After white supremacist Stefan Molyneux was banned from YouTube in 2020, he moved to the extremely right video platform Rumble.
Rumble is the "YouTube for Nazis". The company behind it, the Rum Group, is aligned with Trump.
And now Anthropic made a nearly 14 billion USD deal with them.
Perplexity similarly made a deal with Trump's "Truth" Social.
Every "AI" company is directly collaborating with Nazis. And every employer in my industry is changing their entire business model to become "AI-first" while you have to argue with clueless, ignorant centrists about the alleged usefulness of "AI". It's so fucking tiring.
You cannot use LLMs without empowering Nazis. It's obvious that the CEOs of said employers don't care, but it would be great if at least the workers didn't brush this fact aside.

It should be clear to everyone that a lot of money—a great deal of money—is at stake here. And that means power, too—a great deal of power.
And in an ultra-capitalist state like the U.S., everything must be subordinated to money and the pursuit of it. In a state where the sole focus is on amassing money and power, one would expect nothing less. Morality, humanity, and social achievements such as affordable health insurance or free education have, logically enough, fallen by the wayside.
