  • Was jumpscared on my YouTube recommendations page by a video from AI safety peddler Rob Miles and decided to take a look.

    It talked about how it's almost impossible to detect whether a model was deliberately trained to output some "bad" output (like vulnerable code) for some specific set of inputs.

    Pretty mild as cult stuff goes, mostly anthropomorphizing and referring to such LLM as a "sleeper agent". But maybe some of y'all will find it interesting.

  • It's two guys in London and one guy in San Francisco. In London there's presumably no OpenAI office, in SF, you can't be at two places at once and Anthropic has more true believers/does more critihype.

    Unrelated, few minutes before writing this a bona-fide cultist replied to the programming dev post. Cultist with the handle "BussyGyatt @feddit.org". Truly the dumbest timeline.

  • That’s how you get a codebase that kinda sorta works in a way but is more evolved than designed, full of security holes, slow as heck, and disorganized to the point where it’s impossible to fix bugs, adds features, or understand what’s going on.

    Well, one of the ways glancing at the code I'm responsible for, sweating profusely

  • When I read Excel Copilot, I thought "they finally added a chatbot that lets you generate a spreadsheet/range/table processing a datasource. Like "copilot, create a table that aggregates prices by category from table xyz".

    To which I was like "Ok, maybe that could be useful to some of the many non-technical excel users." I wasn't prepared for whatever this is.

    I mean with vibe-coding/excelling? you eventually get something that can run deterministically.

    Are we... are we gonna start seeing terminally AI-pilled bozos implementing gacha mechanics in data pipelines?

  • the model was supposed to be trained solely on his own art

    much simpler models are practically impossible to train without an existing model to build upon. With GenAI it's safe to assume that training that base model included large scale scraping without consent

  • "The Camp of the Saints is a 1973 French dystopian fiction novel by author and explorer Jean Raspail. A speculative fictional account, it depicts the destruction of Western civilization through Third World mass immigration to France and the Western world."

    More of a train whistle than a dog whistle this one.
