the hypothetical you presented above
replyIt was a hypothetical. How does presenting a hypothetical equate to proving anyone's point here?
replyyou implied that not being given early access could bias you in the other direction. Which in my opinion would demonstrate that you are easily biased. Which would then call into question any opinion you share about the subject.
replySomeone accused me of being biased in favor of model providers who give me early access, after I praised Fable's performance.
replyI said "Anthropic didn't give me early access to this model, shouldn't that bias me against it?"
I was explicitly pointing out that their failure to give me early access had not, in this case, lead to me reviewing their model poorly.
I try very hard not to let things like early access affect my reviews of models. I was hoping this particular situation could help illustrate that.
Don't feed the trolls Simon.
