How do you bounce the system? How do you auto restart the service if it fails? At the end of the day, a lot of creds have to essentially be stored in plain text somewhere
And to be clear, to me production creds mean creds that live on the production system, not creds that give access to the production system
The crazier thing here is why was an AI working on or pushing to prod
Trump is a symptom, not the cause. Our democracy has been hacked and dismantled, if we want it back it must be rebuilt
Well, suspended except when it’s a criminal warrant. Which is how it always was
It’s good to repeat it: immigration is a civil matter. It’s a matter of paperwork. Do you know who goes after the murderers and rapists? The fucking police
Better than hard coded… Ideally we use tokens+fingerprint or something to avoid storing the creds directly (if possible), but putting them in environment variables is pretty common
It’s not the worst thing, it’s very convenient (so people won’t go around it) and usually not the weak point in security (although AI being able to easily see it is an interesting twist)
Not slightly. We’re already having problems with food and water in even “first world” countries… Just little hiccups before a true systematic failure
The disasters will get worse and way more common, but those aren’t where the true horrors will be. It’ll be the disease, conflict, and mass starvation
We could certainly overcome it. Humans are very adaptable… But it’s already starting, and we aren’t doing anything. We can’t even organize enough to agree we should do anything at all to save ourselves
So things will get horrific. It could take billions of dead to figure out a new way to live at this rate. Every lesson will be learned though desperation. And then one day, we’d reach that new worse normal
But if we got our act together and started actually preparing, it wouldn’t be bad. Scary and hard, but we’d get hope back. We’d regain connection to each other, and be united against an outside enemy. We’d share a dream of bringing the green back. We
We could come together pretty quickly once we accepted the necessary sacrifice of the old ways of living… But each day it progresses and we do nothing. It’s depressing and terrifying, but the truth can’t be ignored anymore
The idea is that “AI” is used to detect possible targets
Okay, but what does that mean? How does an llm do that exactly? What are the inputs and outputs?
Do you actually know, or did propoganda get you? No shame in it, if you hear something enough and it can worm it’s way in without conscious evaluation
I think neural networksthat highlight suspicious movements are fine, or at least as fine as weapons of war are fine in general. But ideally, that’s just battlefield information fed to humans, which isn’t how this is spoken about in the media
But we’re specifically talking about grok here. How does grok fit into the process of firing a missile exactly, and what are the incentives built into the system for the people involved?
You’ve got a decent grasp on the tech side, so I think if you consider the position of the stake holders you’ll come to the same conclusions.
Put yourself in the position of the developers providing models, the brass and why they want this, and the MIC shareholders and what they’d lobby for. Think of these pressures, and ask yourself what kind of direction the project is pushed in
There’s some pretty horrifying implications
What I don’t get is how a chatbot fires a missile…I mean you could give it a function call, but I don’t think we’re at that point of insanity just yet
Maybe it could read through Intel and recommend targets, but there’s no way anyone is reviewing the research thoroughly, with the diligence appropriate before taking lives
Can we stop the bullshitting and call the media out on this more? This is obviously just offloading responsibility to an entity beyond punishment
A fourth grader could see the problem here… It’s not if AI is or isn’t competent, it’s that the people involved are incentivized to blindly trust the AI. That no one is taking responsibility for, so really it’s no one’s fault when schoolchildren are slaughtered
I think there’s two distinct concepts at play, thin skin and thick skin. I do not consider them interchangeable concepts, even if they sound like it
I think a good church is great for hobby projects ready to be taken out of the basement
You do have to belong to such a church already though
At least finish reading the damn summary
The state is also requesting that the judge force a series of design changes to Meta’s platforms aimed at improving child safety, including universal age verification, de-encryption of children’s messages
Does this not sound familiar to you?
Because the world Bank and IMF fucked them when they resisted selling off their country through outside investments, leading to their currency being debased and ultimately giving them weak footing for international trade
They’ve never really recovered from that, and they’ve also flitted back and forth between wildly different economic interventions desperately trying to fix things
Yes?
It really never did though. People have never stopped buying high end furniture
Do you even know what you’re trying to say? Because I sure as hell have no idea what your positions are, you haven’t made them. I made mine, and if you could read you’d probably agree with them
Also I do know you’re using two accounts, because the votes are too even and no second person on earth has any idea what you’re on about

Are you stupid? Russia lost because they kicked a snowball that turned out to be a rock.
Russia failed because they mistook a hard target for a soft one and let their military be rotted by corruption… Their plan looked fine on paper
I don’t know what the fuck you read, but it wasn’t my post
Is it as concentrated as it appears? It’s basic art of war stuff, appear weak where you are strong and strong where you’re weak
The island is basically a bomb. It’s an enormous oil depot, with millions of barrels, not processing. It would hurt Iranian exports for sure, but if they’re not idiots they’d have contingencies so they could spend the island strategically
Russia failed because they mistook a hard target for a soft one and let their military be rotted by corruption… Their plan looked fine on paper
I said necessity, not luxury… If we enter a global depression, there won’t be cheap IKEA furniture anymore
The market for high quality furniture never went away. And if we enter a global depression, a local furniture maker will again be a necessity
The post said they were neon database creds, so I would think those would live on the production system in .env
Rereading it, it seems that they probably set their local build to point at the prod database… Which is like halfway developing (with AI) in prod (which I think we’d agree is not ideal)
I do absolutely agree with what you’re saying though, not everyone should have access to the prod system for sure… Especially not an AI on a loose leash
I’d split the difference and say we’re both right
