Defenders have threat modeling on their side. With access to source code and design docs, configs, infra, actual requirements and ability to redesign / choose the architecture and …

The real world use cases for LLM poisoning is to attack places where those models are used via API on the backend, for data classification and fuzzy logic tasks (like a security in…

CrowdStrike does this trick where it replaces the file (being transferred over a network socket) with zeroes if it matches the malware signature. Assuming that these are the malwar…

It's heartwarming to believe in the "family" narrative some companies promote, but it's important to remain pragmatic. This narrative is just a motivational tool to encourage emplo…

I might be misunderstanding, but from Andrew's Linkedin it looks like he wasn't a security researcher at MS, he was actually the person responsible for translating between security…

For the MS size entities, the risk calculation is way more complicated. The 1:1 between cost of mitigation vs cost of exploitation only applies to opportunistic attacks, really. At…

Well, because as a security person I can only evaluate his actions from the point of security. Evaluating actions of MS business leadership is beyond my expertise. I highly doubt t…

I work in infosec, and this sounds like a communication failure on the whistleblower's part. Contrary to what many people believe, the profits should be prioritized over security f…

At this point you should just leave this dumpster fire of an organization and find a more reasonable place to work. I can't relate to the people who keep inventing atrocious workar…

Allow the eIDAS certificates, but limit them to the country code TLDs to match the jurisdiction of the certificate issuer.

You can't block a browser at the DNS level.

No, there is no confusion here at all (for a Python developer). I would consider it a code smell though as the whole problem is completely avoidable by better naming. By the way, t…

There also are programmers who are aware of much more complicated things being done in sister projects, like JVM and JS runtimes in this case.

In my experience Bing chat and phind are useless. But perplexity.ai and GPT4 are amazing. GPT-3.5 and Cloude-instant (available through poe.com) are cool as well, even though they …

Yeah, but Reset the chat between your questions. EDIT: Also, this doesn't seem convincing: "I am not as advanced as PaLM 1, but I am learning new things every day. I hope that one …

It seems that Bard's version is only specified in the prompt, and it doesn't have a strong sense of identity. For me it's pretty reliable: 1. ask it what PaLM 2 is (to pollute the …

ChatGPT was the same last year, but since ClosedAI added some kind of magic (fine-tuning or just embeddings auto-injection) so that models can somewhat describe themselves.

It's a language model, FFS. Ask it whether it uses PaLM 1 and it will confirm it as well.

Not even close. I'd prefer local WizardLM/Vicuna to this Artificial Idiot. The funniest to me is that one of the examples they suggest you try is asking questions about google/jax …

They also said they are removing the waitlist, but it's still there. EDIT: The waitlist is removed, but the rollout takes some time.

> The problem is, guys with guns will come to your door, beat you with a wrench, and put you in jail. Counterpoint: guns, doors, wrenches and jails are tools as well. So, I don't b…

As a data point I'm getting >3 tokens per second for 30b model (q5_1 quantization) and >1 token per second for 60b model (q5_1 as well) on M1 Max. This is good enough for my usecas…

You can't right now. Devs are working on instructions for porting other models, but they're not ready yet. The point of MLC is that it supports pretty much all GPU backends out the…
