you know most password managers have open sockets, or other channels to other local processes to interact with and allow stealing entries?

you know most tools like gcloud, bitwarden, etc store auth keys just in dotfiles too?

Local compromise is KO now, and we can't do shit on platforms like MacOs didn't research Linux recently

Hope this virus will be smart enough to understand that at least for brief amount of time its existence strictly relies on humans maintaining and developing physical infrastructure and decide to be only non-lethal parasite on our society.

For brief time ...

We as Anthropic, OpenAI? We as US or China? We as humanity?

Again this about alignment and we in arms race. And all sides are playing with fire that can give first mover leverage or be burned to the ground.

But you can silently sneak into devs accounts, steal tokens/keys and run small agents on their budget in some stolen VMs. Small so it's not noticeable.

Basically a virus spreading agents of some operation.

It should be in scope of imagination with anyone with brief knowledge how bot nets are made and behave.

This is silly question, but is your family managing trust in you as lone guy - cousin, father, brother - having potentially access to all their emails?

I feel that I more trust some corpo (Google, etc) that one particular person.

I don't imagine setup where you can effictevely guarantee them full privacy.

We just got a bug in our app for this, you basically have to add `region=CA` when instantiating maps API, otherwise it defaults to something hmm, else (some says US, but in EU we clearly see Ontario, so there is some geoguessing or other mechanism behind)

That's besides point, the point is that classical software bugs are contained and we have process and understanding allowing us to discover them, triqge and fix. For AI based sw you can guess and try another prompt.

On mobile you're welcomed with following text

> The world railway map

There is also something about train routes, but these messages are conflicting... also you don't immediately see explanation that it is curated d that's why people complain about missing routes.

Really hard to understand purpose when visiting first time.

No but those have less or no guards against it - so _we the society_ ;) stand and try guard them.

Rest of us have some chance to stand against persuasion.
