So you have nothing. Thanks for making that clear.

At the very least you need to select it and pay for it. Same as backups to some other cloud.

Hence I have zero compassion for whoever lost data here, they did it so themselves by being incompetent.

To be fair, cloud administration (as a customer) is harder than administration of your own on-prem systems. I think many do not understand that.

Backups and georedundancy are customer responsibility. And they get told that. Whoever lost data in this is incompetent and did it to themselves.

To be fair, there are a LOT of incompetent people out there and that is the reason why AWS tried recovery in the first place.

damn that's a lot of work. I prefer driving to ColdStone and getting a milkshake, but thank-you just the same.

we've not even seen a hint of AGI. I am sure the LLM's will get better and faster, but will they ever be intuitive ? They are already great at taking huge amounts of data and making direct connections. When they can include the mystery factor that is free-will matched with stupidity, we might have something to worry about. I am an old man now so I worry less for me than for my 14 year old nephew. Luckily he reads, and plays pen and paper RPG's.

So they stole that approach from other AI tools? Why am I not surprised?

To be fair, there are quite a few crazy people with money.

That "Nitro" stuff makes zero sense rationally. My guess is pure appeal to vanity.

And you know that, how? Oh, right, you are just lying.

And you believe they put exactly the fuel rods in there that they tell you? How quaint.

Yes. Will be interesting to watch. Unless the commercial LLM providers collapse from their bad business numbers first, which is entirely possible. The whole thing is nothing but a gigantic straw fire.

I expect that most of these were expected by the LLM assholes, but they did not care.

The desire for mountains of money is a mental illness. One of its characteristics is that no amount of money will ever be enough.

Why would they do that? The sandbox breakouts are clearly intentional.

I guess the wording is just more animism. "Deception" means it tries to create a certain perception while also having data that says this perception is not accurate. But that is just what the large commercial LLMs do. They always try to sound sure, for example, which is deceptive. I guess OpenAI means cases that humans find even worse than the usual stuff.

Obviously actual deception would require insight and intent and LLMs cannot have those.
