Thank you for balancing the parentheses. Cosmic order has been restored.

My saving element was nude hot yoga, at least until it scared everyone else off.

I didn't ever say Bing Copilot was used, so your comment makes no sense to me. I offered Bing Copilot as an illustration of a GPT-4 implementation that is able to overcome the age of the training data set, by incorporating search results in its context window. Bing Copilot is able to offer code solutions that pertain to APIs published *after* the GPT-4 model was trained, using this technique. The new API documentation doesn't have to be part of the model, it can still produce reasonable results by incorporating the context window.

The researchers seem to have used the same principle. They wouldn't have to incorporate the CVE into the training model itself, only the context window. If they were updating the GPT-4 training model itself, they would likely have said so in the description of their work. Instead, they used the phrase "by reading security advisories." The word "reading" does not lead one to believe that they updated the training data, but rather, that they used the existing, pretrained model to analyze the documents.

The CVE descriptions might be vague to humans, but more digestible to an LLM. I've seen this clearly illustrated by Google's NotebookLM. https://notebooklm.google.com/... With this tool, you can upload, say, a homeowner's insurance policy, and then ask the AI questions about the policy. That policy language is intentionally obtuse and difficult to read, but the LLM doesn't seem to have any difficulty with it.

I wonder - is this anti-Chinese propaganda then? https://www.youtube.com/result... (compliation of burning Chines EV's)

I like EV's but there seems to be a disconnect between your claims of European Luxury level design, the best battery technology, and those burny things.

Sounds almost like the Socialist Snow Plows the far right wants to get rid of.

I don't know if it is something actual or just propaganda, but on Youtube, there are a lot of Chinese EV's catching fire, with videos showing it.

The amount of energy stored in the batteries is pretty significant, and unless properly engineered, likes out of its container and gets burny. Just like say, the bad engineering on the old Ford Pinto that made it like to burn up.

My guess is that if the Chinese cars are going to be sold in the USA, they'll need to be heavily scrutinized and perhaps altered in order to pass our safety regulations.

Well then they can't have their story. And draining the battery that far is the petrofuel equivalent of running out of gas, and blaming the manufacturer.

Isn't it weird how electrical vehicles are affected by cold, but petrofueld are completely unaffected by it?

Tents and gas flames https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Of course, you can always build a fire under it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

All sarcasm aside, gasoline and diesel engines also have problems in the cold. So if an EV does, it's because of the cold, not some inherent issue with EV's.

If people don't like EV's for some reason, that's fine. But just like the hand wringing when an EV catches fire, Petrofueld vehicles catch fire every day, and no one bats an eye. https://www.youtube.com/watch?... https://www.youtube.com/watch?... https://www.youtube.com/watch?... https://www.youtube.com/watch?... A lot of energy in batteries, and hella energy in petrofuels, and they get spunky every once in a while.P And a big part of the fix for both, rather than starting fires under the crankcase, is very similar in each case. Plug the thing in. In cold places like Alaska, parking meters have electrical outlets, battery and crankcase heaters, and you plug 'em in and keep them warm. An EV the same, you can even keep it topped off plugged into an outlet at home.

You are right, and your answer does not conflict with mine.

Bing Copilot uses web searches to populate the context (assuming the web search can find the CVEs). This research used the API (or some other mechanism) to populate the context. Both have the same result. Neither approach requires the model itself to be current.

We call those Mall Queens. It is exceptionally obvious with so many of these trucks. Because using a truck for work leaves evidence.

Even my Jeep, while I have it detailed regularly, bears evidence of it's use. Mud, the occasional scratch that needs buffed out.

Pristine trailer hitches, no scratches on the chrome, and beds without scratches or dents, either, on the mall queens.

Having the pickup is a statement of their patriotism, and it must be shiny and polished, pristine as their pure heart and fealty.

I was really pissed when they quit making Ford Ranger trucks in the US, and even the Chevy S-10, once a compact truck, got bloated. After coming back, they are a midsized truck now. Which means that they are what a F350 used to be, in general.

This happens so often to vehicles due to marketing in large part - the 'ers. Bigger faster, wider and so on.

You might add something like the normal Jeeps to that mix. Some places, like where I live have pretty wild swings in weather, and there's a reason that our roads are busy with them. A bog standard Jeep Compass or the quirky Renegade is pretty inexpensive by today's standards, and will handle the swings.

For many, the Pick-um-up is a statement of patriotism. I kid you not. These folk find their expression of patriotism in that big pickup, and the prices have risen because of that. But there's trouble in the land of Jingo.

You can easily spend 150K on that shiny new thing.

It is a tad jarring to see someone in one of them who obviously doesn't spend much on clothing, grooming, or their teeth, hopping out of their 10 mpg pretend monster truck. Meanwhile, My Jeep Trailhawk version costs nowhere near as much, gets between 28 to 30 mpg fills up for a third of the cost - They obviously aren't the wealthiest demographic. And it goes places they can't. I even knew one guy some years back that had a daily driver of a Ford 350 with dually rears and a 5th wheel in the truck bed. He had no trailer, it was all patriotshow.

You'll see these truck parked outside of old junky mobile homes that were built a long time ago, and might be exhibiting proton decay at this point.

10 year loans is one of the ways they "afford" these things. My guess is they also use a credit card for every 140-200 dollar fill-up, depending on if it's gas or diesel. Low easy payments for the rest of their lives. Sorta. P But the prices have reached a point where the hillbilly struggles to make the payments on that 10 year mortgage, and what is the point of having a prtriotmobile for 10 years, when you need a new and bigger one every 4 years.

That's not a refutation. It's a rant.

In all your other posts, you've never refuted that Palestinians and Arabs started all 16 wars against Israel. You only said "That's what the State Department wants me to believe." That's not evidence or a supporting argument, it's conspiracy theory. (Conspiracy theories are something Fox News specializes in.)

You never disputed that Hamas has never recognized Israel's right to exist. Not even once. I guess that's OK with you, they apparently have a right to want to wipe out Israel, in your book.

You never acknowledged that Israel has a right to exist and to defend itself.

If you're so sure my points are PR BS, prove it. But there's a big problem for you, you can't. You only have your own talking points, and anything that strays from that, you dismiss as "Fox News PR." If you had an actual argument, you wouldn't be afraid to state it.

It depends on your definition of "working." Sure, a sandbox implementation is easy. Modifying your existing application in such a way that the added functionality works and is "right" is a lot harder. Yes, GitHub Copilot uses GPT-4 to modify your existing source code, updating it based on input prompts. It often generates code changes that are "almost" correct, but in nearly every case, I have to tweak it in some way, often before it will even compile.

Making a standalone bit of code isn't hard. Making it work in the context of something larger, isn't so easy.
