That was a bit snarky and could lead to an irrelevant technical debate.

I should point out that, most importantly, when OpenAI claims that they air gapped these systems in any way (including just isolating them as a VM with no network device attached), I DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. They have done nothing to suggest that they are being honest about the situation. They only admitted fault when they got caught and then only in such ways that would allow them to weasel out of any legal liability.

It does not matter if an AI system can escape an air gapped system because we have no reason to believe that is what actually happened.

You and I clearly have a different definition of air gapped.

Programs do not just randomly do this. The guys at OpenAI knew the capabilities of the software, wrote its instructions, and intentionally ran the program.

They are only claiming these things are rogue because they got caught and they see this absurd claim as a way to avoid liability.

If I wrote a worm, tested it on my local network despite knowing that by design it could escape that local network and cause real damage, and then it did exactly that, no prosecutor, judge, or jury will let me off the hook when I claim I only intended to test it on the local network.

I would love to see the AGENTS.md for this thing. . .

That is bullshit. You expect me to believe someone on slashdot has multiple computers? What type of nerd site do you think this is?

The department will ensure that only approved donors are allowed to provide AI services.

If you are looking for a year of the Linux desktop, KDE is probably your best bet. Personally, I wish the macOS-style dock was the default, but it is easy enough to add and works well.

In my experience KDE works fine with Fedora, Debian, FreeBSD, and Arch. I am sure that list could be extended quite a bit, but that gives you plenty of options.

That reply was so stupid I am not even going to point out why. Try again. Read my original post and try to understand what I wrote. Just try to apply basic logic.

Your response was so fallacious you might as well have written 2 plus 2 equals five.

I am embarrassed for you.

Would those same insurance companies even cover a wreck that happened if the driver hopped in the back seat? That is what we are talking about, not a driver using autonomous features that they can instantly override at any time.

Just remember that you can regret voting for Trump but still be happy that you didn't vote for the other candidate.

It's not like we've had really good presidential options in the US from either party for the past 10 years or so.

You would think that they would have at least waited for their first F1 season to be be over before jacking up the prices.

It's bad enough that I'm paying extra for something that used to be included in my cable package, but now I have to pay even more?

Yeah, but in 2020 Trump was pretty confident that he was going to win reelection without needing a bunch of shenanigans.

This time, he's going to have come up with a pretty big fake emergency to suspend elections and remain in power IF that's something that he actually wants to do. I don't really think that he does, but man... he sure loves trolling liberals by posting Trump 2028 memes.

Why would cars need DDR5 RAM? It's not like displaying a GPS dashboard or mirroring CarPlay is super intensive. Cheaper DDR4 memory would probably work just fine in most cars.

Yeah, but aren't they filling their AI model with information on how to run a badly managed airline that went bankrupt? I don't see any value in that data, other than knowing what NOT to do in the future.

I don't know... maybe they just want their cheapskate passenger list, so they know who not to bother advertising premium travel services to in the future.

It will certainly ensure that you won't be buying used games at a yard sale for $5 a piece 10 years from now, anyway.
