What if I told you nothing new is happening? Except casuals are noticing what the industry knew and saw for decades?

Script kiddies aren't new. Metasploit has been around literally decades. vx-underground existed for years, not to mention older open source projects that collect all known malware dev tools. APTs have been pwning stuff, script kiddies have been doing their thing. Nothing significant has changed for anyone in the know.

Just because LLMs automated some offensive stuff doesn't mean there's gonna be new magic collapse of society.

Your first sentence would lead one to believe that you have some substantial evidence to demonstrate the ignorance and falsehood you identified. It's impressive that you are regurgitating the same formulaic-template set of cliches that boil down to "X is so complex bro, how can you even?".

Note that I never claimed aviation relies on AI right now, most of the Autopilot systems are deterministic automation systems, but the original point stands regardless.

Rent seeking has a specific definition and it fits here. When Autopilot does almost all the critical work needed (besides announcing frivolous stuff in carbon-based voice), and you have mandatory seats for humans to babysit the Autopilot mainly to satisfy some law, the term fits.

I am not convinced humans can do much better in "disasters" than Autopilot, despite the emotional stories to the contrary (survivorship bias is one hell of a drug).

Aviation is different because their rent-seeking is enforced by the required legal hedging. I'm not sure the same incentive structure exists in the software side of things.

In other words, we might need to find some hobbies.

> I’m getting so many 1Password prompts for agents pulling env variables out of it and with very little context of what is being accessed by who

This is a one-sentence horror story. I almost can't believe someone would let this happen, unless the 1Password account is not important (highly unlikely).

So, basically inconsequential stuff only the juvenile should worry about? Agreed.

Appealing to complexity is always fun. Just throwing "a lot" in there for good measure and you won't have to think about practical security implications.

> did you not expect this conversation to go into training or at least review?

Use it for training/review (RLHF, whatever) and "we load the whole thread, not the specific response or surrounding few prompts, and store it for 5 years" seem completely different things. It's not obvious why being tech savvy would automatically make one aware that the 2nd version is happening.

Who actually cares? Isn't the whole premise of the AI revolution just gorging ourselves with other people's data so we can have AGI? I was under the impression that we have accepted this sacrifice with OAI and friends leading the way.

The trick to a top HN comment is to basically reflexively react to the title with no regard for the substance of the relevant article. Amusingly, pointing out this self-evident truth is itself frowned upon and more offensive than the described trick, according to the sacred text.

I am not sure you're disagreeing with the parent comment. Both your comments boil down to the same conclusion, and your "well actually, reality is so complex, more at 10" reply is just a rehash of the comment's main premise, ignoring the dramatic opening in the reply.
