Yes but we’re also more mastodon less bluesky. If a bluesky-esque clone of Reddit comes along with better UX and paving over the issues of federation then it will win, the way Bluesky has beaten out Mastodon as the Twit alternate

Affinity is great

It is my understanding that the fundamental architecture (the general purpose transformer) is identical between the “AI” used by Black Rock and by OpenAI

If you have some evidence to the contrary I’d always appreciate the chance to learn.

But the transformer based architecture is fundamentally flawed: it will always hallucinate.

The “AI” being used by big corporations is still fundamentally an LLM and has all the flaws of an LLM. It’s not a hot wheels car vs a tank, it’s a hot wheels car vs a $2 billion RC car

I’m having an aneurysm trying to understand what’s being said here, can anyone explain?

Zoom ai transcriptions also make things up.

That’s the point. They’re hallucination engines. They pattern match and fill holes by design. It doesn’t matter if the match isn’t perfect, it will patch it over with nonsense instead.

The vote is today, the propaganda war has been ongoing for years

The original community was namenerds and digging through the original poster’s submission history I’m seeing some pretty bad poetry, 90 day fiance content and grieving the death of their parents: all spread out across the past year.

… I don’t think it’s a shit post.

Not necessarily the same hacker.

There’s never certainty when talking about hackers…

That’s verbatim the content of the email and the email hack does not appear to be malicious (unlike the ddos or the password breach)

It’s more likely that this is 3 different groups than it is a single group.

This guy is outing the archive for terrible security posture by bringing attention to it because they received disclosures and did not fix them.

Don’t get shit twisted - he’s the hero here. IA fucked up and has been vulnerable to manipulation by any number of corporate or national actors this entire time.

Let me take the tag off my bird then snap it’s wings back together

Note that a TikTok link is un-cleanable. It will always trace back to you. Do not ever share TikTok links unless you’re willing to expose your identity to the person you’re sharing with.

Even then those are bad cleaning instructions…

Exactly.

Ultimately I’m pro passkey but when it comes to password managers: if the hash of your vault is easy to crack you’ve fucked up big time. There shouldn’t be any way to crack that key with current tech before the sun explodes because you should be using a high entropy passphrase.

Never forget that technologically speaking you’re nothing like the average user. Only 1 in 3 users use password managers. Most people just remember 1 password and use it everywhere (or some other similarly weak setup).

Not remembering passwords is a huge boon for most users, and passkeys are a very simple and secure way of handling it.

Passkeys are an ancient authentication setup, have always been better than passwords and are finally getting traction.

You can share passwords without the server seeing them. Many managers don’t but there’s nothing infeasible there. You just have a password to unlock the manager. Done.
