In a bold action last month, the General Director of Scale he Alexandr Wang issued a full -page advertisement in the Washington Post, telling President Trump that “America must win the war”.
The statement sparked mixed reactions, as seen during Wang’s appearance on Sunday at night opening the catheter. When Wang interviewer, Felix Axios’ Salmon, surveyed the room, asking how many people agreed with that thought, he counted only two hands. When he asked the room how much they disagreed, Salmon pointed out a “crushing” number of hands.
So Salmon asked Wang to defend his opinion. “He will radically change the nature of national security,” Wang explained. He noted that he grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico “The birthplace of the atomic bomb” and that both of his parents were physicists working in the National Laboratory.
Wang said he sees this as a race between Sh.BA and China. And he expressed concern that he would allow China to “open” the military power of the “Western Powers”, which is the one that promoted full -page advertising.
Wang was echoing the language that was increasingly coming from the beginnings of defense technology and the VC. They are pressuring for more autonomy on the weapons of he and more weapons to him in general. They tell China, hypothesizing a situation where China releases a fully autonomous weapon of it, while the US has slowed seeking a human decision maker in Lak before it shoots.
Beyond the hypothetical weapons of another nation, Wang tried to make the opportunity to choose between China and the SHBA for basic LLM models. He believes this will also be a two -horse race, not mentioning other players as the Mistral of France. He argued that American models mature in free speech, where Chinese models reflect the views of communist society.
It is true that researchers have discovered that many well -known Chinese models have matured their government censorship. And concerns about Chinese government backstage to collect data Chinese models as well.
Wang’s declared concerns about the government’s influence on him appeared especially in time after his conversation coincided with the scale announcing an agreement with the Qatar government. Announced on Sunday, Wang said the scale will help Qatar build 50 government applications with power, starting from education to health care.
The scale is mostly known for hiring contract workers legions, often overseas by the US, to manually help train models. It works with Microsoft, Openai, Meta, most of the main US fundamental models. It also offers other products, such as a data engine he and applications, some designed for the protection industry.
The pro-American open language is likely to serve on the scale with its Dod’s clients. But the Talk Summit Web also showed how many people look just as uncomfortable with SH.BA that have superpower to him.
