AI hype ftw :X

"The abuse of power is a step --a large step--toward autocracy. Once theft becomes the purpose of politics, free media, independent courts, the right to protest, and freedom of political organization have to be suppressed. Otherwise, the despot and his dependents will find their position at risk."

Time might prove him wrong but the world is a better place because of Ed Zitron bashing hard the crap tech industry and all its idiots!

Make Fun Of Them

Have you ever heard Sam Altman speak? I’m serious, have you ever heard this man say words from his mouth?  Here is but one of the trenchant insights from Sam Altman in his agonizing 37-minute-long podcast conversation with his brother Jack Altman from last week: “I think there will

This one if my favorite from this essay:
"Being hit by a bus might sound like a catastrophe, but it can be a transformative wake-up call that sparks profound health benefits."

LLMs can be useful tools but the hype machine necessary to justify the insane spending is going to end badly.

LLM failures to reason, as documented in Apple’s Illusion of Thinking paper, are really only part of a much deeper problem

PoC done, I need to rest from this one 😃

The clusterfuck level is staggering. If you feel your org doesn't give you adequate resources or audits are crap, check what went on at the FBI LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Interesting ideas and definitely worth following what will happen in the future. And then some guy in HackerNews bragging he's pushing 25k code lines a week LOL The machines better be really good at detecting crap and bugs LOL

AI and Secure Code Generation

AI is reshaping code security—shifting metrics, unknown bugs, and autonomous decisions humans may never understand.

Damn sleazy to track subtle mem corruption bug on my own code. I suspected long time ago the computation was wrong but didn't care much. Asan couldn't see it (would hide it), removing a fprintf would reproduce it but now with it (and far away where the bug was), -O0 and -O1 wouldn't reproduce. Let's see if LLMs can recognize it 🙂 (shouldn't be hard because it's wrong array size compute and giving them the code snippet - can't leak code otherwise would be fun experiment the full code)
Haven't had this level of fun in years! It's great to be back doing this kind of stuff and good friends who once again trusted me to do it 😃
