I only visit twitter when I run out of lemmy and mastodon and I'm still not sleepy enough but can't be arsed to read a book.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

seemingly yet more chatgpt jailbreaks just by providing input that barrierbreaks some n times, and then readily provides details
y'know, if I were the one making safety nets for these systems, I'd make them return such kind of results (or other typical honeypot type behaviour). and it's possible that that's what oai did. but it seems extremely unlikely that that's what they did, because it goes again the bayfucker gottagofast philosophy (and, frankly, against the level of competence I've seen displayed in the genml space overall)
presently:
(you can turn it off but in typical fashion: sneaky new setting, default-on, way to make it turn off is hidden in settings instead of a direct “no fuck this” button. same shit twitter and fb pulled for years)
double kicker is that the opt-out settings have been been in "No, do not use my data" for months

wait what’s the fucking point of nitro again? is it seriously just the ability to use more annoying reactions and upload slightly larger attachments?

wait what’s the fucking point of nitro again?
Remember when people used to smugly say 'unless you pay for it, you are the product' turns out you always are the product!
rabbit data breach: all r1 responses ever given can be downloaded
AI continues to be going great...
we have internal confirmation that the rabbit team is aware of this leaking of api keys and have chosen to ignore it. the api keys continue to be valid as of writing.
but of course. rabbit’s done pretending they give a fuck now that their shit flopped (not that they gave much of a fuck to begin with)

rabbit has revoked the keys!
breaking every R1 still in service

Total losses estimated at $7.13
fucking amazing. like, I shouldn’t be surprised they deployed a bunch of embedded devices without a sensible way to rotate keys OTA, but it’s always fun to watch a circus act
and here I am building up a fucking pile of infra in advance of deployment of boards for exactly this reason
it's almost like, irunno, maybe you could say I've thought this through! only maybe tho. I'm not backed by decamillions+ vc dollaridoos, so who can tell whether I know what I'm doing, amirite
remember that Rabbit pivoted to this from NFTs
that's what makes it even better - from the "self-custody of keys!!!! your own credentials! v v v v v importants!" world, these dipshits still had no clue
just truly awe-inspiringly terrible
thought it was bad enough when the hackers got into my rabbithole, now this
