They can do this in people, too, not just LLMs. Imagine the mistakes that can be made by changing one fact but not reconfiguring the whole network. Thhese guys remind me of when I …

Feeling left out?

That's 66 bits of entropy. With a quantum computer having 66 logical (error corrected) qubits, the pass phrase can be cracked in under a day. That's not too far off, maybe a few ye…

get it from the horse's mouth, as they say... instead of baselessly pontificating on HN and not understanding the diff between algorithm and implementation

"even if these attacks aren't feasible against current algorithms" lol, ok, if you say so....

2048 words in 6 positions is simply not enough entropy for the NSA's encryption cracking infrastructure. If it is worth it they'll crack it. The NSA does not use a single ASIC crac…

not the algorithm. the various implementations of it. evidence? ask a friend.

Why would they have Suite A then?

You can't trust what sama says. Period. He's shown his willingness to deceive for gain. He deleted the codex model because it was better than the text model and only way to explain…

The worst thing about HN (and it does reflect badly on YC as a whole, at least for me) is how they enable people to act in seemingly passive aggressive ways. Instead of stating dis…

The propaganda against encryption is in full swing. My expectation is that all NSA CNSA[1] encryption standards are backdoored at the implementation level (by the NSA who uses Suit…

You just got validated. Does that mean you're desperate? or anxious? or even sick in the head?

But the person is complaining about people complaining. I find it ironic.

Says a person who is online...

I take that back I'm suyrprised. HN crowd is mostly very pedestrian.

Yes. I'm just surprised at the downvotes. Hmm. We're talking about jobs, right? Everyone's job is very much at risk unless people adapt to a P2P economy with humans and AIs in it, …

The sky is falling... etc. It is true, however, that AI is going to reduce a team of 10 to 1, regardless of what field they're in. One day soon we will see companies run by an AI e…

Bitcoin is based against the wisdom that "all that glitters is not gold." It abuses the "shiny object" trigger in our animal brain. The minute it looks shiny, its price goes up, an…

Altman is v2.0 of Zuckerberg, with 1000X more parameters. I'm worried about v3.0

Weird coincidence, I tweeted roghly the same idea two weeks ago: https://twitter.com/marcfawzi/status/1636115903959158785 Obviously, it's a no-brainer idea at a high level. The dev…

AI is not a weapon. It's ultimately a synthetic brain running inside a machine. It can be used for good, or it can be mounted on a killer drone with deadly lasers. If you use it fo…

Meanwhile, experiments to create Synthetic Life, including novel basis for life and possibly new viruses as a lab exercise (that may leak like the GoF virus did in Wuhan) proceed w…
