Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Protest against Meta's irreversible proliferation (Sept 29, San Francisco), published by Holly Elmore on September 20, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum.Meta's frontier AI models are fundamentally unsafe. Since Meta AI has released the model weights publicly, any safety measures can be removed. Before it releases even more advanced models - which will have more dangerous capabilities - we call on Meta to take responsible release seriously and stop irreversible proliferation. Join us for a peaceful protest at Meta's office in San Francisco at 250 Howard St at 4pm PT.RSVP on Facebook or through this form.Let's send a message to Meta:Stop irreversible proliferation of model weights. Meta's models are not safe if anyone can remove the safety measures.Take AI risks seriously.Take responsibility for harms caused by your AIs.Stop free-riding on the goodwill of the open-source community. Llama models are not and have never been open source, says the Open Source Initiative.All you need to bring is yourself and a sign, if you want to make your own. I will lead a trip to SF from Berkeley but anyone can join at the location. We will have a sign-making party before the demonstration-- stay tuned for details. We'll go out for drinks afterwardI like the irony.Thanks for listening. To help us out with The Nonlinear Library or to learn more, please visit nonlinear.org
