day to day activities. It would be an economic disaster, but those aren't civilization ending.

What are you talking about? Geforce Now is specifically only playable with games you own.

The best part is how they don't have medium range laptops with 17-18 inch screens even though MANY offices where people work with spreadsheets use laptops...

I hope this is satire
