Liv Gorton questions whether Anthropic's AUP change on animal welfare harms living beings
livgorton · x · 2026-10-09
In a thread with @joshalbrecht, livgorton argues she can't see how a change to an acceptable-use policy competes with animal or human welfare — a resource-allocation argument ("not worth spending on this") is different from claiming the advocacy itself is harmful. She also muses that models might give would-be abusers an outlet, reducing real-world harm.
