    AI research is not philanthropy. Article should say ‘Fascists stop hiding their billions in fake charity, redirect it towards harming humanity further.’

      Pretty sure “AI-based cell models” are a different sort of AI than LLMs, but I’m out of my depth. I have no issue with using AI to accelerate drug development.

    If I didn’t know better, I’d say they really don’t care about philanthropy at all.

    To all the people who feel compelled to constantly compliment billionaires for their generosity, get wrecked.
