There is a difference between leaking user accounts and passwords and getting your business destroyed overnight entirely. Imagine if an AI can infiltrate your SaaS database and delete your entire database and every single backup. The business is dead immediately.

Did that happen to a lot of companies during the log4shell fiasco? I'm sure some companies had their permissions misconfigured in a way such that a malicious actor who could execute code on their servers could also drop their database and delete their backups.

I don't know. But the point is that anyone who has access to this model might be able to do the same thing to any company or government.

I vote in local, state, and federal elections. I have volunteered with multiple campaigns and causes, and given substantial time/labor to the EFF. I have been harassed by Trump supporters while filming protests and other civic action. Please do not presume to know me. I get you’re angry but you’re swinging at the wrong person.

It wasn’t personal.

You weren’t the commenter and either way it’s an unproductive blame game that doesn’t fix anything or help anyone.

I’m sure the new model is a step above the old one but I can’t be the only person who’s getting tired of hearing about how every new iteration is going to spell doom/be a paradigm shift/change the entire tech industry etc. I would honestly go so far as to say the overhype is detrimental to actual measured adoption.

I’ve lost trust in anything they say.

The fear marketing is clearly intentional at this point.

Everybody remembers the fable of the boy who cried wolf and how he died at the end. Left out of the story is the multiple other villagers who died of starvation because their flock of sheep was eaten. So because they didn't want to feel like suckers. Tuning out completely because of the existence of false positives is not a good choice.

> how every new iteration is going to spell doom/be a paradigm shift/change the entire tech industry etc. It's much the dynamic between parents and a child. The child, with limited hindsight, almost zero insight and no ability to forecast, is annoyed by their parents. Nothing bad ever happens! Why won't parents stop being so worried all the time and make a fuss over nothing? The parents, which the child somewhat star…

Sure, if the parent's stock price soared if the child dies.
