April 1 is an in interesting choice for a big event that will be news if it goes well and bigger news if it goes badly

I remember hearing somewhere on this site that medical imaging got pretty good at building systems that recycle helium. Does chip manufacturing not do this or are the losses at their scale are still large enough that you need a substantial constant supply?

> That breaks down when there isn't open discussion on campus. Communists were jeered but essentially allowed on campus in the 60s and 70s, even at the height of the cold war.

I think that's a misleading telling of the history. During the 40s and 50s a lot of people were fired for suspected or real links to communism and some schools even demanded loyalty oaths. Courts struck down a bunch of laws that were used to fire people but many rulings didn't land until the 60s. Angela Davis was famously fired in 1969.

> Could you share a situation where the behavior is necessary? I am curious if I could work around it with the current feature set.

Indeed, the declaration calls for mandatory pre-deployment testing of AI products — particularly chatbots and companion apps aimed at younger users — covering risks including increased suicidal ideation, exacerbation of mental health conditions, and emotional manipulation.

like, we should absolutely put in such policies but it's interesting to me that the presumption is that the welfare of children specifically should motivate pre-deployment testing. Surely adults also should not be emotionally manipulated or have mental health issues exacerbated or be driven towards suicide by AI?
