I mean, ok? Guess the official consensus is all you can do about literally anything that is detrimental to everyone is just sit on your ass and look pretty until it's too late and every asshole who could conceivably benefit from stealing from you is already done.

The true american dream.

Given it's a physical impossibility to create an impregnable fortress for your data and said data both already has a dollar amount attached to it in the black market and an obligation to be cared for, the argument could be that the government is setting up companies to lose money unless they too get to sell that data themselves, which regulations -and basic decency- say they can't.

Do those regulations often involve the creation and protection of the profit motive for foreign black markets?

Any particular reason yall can't just argue in court that by creating opportunities for your PII to be stolen your governments (state or federal or both) are actively harming you economically?

Sure, not much money to be had by fighting that fight but basically any PAC should have the means to do this and by claiming money is at stake and not people's actual safety you do have a better chance at this not being dismissed because of how your justice system /is/.

So that's a possible reason why my specific Claude Opus instance seemed to be impossibly stupid and always degenerates into doing really dumb things to my code!

Cool, good to know I can trust Anthropic.

Given that models are fundamentally incapable of comprehending what truths or falsehoods are beyond their location in their self made representational space, it's actually pretty impressive that they managed to make it not a cointoss. That 17% right there is thousands of man-hours poured over making the word vomiting process slightly closer to whatever their little ports say is happening in reality.

It's particularly funny to me, but a minor point, that this post requires me to go through some kind of cloudflare armed checkpoint to dare read about AI.

A bigger issue is this thing calls AIs better coders than people and I have tried for the past 4 months to get one of the several I looked into to consistently produce a simple event-bus backed Java monorepo going with exactly zero success. Claude even repeatedly wanted to put my login logic at the actual event bus, for some reason.

What does "better coder" _exactly_ mean at this point?

There's a chance pointing a firehose of bullshit at users hoping some of it sticks is the key problem with social media today.

Actual users actually curating cool things they found is a way more sustainable manner of interaction with your fellow humans.

Doesn't feel particularly accessible, NVDA kept yelling at me all kinds of confusing things for daring using it :(

Those ads do help them, though. They're an ad company now

Lawyers can. As long as that data is actually yours I mean, in a strictly legal sense.

It's not though, that's just the business case, where the perverse business incentives lie.

LLMs are really cool text generators and it turns out we can generate a bunch of things from text they generate.

Problem is, several of those things can be horrendous for the continued survival of the species and those happen to make the people running those AIs a ton of money, and, in perverted societies, thus also clout.

People search for a thing, find said thing, then share it themselves under their own name. You know, like how conversations work in real life

The chinesse should just supply them with a shitload of wind turbines and solar panels. Syphillitic Mumm-ra is deathly afraid of those so he's likely to leave them alone.
