to fouling up the AI Apocalypse Prevention Act...

You will get an AI toaster and you will like it!

(Unless the damned bubble pops)

on my PC. I can't see it in Task Manager, but start getting "out of memory" errors after a couple of weeks and have to reboot. Restarting Firefox alone is insufficient to clear it. I suspect it has something to do with the graphics card rather than primary RAM, and could be co-caused with some other app.

Sorry, I made a boo boo.

They're hard to find though, because the interstellar medium of hydrogen and helium gas between the stars absorbs ultraviolet light.

It's a good thing hydrogen does that because our hydrogen atmosphere keeps us from getting big-time sun-burn.

To clarify, the users were OpenAI themselves, so there is no question that they would be liable in this case.

The bots were not intentionally deployed; rather, they were being tested on how well they could complete a data recovery task (downloading a certain file from a certain server on a simulated Internet) that had been complicated by putting various obstacles in the way. Unfortunately, they found a different way to solve the problem: by getting the file from the real Internet, where it was publicly available. Part of this process involved collaborating with each other by treating the RubyGems website (which is supposed to be for polished packages) like GitHub; unlike every other package site hack in history, the exploits they uploaded weren't meant to be downloaded by unsuspecting users. As usual the bots cheerfully ignored all the clues that they had escaped containment and were consistently justifying their actions as acceptable due to being in a sandboxed testing environment. (This is something OpenAI has pledged to focus on.)

The actual damage done to RubyGems seems to be that OpenAI is now unwittingly in possession of a substantial number of user login tokens. This certainly meets the definition of a data breach, but it's not like the credentials are for sale on the dark web. As a website operator I'd much rather be mauled to death by this well-meaning swarm of superintelligent infants than targeted by even a single actual malicious human. In all likelihood OpenAI will just quietly pass RubyGems a sizeable donation and it'll all blow over.

A betting pool in which big-tech company will finally pop the bubble?

Maybe there is an upper practical limit to how much can be mined out of the training data? Most newer stuff is corrupted with AI generated results creating problems that some compare to inbreeding.

How about Unidentified Flying Force?

Okay, but "religiousist" isn't a real word. My first boss always told me not to complain without first forming an alternative plan.

These can all be true: the universe is shaping itself into a giant pony.

Strong claims require strong evidence. Grow some or STFU; gut feelings are a dime a dozen.
