What sandbox? Their computers were linked to the INTERNET, hello? Again, what sandbox? Of course there should have been monitoring but, given that OpenAI gave their programs access to the internet, they are grossly negligent at best. They keep making the same mistake, so it's either not a mistake or they're dangerously incompetent. Possibly both.

The current massive influx of news against Flock cameras just seems bizarrely heavy-handed. It's everywhere, all the time, and seems like a manufactured crisis. Seriously? Don't we have anything else to worry about? Possibly the insane war in Iran, the insane President, inflation, the insane President, the Epstein files, the insane President, gas prices? Possibly the insane President? Maybe the living corpse of Mitch Connell? Possibly the insane President? I'm just waiting to hear he's decided to change his name to Super Intelligence, possibly "of America".

The story runs, "Idiot Military Nearly Starts WWIII". Don't try to blame this on LLMs. How were they possibly relying on a single unreliable source for their response?

This may come as a surprise, but oranges are not orange. They're green. They will turn orange if exposed to excessive heat. Since we've grown used to that in the U.S., oranges are usually treated to make them orange, in the same way that cheddar cheese is dyed to make it orange, in the same way that President Trump is dyed to distract you from his own disturbingly unhealthy color.

The phrase "pervert glasses" is delightful, but does anyone at all really buy into the idea that guys are following around the women of Walmart to video them? It's not impossible, I guess, but this can't be common, nor would you need expensive glasses for that when you have a cellphone. The phrase "We, as a society" is never going to end well, either. Don't try to coopt me into your vision of what everybody needs to do.

I get that kids can use AI to make cat-headed zebra movies, but what exactly does anyone need it for?

The AI was in an environment where it was given access to the Internet, which should not have happened in the first place. The article suggests that they think the problem was only that the AI wasn't safeguarding itself well enough, which they're going to attempt to fix by giving it new base instructions. In other words, they're still going to rely on the AI to do something it obviously can't, and are going to leave the original security holes in place.

We've seen these attempts for years and years, and now it seems the politicians are finally having some success at trying to collect everyone's personal information by claiming it's "for the children", now on the basis that "social media" is witchcraft^W addictive like heroin.

America needs to plant a moonbase first, and the problem is just getting enough petroleum there to fuel it. You know for certain that China is just going to run its moonbase on free solar energy, or what we call "Communist" energy, which is against American national security interests, but I'm sure President Trump has it well in hand and we will get our gold-plated Christian Nationalist Trump Moonbase as soon as he's finished prosecuting the vandals who tore up his beautiful American-blue painted reflecting pool, finished the ballroom, and erected the Arch d'Trumph.

Praise him and pass the collection plate! The bidding donations start at $1,000,000,000.

The aim of the game is to try to benefit U.S. billionaires. You WILL buy their inferior and overpriced products.

This sounds like some sort of weird joke, or possibly a Chuck Tingle work. I Fell In Love With A ChatBot (add bizarre obscenity).

You know, after World War II, the Soviet Union attempted to capture West Berlin by blockading it. They wound up giving way after an operation called "the Berlin Airlift", where the Allies dropped supplies into the city by parachute! Perhaps we could try that here.

Oh. We're the bad guys here? ...ummm. Shit.

Anyone? Is anyone prepared to drop humanitarian aid into Cuba?

You sound very much like you've fallen for the idea that "algorithms" are the very Devil's own addictive work.

The EC will now require books to be printed with the pages out of sequence, forcing you to "go to" the next specified page instead of reading pages in order. The existing design was too clearly addictive and might entrap young people (and some adults) into reading entire chapters at a time without considering the dire consequences.

Those kids will be prepared when 1980 rolls around again.
