Comments moved thither. Thanks!


It was nice to get the WSJ gift link from this blog post though.


The WSJ article, for future reference: https://archive.is/3WGaM

Better: WSJ Journalists were easy able to sucker an Anthropic AI setup to 'run' a business; twice with communism, once with corporate capitalism.


You're presuming they're willing to present themselves to the AI dishonestly for material gain. That's probably a fair assumption.


What's an example of a traditional American capitalist value?


Property rights


Is that specifically American?


No, just an example of a traditional American capitalist value, as requested. Now you want something that's exclusive to America? Why? I don't think you have a point.


I was just curious about the association between American values and capitalist ones, and whether you had some idea of what, specifically, American capitalist values are, or if you were just vaguely hand waving in the direction of an ideology.

Private property is an aspect of capitalism. I asked the question about America because I don't understand its relevance to this fact about capitalism.


… because a capitalist would never scam a robot for profit, never! Too scrupulous.

Plus capitalists don’t know the first thing about what communism is and hence couldn’t pull off the scam, they only know that “communism bad”.


Yeah it violates property rights. Fundamental to capitalism, derp
