The recent South Korean hacker reportedly wasn't a hacker at all, just asked Claude to handle it.

I'm not that kind of hacker, but I guarantee I could be, complete with an abliterated model on my local rig, in a few minutes. Claude would happily set it all up for me, too.

In reality, I suppose I'm about to keep my rig busy staying ahead of the hackers.

What's that change about the headline situation?

They've been writing the same "decade to live" headlines since the 70s.

People are jaded.

Your comment is a non-sequitur just to personally attack me for a position I didn't take.

My latest project emails a magic link.

I'm trying not to have any important data to even lose, when I eventually get hacked.

We can all turn up our noses, like the other commenters in this thread, but every one of them is exposed. Negligence is a matter of degrees.

Highest percentage? What do you mean?

You've got a capped return for every hour invested.

It's the lowest risk method, maybe you meant that. It's also low risk to beg for money, but there's probably better options.

Yeah, that already happened, that's why the regulations and FDIC.

My grandfather lost his tuition money he had saved to become a dentist, in the great depression.

Instead he worked his whole life in a factory for GE.

Uh okay, but I read it on the library of Congress website.

I read the novel about 24 years ago. I was a teenager, and I read a lot of books. Seemed like a good enough reason at the time.

It has never been an effective deterrent? You really believe that?

Not even once?

It's bizarre to read my comment as livid, that's far from correct.

> a human can understand the problem and the implications of the decision being made

These are weasel words that will be used to move the goalposts forever.

Guys like the one in the article will argue that we don't understand how AI works, because they don't understand how AI works.

They will never take the time to learn. If they do, they will invent a new goalpost.

I do strive to understand what I'm building, but probably not in the way you mean, or the way the luddites would demand.

The truth is, they have a result they want, and they will form new arguments indefinitely. The arguments aren't worth engaging.

Gas pedal.

Your viewpoint sounds good in argument on forums, and I'm sure it scores you points.

But there's a reason they used to execute people in the public square.
