    I'm also curious if they used Mythos. Google definitely had access to it via Project Glasswing. However, your logic doesn't hold. That sentence only tells us they were using multip…

    Yes but parent was saying use passphrases, which is the same, just more like "correct horse battery staple". Parent then correctly pointed out there are a large number of sites tha…

    I built a news aggregator that pulls in hundreds of RSS feeds and uses multiple large language models to synthesize daily briefs. There's also Tech and Finance editions, plus local…

    I hear you on IP law, but how it applies to AI training is far from settled. I don't believe we should have software patents, and I am highly skeptical of the US copyright system i…

    "Amazon's CEO knew what he was doing" is not a fact. That's speculation. When it comes to highly technical, fast moving developments like frontier AI and blue team / red team persp…

    Gboard hasn't been updated in 4 years and as a result the UI doesn't always display properly. It's especially jarring on iOS 26. It doesn't fit into the OS keyboard target area pro…

    I’m struggling with the utility of this logic. The argument seems to be "because malware can intercept /proc output, any tool relying on it is inherently unreliable." While that’s …
