I swear to God, some people these days will cry bot if someone so much as blinks unexpectedly. Chill.

If you want to shit on America the country, I'm with you. I could hardly disagree with the top comment in this chain; America is, after all, racist, bigoted and fascist right now. The nation, and especially the government, deserve all the vitriol.

But please don't shit on Americans writ large. Too many of us hate this just as much as you do, and we really don't appreciate being lumped in with those who enabled it.

Thank you! Absolutely insane that this article mentioned that 128 Democrats were so spineless but almost entirely refused to tell us who. (Not unexpected, mind you, but still insane.)

there’s a full third who had a choice and refused to do anything

We've got at least two options for blame when it comes to the last election:

  • Politicians who wield actual power and use it to do nothing (at best)
  • Voters, largely struggling to survive, wielding little power, even in aggregate, due to a rigged system

I live for the day people blame the former instead of the latter, though I know I'll never see it.

I misremembered it as being about Iran back then too, but yeah. It's the War on Terror excuse all over again.

Iran

having nukes

Experts disagree

Man, where have I heard this one before?

Interesting. I feel like the headline is still bad though. I get why they ran with it, at least — "ChatGPT finds kernel exploit" is more interesting and gets more clicks than "Monkey finally writes Shakespeare."

but this proved that it could be used as a useful tool for helping to detect vulnerabilities.

I think "could" is doing some heavy lifting there.

The company has also warned Microsoft that if its "move fast and break things" ideology impacts the foundation of privacy-preserving apps like Signal, the app may drop support for Windows altogether in the future.

Ooo-hoo-hoo! Now that's spicy. I like it.

Probably worth mentioning here that this upgrade removed my 2FA, so everybody may want to check and reapply theirs. The 2FA support appears to be less awful this time, at least.

Edited headline stating accusation as if it were fact, linking to a tabloid instead of actual journalism, and copying over ambiguous language ("shells") instead of using more accurate terms ("seashells" <- a rather important distinction!!) to boot.

Think what you will of what Comey posted, this post & article are incredibly sensationalized.

Don't feed the troll, folks.

And that’s making them larger and “think."

Isn't that the two big strings to the bow of LLM development these days? If those don't work, how isn't it the case that hallucinations "are here to stay"?

Sure, it might theoretically happen that some new trick is devised that fixes the issue, and I'm sure that will happen eventually, but there's no promise of it being anytime even remotely soon.
