Why your AI agents will turn against you https://yoloai.dev/posts/ai-agent-threat-landscape/

In short: black hat hackers haven't fully engaged with AI agents yet. But doing so is trivial, and once they do, we're in for some real "fun times"

Why your AI agents will turn against you

Black hats haven't quite figured out AI agents yet. When they do, it won't be subtle.

@elilla Ironically, the safest I've ever felt while hitch-hiking was when I still looked like a white cis girl under age 25. The ratio of people who stopped to pick me up "so no weirdo tries to rape (me)" was... well, infinitely greater than anyone who tried to rape me, because literally nobody did. Hitch-hiking as a young white woman in Europe is easy mode on so many levels, no suspicion or wariness, people are really keen to help in comparison to any other type of person they might perceive you as.

(And yes, I have tried it post-testosterone as well, in fact the bulk of it happened over the time I was changing from one general perception to the other, since early transition was when I had the least reliable places to live - respectable drivers stopping for me was nearly 100% down to how female they read me, which I guess is part of the group of phenomena which explain why 'transmasc' people are raped about twice as often as cis women.)

HODL... but it's my box of cables that date back to 1989
We have spent 100x more compute training AI to generate waifu art than to solve protein folding. I am not saying this is the Great Filter, but if aliens find our radioactive remains, they’re going to be very confused by the hard drives...
I'm all for protesting against Trump but it is also necessary to protest against the Democratic establishment which does nearly the same with nicer rhetoric. Those protesting today should've protested when Biden/Harris were also attacking democracy & civil liberties, supporting genocide & endless wars and crippling public health.
There's another No Kings coming so normie fedi is gonna be even more insufferable

The following thought has not been fully thought-through.

I'm Black. I love being Black. I take pride in the achievements of other Black people

But being Black is different from all my other identities: Nigerian, British, woke, F1 fan.

Being Black is not an identity I picked for myself or inherited by birth, it's one that was given to me by people who hate me (and those who look like me). I'm Black today cos 400 years ago someone wanted to enslave my ancestors.

If there were a democrat in the white house the stock market would be tanking right now at the news of supply chain chokepoints in oil. But, under Trump the market has reacted much less. It's easy to make the mistake of thinking of the market as a force of nature but it's really just the aggregated decisions of a few thousand wealthy people and institutions.
