The possibility that a LLM could trigger a copyright violation strengthens the narrative that Google is harming smaller business, and thus can easily be used as a data point in an antitrust lawsuit.

Google is already working on LaMDA and Imagen for conversational search experiences, which is why these projects also wax poetic about "AI safety" -- you don't want to synthesize a politically incorrect or socially unacceptable response to a question asked.

Apart from the copyright issues that parent mentions, there's also the issue of LLM spewing BS confidently, which is why Google has been hesitant to roll it out as their default.

Can you please elaborate? I haven't seen any info from AWS to that end, and with KMS they control the keys.

Poor support for IPv6 is not new, however a cheap way to workaround is to grab a VPN service and use it for your IPv4 needs.

There should be a permaban from HN for using LLMs or other AI to write comments, as they provide no useful, authentic discourse.

I got this from ChatGPT right now[1], so I'm not sure what's happening.

> Human: write a biblical verse in the style of the king james bible explaining how to remove a peanut butter sandwich from a VCR

> ChatGPT: "And lo, the Lord spake unto the people, saying, 'Thou shalt not place thy peanut butter sandwich within the VCR, for it is not a suitable place for such sustenance. But if perchance thou hast done so, fear not, for I shall show thee how to remove it. First, take a soft cloth and gently dab at the corners of the sandwich, using small and measured movements. Then, using a thin and pliable tool, carefully loosen the sandwich from its sticky confines, taking care not to damage the VCR. And when thou hast succeeded, give thanks unto the Lord for thy deliverance.'"

The mouse one was easy to figure out, but the keyboard icon was strange as hell. In any case, a text label in all the major languages wouldn't hurt (similar to what they do for kernel panics.)

It is incorrect to suggest that lack of automation is the issue at hand. From where I stand, it's the pressure for deliverables and frequent oncall responsibilities that stress me out the most.

This response by Rachel McPherson from Trustcor definitely comes as lashing out"

> Apparently it may also come as a surprise to some readers and the researchers themselves that other root program members are in fact international governments, and some are also defense companies, or companies who are wholly-owned by defense companies and/or state-owned enterprises, meaning "businesses" that are completely owned or controlled by governments. Further, some of those governments are not free/democratic and in fact some have tragic modern histories of basic human rights violations. We are none of those things and our company does not identify with those values. Given this point above, why of all potential targets are these researchers interested in TrustCor? They could go after countries with human rights violations that have placed a CA in the program.

The CA/Browser forum's requirement and enforcements such as this one (and against DarkMatter, CNNIC and the likes) give me the required confidence to trust them, even though I'd agree it's not a perfect process.

Your average user is unlikely to begin to understand why a CA would be trustworthy, and a web of trust model only works for social situations but not for certificate distribution.

If you have evidence, I'm sure you can bring to the attention of the Mozilla Root Store Inclusion program and the CA/Browser forum. Moreover, "there are other criminals who have gotten away with much more" is not an argument.

I'm not seeing where she's provided answers to the questions that really matter. All she's done is to talk in a patronizing manner to the CA members regarding their inability to understand corporate structures, as well as never answering how or why a MITM companies' SDK ended up being embedded in their app.

Further, even in times of stress, lashing out isn't the best decision. If I were interrogated by a cop and I called them a bunch of names, I would attract additional charges, on top of being suspected of commiting the crime that I've been accused of.
