Because filtering the training data is so much harder than just having them swim through the internet swallowing everything, like whales eating krill.

And that is the entire problem with all the LLVM based systems. The moment any bad data is used in training the network, the bad data is in there forever and can not be "forgotten", simply suppressed via specific ruleset.

OK, ask the LLM to create some known exploits. If you're agentic, you can have it submit the patch automatically. Then if the kernel team is sufficiently agentic, they can approve the patch automatically and get it integrated.

I hope we NEVER get there. The last thing you want to do is let automated systems automate their own solutions that are automatically pushed out without any human overview and testing. You will suddenly wake up one day to "your" system farming crypto tokens for some random wallet somewhere....

Yep, because mine are all segregated onto their own VLAN (well, more specifically 1 of either 2 VLANs depending on if an internet connection is even needed or not to control the devices). I then have my pFsense edge router denying access to many things using pfSense-ng (which is sort of like pihole, but on steroids as it not only works on the DNS lookup info, but also applies active firewall rules to block the outgoing and incoming traffic from both the DNS names but also the IP's so that a piece of software can't bypass a pihole like device by simply coding in IP addresses)...

I have never had my debit card compromised. Ever. The fact that it's a direct line is what makes it not usable to buy things online, etc (generally). But it's very nice to use in person - I like that when I spend money, I'm actually spending it and not creating debt. (Don't get me wrong, I always pay off my credit card bills every month, which are not trivial sums .. but I'm only using them because they're the only things you can use online.)

Credit cards, on the other hand - we all pay for the insurance. It's not really the banks problem, its a problem that you have protection for because you pay for it.

"An opt-out setting that quietly ships settings data off-device is exactly the sort of thing that adds to administrators' workloads rather than lightening them."

Fine, but there's *tons* of them. This is a drip in an ocean. The opposite, settings you need to turn on are also fucking huge depending on the corperate environment it's used in. I mean, fiddling over one setting on a product with a user base as huge and diverse as Windows is nitpicking imo.

Places that have to deal with this are setup to be proactive about the larger problem set.
