Me too. It’s infuriating and unsafe. I don’t drive often, but when I do it’s out of the city where I’m unfamiliar and need a map. So I also stopped using Google Maps for driving. W…

And don’t hallucinate.

I’m surprised they think the AI generated rewrite is even copyrightable.

A tweet is not a ToS.

What? Yes they do take shortcuts and hacks. They change the tests case to make it pass. As the context gets longer it is less reliable at following earlier instructions. I literall…

The package management story on Linux is hideously bad. The next generation replacements are all over the place (do I use snaps? Flatpak?). No one is going to learn Nix if it means…

AI is a cancer on humanity

I’m not convinced LLMs can ever be secured, prompt injection isn’t going away since it’s a fundamental part of how an LLM works. Tokens in, tokens out.

I’m not exactly sure about ZKPs but for age verification the “proof” can come from the government but in such a way that the web service doesn’t know anything more than whether an …

Hilarious and frightening. I don’t want LLMs anywhere near anything remotely important. We’ve already had to remove a few dependencies from our projects because of CVEs caused by c…

I would not trust any of these. They are a security disaster, lacking even basic features for securing your device against tampering and hacking. There is a reason GrapheneOS is nu…

Linux doesn’t really rely on Linus for coding anymore…

Based on the absolute trash I usually get out of ChatGPT, Claude, etc, I wouldn’t say that it writes “working” code.

I don’t think there is a solution. It’s the way LLMs work at a fundamental level. It’s a similar reason why they can never be trusted to handle user input. They are probabilistic g…

I think it’s because the state is leaving the backend server running the LLM and output to the browser, where various attacks are possible to send requests out to the internet (eit…

Why the scare quotes? Graphene’s focus on security is legitimate and well founded. They are the only phone OS that is consistently safe from hacking by the likes of Cellebrite long…

I liked it when I was 17 but have soured on it later after re-reading. The only reason their libertarian revolution succeeds is because they have a centralised computer that secret…

If you use i3, you can switch to Sway.
