I've been telling women to keep copies of all the dick pics they get sent. Since you can tell by the characteristic noise of a cameras sensor which other pictures were taken with the same camera. All missing is a search engine capable of doing this. I feel with AI, we are 2-3 years away from people uploading a dick pic to AI and getting the social media profile of that person...

The military/infosec uses of this are not real time. You can wait 5 minutes for a drone strike.

Please stop indiscriminately murdering us with flying killdroids.

It’s just a hallucination, same idea as o3 claiming that it uses its laptop to mine Bitcoin: https://transluce.org/investigating-o3-truthfulness I doubt the model was trained on Street View, but even if it was, LLMs don’t retain any “memory” of how/when they were trained, so any element of truthfulness would be coincidental.

If it's trained on street view data it's not unlikely that the model can associate a particular piece of context to street view. For example, a picture can have telltale signs that street view content has, such as blurred faces and street signs, watermarks, etc. Even if it's not directly trained on street view data it has probably encountered street view content in it's training dataset.

I think the test which the OP performed (to pick a random street view and let it pinpoint it) would indicate that it has ingested some kind of information in this regard in a structured manner.

Good advice, though purpose-scoped devices are so common we have songs

There is not a secret super duper powerful military version of cutting edge consumer technologies. AI is catching everyone with their pants down. You have access to the most powerful computer intelligence on earth, the same ones the NSA and CIA have access to. It's a bizarre world.

If you're going to make such an assertive statement you should maybe backup that claim with some substance. Without such, it's akin to an atheist proudly proclaiming there is definitely no such thing as god.

Almost feels like you supposed that to sound bad.

Can you share some sources? I would be extremely surprised if such fine grained noise survives imagine compression to the extent that you could identify the source of an imagine despite changing lighting conditions, locations, exposure times, etc

Yeah but you also cant be off by 40km with your drone strike.

A 40km radius circle is far smaller than a 1000 km radius circle.

Once the guesser's made its attempt, it's more straightforward to either refute the guess entirely, or refine within a probable circle of error.

40km accuracy for something arbitrary is a decent starting point. I can normally get within a few meters within a couple of minutes of most images though.

For military uses, if the us army doesn't have a much more precise, purpose built model, already trained on both private data and whatever they could get from google and others, I'd be extremely surprised. They will not be using chatgpt for serious things like that. (... or at least I'd be sure about that a few months ago - maybe a bit less now)

We don’t have access to huge swaths of satellite imagery being collected to be able to create a specialized model.

A few companies do. It’s still expensive to get recent imagery.
