Sounds about right.

What? The company that was built on stealing information to train its models wants people to willingly give it their information to train their models??

Shocking.

AI guardrails are meant only to be a bare minimum effort to convince the public they are "trying"... they WANT them circumvented.

Par for the course

Seems like just about every other headline out of the UK these days has to do with them mulling over making somebody do something.

Sounds about right. Just what I would expect from such a well-run organization...

Yikes...

Some Mullvad VPN customers tunnel for exit after co-founder donates millions to populist party

Re: Sad but not surprising

Also sad and not surprising is how gullible and easily manipulated the general public are, trained like monkeys to see EVERYTHING through a political lens and completely devoid of common sense.

Europe slaps AliExpress with €550 million fine for selling dodgy goods

Re: Buyer beware - NOT!

If you need your government to do all that for you, you've already lost.

Re: Cured Pork Perspective

Not sarcasm. Truth.

Natural consequences.

Re: AliExpress … selling dodgy goods

Europe isnt interested in encouraging their citizens to be smarter shoppers, or smarter anything for that matter. They only care about control. Of their citizens, and apparently those around the world.

Eurpoe......

SMH. So the unsmart people that bought the goods in the first place expecting high quality stuff bear no responsibility.

What is going on in that continent? Is there something in the water??

If you want Claude to speak nicely to you, try Hindi or Arabic

Thats not racist at all.

Musk promises purge after Grok Build caught sending entire repos to the cloud

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

AI customers are coming around to the idea that small is beautiful

Are they though?

This sounds like more cope than reality... perhaps in theory that is the case, but people dont really even understand what AI or how to best use it, so I doubt size even enters the equation. All they know is price.

Brown says AI make student brain no work good, teacher should help use it better

Ummm..... I think we all already knew that. Dont need some ivy league university study to tell me this, given I could've told them this a year ago...

Digital ID brain trust will meet behind closed doors as minister ducks cost questions

Re: Starmer is a traitor

Proof? Are you simply ignoring all of it arpund you? Or are you just too simple to see it?

The EU is a spineless and pointless organization. This decision surprises me zero.

Isnt that rich... A VP thinking humans are good at their jobs.

Boom. Mind blown.

Freedom isnt safe. But it IS worth the risks. Be better parents, humans, and citizens, and you wouldn't have the problems you have.

Except...

Difference being... Blackberries are infinitely more useful.

AI code accelerates production failures and spending, study finds

Surprise!

What? You mean that the classic universal truth that everything in software is a trade-off still holds true when AI is involved?

There are no magic bullets in software. Sorry kids. You've till have to put in the work to do things right or it will cost more in the future.

AMD says its $4K Ryzen AI Halo workstation practically pays for itself

I think AI actually makes humans act delusional and irrational. Its a giant pyramid scheme, and I'm completely over it.

You mean to say that the AI hype machine was.... lying???

I'm astonished.

OpenAI exec says company hopes to burn $50B of somebody else's money on compute this year

Somebody didnt pay attention in econ or history... but your commitment to mainstream media talking points is impressive.

Even a child can see this model is wholly unsustainable (and 1000% wasteful).

At this point, if investors are dumb enough to pour money into this bubble without any regard to history, they deserve what they get.

Even a child can see this model is wholly unsustainable (and a 1000% was

Yet another experiment proves it's too damn simple to poison large language models

That's alot of words, and simply proves the point of this article. People dont know anything about this tool they so willingly give so much credence and trust.

Normies using AI is no different than letting 10-year-old behind the wheel of a supercar with zero instruction.

Anthropic won't own MCP 'design flaw' putting 200K servers at risk, researchers say

What a surprise that an AI company would be dirty... after all, they only want to bring sunshine and rainbows to the world.

Claude is getting worse, according to Claude

Yes. Keep throwing money at it. It has to get better. Hahahahahahaha!

Yikes

What could possibly go wrong???!

Growing void between enterprise and frontier AI puts open weights models in the spotlight

All of AI is a giant proof of concept, and not a particularly good one, just one that a bunch of unthinking lemmings will pay big $ for just to degrade their own cognitive abilities.

Chatbots are great at manipulating people to buy stuff, Princeton boffins find

These people are not the brightest bulbs...

Its a disease, and it has no cure.

That number seems astronomically high.

Japan relaxes privacy laws to make itself the ‘easiest country to develop AI’

What could possibly go wrong? There cant possibly be any risk to dumping privacy to push a tech that nobody needs or wants...

AI slop got better, so now maintainers have more work

The models have gotten better.

But have they really??

If an AI agent screws up while running your business, there's nobody to sue

Start holding the AI companies responsible.

We have people using these agentic products without any knowledge of how to do it properly, or any knowledge of what the AI will do. While I dont typically fall into the category of holding a company responsible for how people use their products, AI agents are a different beast. Until these companies start deploying these products responsibly, they should shoulder that burden.

Hilarious.

'AI brain fry' affects employees managing too many agents

Of course! It makes perfect sense that someone who intended to improve software quality would be smitten by something that creates the lowest quality software imaginable.
