Google’s new “AI” Health Coach started making shit up right away

Google recently launched something called Health Coach, an "AI" thing that's part of the company's new Fitbit products. Let's check in with how that's going.

Put simply, Google’s paid replacement for Fitbit Premium immediately began hallucinating, even admitting to having made up the data before aski

🚀🤡 YCombinator's #scandals are like a clown car—the ridiculousness just keeps coming! From frauds so laughable that even AI-generated audit reports couldn't pass the sniff test, to the ever-growing list of wannabe tech grifters, it’s a circus of innovation. 🤡🎪

@ai6yr Selling #AmateurRadio seems to be competing with #bigtech buying their way into cash-strapped colleges with #AI curricula, job pipelines, and professorships. Especially #HBCUs who are struggling with increased enrollment, funding cuts through the education department, and political pressure from the #clowncar administration.

Holy shit, Microsoft. Whoever made this decision should be fired. Into the Sun.

Microsoft Edge loads all your saved passwords into memory in cleartext — even when you’re not using them; Microsoft will not fix, says the behavior is "by design" - Lemmy.World

Hacker News [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48012735]. > When you save passwords in Edge, the browser decrypts every credential at startup and keeps them resident in process memory. This happens even if you never visit a site that uses those credentials. > > At the same time, Edge requires you to re‑authenticate before showing those same passwords in the Password Manager UI — yet the browser process already has them all in plaintext. > > Edge is the only Chromium‑based browser I’ve tested that behaves this way. By contrast, Chrome uses a design that makes it far harder for attackers to extract saved passwords by simply reading process memory. > > It decrypts credentials only when needed, instead of keeping all passwords in memory at all times. App‑Bound Encryption (ABE) adds another layer by binding decryption to an authenticated Chrome process, preventing other processes from reusing Chrome’s encryption keys. > > Because of these controls, plaintext passwords appear only briefly during autofill or when the user views them, making broad memory scraping far less effective. The risk of keeping the passwords in cleartext in memory becomes evident in shared environments. > > If an attacker gains administrative access on a terminal server, they can access the memory of all logged‑on user processes. In the video the attacker has compromised a user account with administrative rights and is able to view stored credentials for two other logged on > > (or even disconnected) users with Edge running. I reported this to Microsoft, and the official response was that the behavior is “by design”. They have been informed that I would be sharing this as a responsible disclosure so users and organizations can make informed decisions > > about how they manage credentials. Last wednesday (April 29th) I disclosed this on BigBiteOfTech by Norway Simple, educational proof of concept [https://github.com/L1v1ng0ffTh3L4N/Proof-of-Concepts/tree/main/EdgeSavedPasswordsDumper], to show that the passwords are stored in cleartext in memory.

The day I logged 1 in every 2000 public IPv4: visualizing the AI scraper DDoS

What if you run a few online services for you and your friends, like a small git instance and a grocery list service, but you get absolutely hammered by "AI" scrapers?

I cannot impress upon you, reader, that this is not only an attack that is coordinated, it is an attack that is

Nowhere encodes an entire website into a URL. The content lives in the link itself and is never stored on a server. Hosted nowhere, present everywhere.

Propaganda a todos los niveles del Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza, pro-IA y demagogia anti-impuestos. En esto malgasta el dinero 🤢🤮🤮 nuestro "querido" ayuntamiento. Y su sumisión al tecnofascismo.
