OK. I understand how you misunderstand the issue better now. You haven't thought about how time works. Is knowing meant fixing and deploying those fixes immediately then the advantage would go to the guys guys. It takes time to implement fixes and test them. Even if the fix was immediate there is a propagation issue. Patches don't roll out immediately and the landscape is huge. A vulnerability in an older version will not be treated as a priority. Sometimes patches don't make their way to production at all. Knowing doesn't fix the problem it only exposes it. Give all of this some more thought. You seem at least smart enough to see what you are missing as you perform further analysis if you do.

I get that you don't know very much about the situation and feel qualified to comment on Slashdot as though you are an expert anyway. It has been the Slashdot way for the decades I have been here. However your speculation, as indicated by your use of words like probably, give you away. While it is obviously true that *some* of these vulnerabilities are known to *some* bad actors, it is equally obvious to anyone who stops to think and be honest with themselves for even a short time that *all* of these were not known to *all* of them. Let that sink in. Now add to that the fact that *many* of these were not known to *anyone* and perhaps you can start to get a small grasp on the gravity of the change in landscape and it's danger. Claiming there is no danger and it is all just hype is so absurd I can't even think of words that express exactly how absurd.

So you believe that Mythos hasn't been finding vulnerabilities that have existed in code for years, and in some cases decades? Or is it that you just don't think that bad actors who have access to this information before the code has been patched and the fixes have propagated throughout the systems represents a danger? Conspiracies exist, but everything isn't a conspiracy. If you had actually done any research at all you would know how ridiculous you are to claim that AI models are not dangerous, and becoming more so exponentially, is absurd.

You didn't seem to understand that you are making my point. The claim from the FCC is a variation of "won't somebody think of the children" to wit "won't somebody think of the scam victims", but of course, as we both agree, this isn't about that at all. That is the whole point. Do they to keep up.

The US constitution wasn't ratified until 1788 so Adams and Washington would have been approximately 52 and 56, at a time when the average life expectancy was much lower. Most people would consider them to be old even by today's standards. I am less than a 5 years older than they were at the time, and I can 100% confirm that I am an old man.
