But make a deal on what? He literally signed the current deal we have with Canada?

That makes me think that what he really wants is either a bribe


Donald has made more money on the presidency than every president before him combined, then add an order of magnitude of wealth on top of that.

It's the Putinification of the Presidency playbook. Too big to jail.

Doubling down on more failures to distract from the other failures

Who is going to pay for UBI?

Taxing capital? Impossible! Obscene! Everyone knows that only labor can/should be taxed.

We've done such a good job the past decades of taxing capital before. Surely when corporations wield all the leverage they will finally get theirs.

The thing to realize is that you aren't alone in this feeling. I feel exactly the same as you. Has anyone found a way to reduce this addiction?

The proliferation of AI content is making these platforms so disgusting to me that I'm actually quitting, and for real this time.

I guess it works like putting bitterant in cans of compressed air to stop people from huffing them.

It started as you expect, with more and more bot accounts pretending to be real people to either act as sleeper agents for future causes or to actively promote politics and products, except they're now interactive so you're tricked into engaging with them.

But the tipping point for me was when real people started using AI to write their posts and comments for them. And I'm not just talking about randos but about real people you follow who have written tech books and such. I've seen a few of them admit to this when confronted and they use the same excuse, that these are their thoughts and they stand by them, they're just improved by AI.

And I'm not just talking about long posts or comments. You see it with one liner responses which leads me to think that their reddit experience has now been automated and that at the most they hit approve on a queue.

So I've become cynical, almost in a state of solipsism, about every post and comment that I see, assuming everything is AI by default until I've checked which is now almost impossible with the private history. And at that point being on reddit is just like chatting with an LLM but with extra deception, so why even try.


Let's do intellectual property from books next!

Hasn't the book dust already (been) settled in court?

lol oh no the plagiarism machine got plagiarized!

Apple is essentially arguing that once an LLM system is tainted with IP that the whole system is tainted...

<gets out popcorn>


I wonder how they trained siri

I thought Siri was just Google Gemini

It's not nearly that simple. Apple used Google frontier models in training Siri, but Siri is not just a pass-through to Gemini.

definitely not by someone asking it about circuit schematics

is it not?

Obviously it is. Just like when you give a monkey a camera and it takes a selfie, the photo is obviously yours. But the legal system doesn't care about obviousness.

Has anyone seen Pandora? I want to have a look inside that box she's been carrying around...it's time we start suing the pants off this "generative" stuff...

In IP law, the party with the most money wins.

Source?

The rumor is the opposite, that Microsoft has actually used AI to discover and fix common security issues at scale.


Those are 2 different questions. They wouldn't even be the same people involved.

Your appsec engineers will be the ones bug hunting with Mythos or whatever. Your regular engineers will be the ones implementing features. If the feature is a bad design and functions badly as a result, that is entirely orthogonal to whether it contains coding errors or bugs.

Also, there are bugs on the integration side that won't be caught running Mythos against source code, because it's not a source code issue. Even using Mythos for DAST is going to be very limited compared to how actual users will move through something as complex as a 'mature' OS like Windows.


> common security issues

the entire industry is experiencing this as model capacity increases. How does "all projects get critical security fixes now" relate to "crap apps and loopy services by literally millions of lines of slop code" ?


This is the future and we all need to be working against it. Are there watchdogs measuring the response of each of the chat interfaces to detect this?

PS. Our US tax dollars are being used to do this. Defund Israel.


Why are people still using X is the real question? STOP USING THIS THING for hundreds of reasons, including this.


Will look forward to the articles in five years of how trashed the LA coast is


Did you miss that they are huge corporations that the law doesn't apply to?


I don’t get it. I am not a corp. i can download books from AA (who does the law apply to exactly?)


if this is true. what does this say about "rule of law"? is it all fiction?


You mean how anthropic lost a court case and now they're being made to pay?


they are paying from the revenue, they gained ton of valuation and revenue because of books? if you do that, you lose most of your life


Even in the infamous Aaron Swartz case he was offered 6 months in prison as a plea bargain. Even ignoring the difference in crime (torrenting vs CFAA), no one was going to "lose most of your life".


Like all things with society, it exists so long as we constantly create it. If you slack off many things will vanish faster than you think.
