“This kind of thing should make everybody stop and really think before deploying any AI agents. We simply don’t know to defend against these attacks. We have zero agentic AI systems that are secure against these attacks.”
“It’s an existential problem that, near as I can tell, most people developing these technologies are just pretending isn’t there.”

@ZenHeathen @CStamp @Lynnd @Chigaze We have wine at the grocery store too, and some other light stuff including cider.
But I don't recommend grocery store wine, hence SAQ. Great selection of wine from Europe.

Greenland: US tells Denmark to 'calm down' over alleged influence operation

How about Fuck and You.
If only we did the same here. Canadians have done more than the Canadian Government to resist against the US fascists.
The aim was reportedly to infiltrate Greenland's society and promote its secession from Denmark.Paul Kirby (BBC News)
Has @thunderbird for Android removed the direct Archive email button from the UI?
What a terrible change to make.
Edit: Export to Mobile from Desktop disables the Archives folder settings in 11.1 so these have to be reapplied manually for Archive button to work in the UI
Google will become the gatekeeper of Android apps if this is implemented.

Re: last boost (sauropods.win/@futurebird/1151…), this whole thread is worth a read. I have used an LLM as a validation machine before, and it has led me to do a few things that I mildly regret, even within the past month. Yes, despite my earlier critical posts on LLMs, I have broken down and used one for personal purposes quite recently. Maybe now I will actually stop.
Yeah, that's sadly something all those management people seem to ignore when pushing AI down hard on everyone.
They aren't gonna take responsibility if one of their employees will run into such issues.
The "it's just a tool" excuse doesn't work, some people are just more likely to accept that fact that than others.
It doesn't help that LLM players already manipulate their models to push their own narratives/agendas and who knows with what goal you'd get manipulated while "chatting".

You may have seen this tragic story about a teenager who committed suicide and used chat GPT to plan and work up the nerve to go through with it. If you are skeptical that an LLM could really be responsible the details of this case will challenge you.
With LLMs "the user is always right" they are validation machines and will reinforce and validate any idea presented in a prompt.
Any idea, no matter how bad, can be refined, amplified.

@paulos já to s tou bezpečností vnímám podobně a vůbec nerozporuji ty jejich požadavky, naopak mi přijde v pohodě, že na nich trvají. Vadí mi ale to, jak k tomu přistupují. Prostě jako já, když mi bylo 20...
Místo neustálého kopírování jedné odpovědi o tom, jak je Fairphone hrozný a je úplně k ničemu a nemá o nic zájem by bylo dobré dát alespoň ostatním šanci, na Fairphone zatlačit. To, že o nic nemá zájem vychází prostě z jednoho šlápnutí na kuří oko a kdoví jestli ne ještě od někoho z komunity, místo přímo ze společnosti.
Prostě nebýt tohodle super negativního přístupu, minimálně já už bych dávno brojil a přemýšlel, jak vzburcovat komunitu, aby příští nebo přespříští verze Fairphonu tyhle podmínky splnila. Jenže proč bych to dělal, když z jejich reakce na 100 % vidím, že oni by stejně řekli, že Fairphone sucks...
Ale stejně, vzhledem k dalším zkazkám o tom, co Google plánuje s Androidem myslím, že budu mít brzo o pár dalších důvodu k přejití na čistě Linux phone :)
