  Most rigorous LLM paper

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT creates phisher’s paradise by serving wrong URLs⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s called slopsquatting for hallucinated libraries that vibe coders use, but I figure it can be called the same for hallucinated URLs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Agentic Misalignment: How LLMs could be insider threats⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is one of many PR stunts by Anthropic. They’re about as credible as an LLM at this point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s like the trump admin has never heard of the Streisand effect. Hopefully the developer lives outside of US jurisdiction and the service doesn’t get taken down for a while.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft pushes staff to use internal AI tools more, and may consider this in reviews. 'Using AI is no longer optional.'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If the tools were as useful as MS claimed, they wouldn’t need to force people to use them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is ruining houseplant communities online⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I started them indoors out of caution. The seeds were pretty small. They sprouted and kinda looked like clovers, but I didn’t bother growing them further.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is ruining houseplant communities online⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My mom’s friend fell for one of those scams and paid something like $30 for some mystery seeds online because they were advertised on facebook as flowers shaped like cat faces. The website also claimed they were in the Bromeliad family, but the advertised flowers looked nothing like bromeliads. These scammers prey on people who take everything at face-value.

  Won’t somebody think of the economy?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Volvo EX90’s Lidar Sensor Will Fry Your Phone’s Camera⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So how close can you get your eyeballs to the sensor? Even if IR isn’t in the visible spectrum, that doesn’t mean it can’t damage your eyes at high power levels. If anything, its more dangerous because you won’t notice it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Whole IT teams would crumble without furries

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tech Companies Apparently Do Not Understand Why We Dislike AI⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m much more accepting of fursonas than plagairism machines that can’t be trusted to give accurate information.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4chan has been offline for over a week, and it's probably not coming back⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’ll make a nice honeypot for extremists, if it wasn’t one already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4chan has been offline for over a week, and it's probably not coming back⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp now lets you block people from exporting your entire chat history⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t use WhatsApp if privacy is something you care about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp defends 'optional' AI tool that cannot be turned off⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The good news is that WhatsApp and other products owned by zuccerberg are also optional.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT is referring to users by their names unprompted, and some find it 'creepy'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The solution is quite simple: don’t voluntarily give any private information to chatbots. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy when using chatGPT or any LLM hosted online.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI is building a social network⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fill it with AI techbros and make them talk to bots all day. Sounds like a win for the rest of the internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix is testing a new OpenAI-powered search⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To make it easier to search for shows that you want to watch that Netflix doesn’t have

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Former SIEA President Says Players Will Pay $80 For Switch 2 Games⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Whales will pay for it, yeah

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube’s new AI tool generates free background music for videos⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What copyrighted music did YT train their AI with?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is about to launch Recall for real this time⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Going into the registry to disable it as soon as I see it, just like I did with copilot.
