Criminals don't own datacenters running the models that actually pose a threat.

Mid-high gaming pc money will have you running near-frontier level models locally.

Mathematics is a tool used to compute missile trajectories and weapon yields. Math should be shut down and deleted now. LOL

Guns are a tool used to kill people, guns should be shut down and deleted now.

And then only the criminals would have them. You know because criminals tend to break the law so making a tool that they used to break the law illegal wouldn't really impaire them.

Of course every criminal has easy access to large data centers, and stuff. Except for the federal three letter criminals, of course.

Especially because it's the same damn people every time that caused the security vulnerabilities in the first place. If Karen could just stop clicking on obviously spam emails we'd be fine.

I just flag every email from IT and HR as a phish

Man, I remember those really shit recordings from a shaky phone of movies.....they really really sucked.

While current cam videos are a lot worse than the clean data ones once it comes out on streaming, they are a lot better than they used to be. Do people set up a tripod or something now? And of course they have to wear a gray hoodie, it's required.

Obviously the grey hoodie is mandatory.
I've not really been interested in any new releases for the last decade or so. Or not interested enough to download a theatre recording anyway. 25 years ago, yeah, grabbed them all the time.

Sounds like Karen doesn't get email priveleges anymore, on account of being a constant active threat vector.

Can't do your job without email, you say? How tragic. If you learned how to use it properly the last seven times we had this discussion and referred you to mandatory phishing safety classes, this wouldn't be a problem.

Cool. Now target the student loan borrower databases.

That's how you get doorkickers instead of a lawsuit.

I think it was a joke, but the student loan borrower databases are backed up in salt mines.

There's a lot of people in here who don't know about open weight models that can run on an old 7900XTX.

The data center part of LLMs is how they're going to try to make money off of LLMs. The technology to use it for nefarious uses is already loose in the world.

No does anybody else, but apparently they have access to them well we wouldn't even be talking about it.

still built on theft. stop acting like running your own model means it wasn't built on top of giant fucking theft.

It’s always funny to see the priorities. People were asking how the bunker owning billionaires were expected the AI/climate apocalypse to go for them and we had to point out that while your wealth, data, and all might be screwed up and lost, they have records of their ownership and your debt that will survive a nuclear war.

No, you're simply oblivious to the fact that it's all built on theft. someone has to compute the inference, requiring tremendous amounts of resources, built on theft. you're not going to keep the llm and destroy the data center, even if you steal the fucking model someone had to compute it.

but cute distractions kiddo

Only the dim glow of the screen illuminated Hackerman, leaving his face in a shrouded mystery under his hood. From the corner of Hackerman's room, a figure crept out of the void. A nightmare silhouette crowned with a trillby hat. Hatman stood behind Hackerman, his cold strong hands squeezed Hackman's shoulders. The frenzy of typing ceased. Hackman spun around in his Respawn Pro chair. Their fac...

Technically, math helps us figure out the diameter and barrel length as well as the amount of accelerant to create adequate pressure to fire a bullet to accurately kill things, so in the end it's all math's fault.

yeah it's always "we can run them on our gpus!"

yeah uh who trained it? how many gigawatts and thousand gallons of water did it take for inference?

near frontier levels of stolen shit, which is fine, it's all stolen, but holy hell don't act like it didn't require idiotic amounts of precompiling and a moral ambivalence to the stolen corpus.

Or maybe they're too stupid to know lol

See, this is the dedication im talking about.

You see more then one person disagreeing with you and suddenly it's a bunch of alt accounts all ganging up on you.

It probably didn't even enter your mind that you might be wrong.

Thats the kind of dedication to sub-par thought processes you just don't see everyday.

Cursory check of account histories to see if they show any signs of overlap?

Hah, no, must be a conspiracy.

Re-read the comment chain, just in case you might have missed something?

Hell no, single user conspiracy against you is the obvious cause.

This is the kind of single minded pursuit of the "truth" that the internet is lacking nowadays.

I'd give you a slow clap but with your level of demonstrated perception, you might think in trying to attack you or something.

Anyway, good luck with life, sounds like it might be a bit of a struggle.

Edit: I realise that's probably a lot of text for you to read in one sitting, don't push yourself, if it's too much, just reply with an excuse and block me. That way nobody will know. Mental health is important

You should reread the thread and hopefully you can see that you are missing the point. Even if you are technically correct. Your comment doesn't contribute to the thread. Which is why they are downvoted

That was my first thought. I think the difference is that AI isn't a literal killing machine. AI is more like a hammer, it can be used that way. A gun is a killing machine.

heh these mines are MASSIVE. Someone found the unedited version of Event Horizon in one. Only a little bit of the footage was recoverable, it's a shame. The movie would have been even better with those scenes; it's one of my favorite movies.

It is, to back your point up. My Jeeps AC broke within a week of getting fixed lol

I think it's a pipe dream that been passed down by generations. It's like Muskrat, Daddy's like here's a quarter million and now get out of the house so I can make my harem. Oh and do you want to spit roast the maid one more time or are you going to build your own harem like a big boy in the you ass of a?
