The hack is actively run by an entity. The virus is completely autonomous and replicating. Add in the capability of adding zero day capabilities to it, polymorphism, etc and your pretty much fucked

Air gapped networks might push the models to write computer viruses in order to bridge the gap. This is potentially very dangerous IMHO

Re:OpenAI Says It Will Not Release Newest A.I. Model Over Safety Concerns

Finally I start to see what will save the situation: you can only advance AI up to your highest level of intelligence, after that you start losing control and thus cannot reliably advance. That’s the mechanism that will make AI development viable. It won’t be improving exponentially, instead it will improve at the rate our intelligence can. This is both reassuring and a very good example of how co-evolution works. Expect an s-curve soon, but also this is the moment where we as humanity will start benefiting.

Ethics matter a lot, you can do whatever you want and be considered a very bad human being as a result. The result matters, but it also matters the discrepancy between what you do and what you claim you do. Bruteforce != ai did it. And that’s fact, no matter how much river you cry me

Ruining a lifetime worth of research effort, passing bruteforce as achievement, thus lying, just to appear first in position, is something to be ashamed of IMO.

They took a lifetime of research effort, threw millions of dollars of compute at it and claimed their AI solved a MPP, and they did all this just to be the first to claim the prize. Once you knew the direction, given the new insights on the subject, with all that compute you could probably have just bruteforced your way to a solution, and thousands of agents are not the same thing as “our model came out with a solution on its own”. This is pure greediness, and require at least some apologies to the involved researchers and to the whole community for showing such bad ethics and behaviour

OpenAI should just apologize for having been too greedy. That’s it, as simple as it gets. The fact that it never will is the biggest red flag.

on Tuesday July 07, 2026 @07:36AM (#48816322)
The problem is that the more AI eats labor, the more you can hike the costs until you pretty much can match the salary of the workers you replaced, with some margin, enough for the user to accept the cost. That’s what will happen in the next decade IMHO. Real cost = base expense + what user accepts to pay

I think we should start having ai versions like beta ora alpha versions and then consolidate them into human made versions with time, at least one is free to stay safe or on the bleeding edge as one likes and we all get a win-win best-of-all-worlds situation (hopefully)

Re:C array types are weird

int x[n] and int *x are very different things when it comes to defining memory layout tho. In one case you end up with n int sized slots of memory, in the second with one register sized slot. That makes all the difference when defining structs for example.
Re:Quantum Computers Are Not a Threat to 128-Bit Symmetric Keys
on Tuesday April 21, 2026 @02:12PM (#47852331)
I get what he’s saying, but, doesn’t he compare classical speed up of parallelizing 64 bit key space on 2^16 cpus with parallelizing 128 bits key space on QCs? It’s true that sqrt (2^128/2^16) = 2^56 and that 56 >> 48, but in one case you are attacking a 64 bits key space and in the other a 128! If you parallelize 2^128 on 2^16 CPUs you get 128-16=112 bits of key space per cpu which is much bigger than 56! No?
Edit: I mean, I get the point is to prove that 2^128 on QC is not the same as 2^64 on CC but it’s still a lot less to search. If a paper came out with that big of a key space reduction AES would be considered broken IMO

Re:Cosmologically Unique IDs
on Thursday February 19, 2026 @03:20AM (#47071264)
The random uuid selection is far superior because of lifespan, you can only have so many functioning devices at the same time, and on the contrary to tree-based uuids once a device is decommissioned the uuid can be reclaimed. Practically though it would probably be a mixed algorithm where positioning would give the id root and the rest is selected randomly
