It's the wage theft versus retail theft problem, no matter which one has higher 'real' costs, society has decided that one is the 'real' problem that we should prioritize.

Basically, yes.

He's helping with a fascist takeover of the country, why wouldn't they be happy?

Back in the day, Google eng had pretty unguarded access to people's gmails, calendars, etc. Then there was a news story involving a Google SRE grooming children and stalking them through their google accounts...

[Sebguer]

what was the name? and how did you possibly spend ten minutes on it

[Eddy_Viscosity2 → Sebguer]

I tried many names, including just gibberish keyboard smashing, there is no way they were all already taken.

On: Jimmy Wales trusts the process

The planet of wealth.

On: Atlassian is acquiring The Browser Company

[Sebguer]

Yes, and the person you are replying to is clearly referencing Windsurf which was another vscode fork...

It was the classic "oh no we did caching wrong" bug that many startups bump into. It didn't expose actual conversations though, only their titles: https://openai.com/index/march-20-chatgpt-outage/

[postalcoder → Sebguer]

ah there it is. thanks for jogging my memory. funny to think of how niche chatgpt was considered then to now.

On: Unlike ChatGPT, Anthropic has doubled down on Artifacts

[Sebguer]

The extra system prompt can definitely cause some performance issues, and it can over use them. The deleting every line behavior is gone though. It's definitely not something you should turn on for every conversation, but it's quite compelling for creating little capsule web apps.

Do you understand what a hallucination is?

[jojobas → Sebguer]

Coming up with accurate financial data that you can't get it to report outright doesn't seem like one.

[Sebguer → jojobas]

Models do not possess awareness of their training data. Also you are taking at face value that it is "accurate".

[refulgentis → jojobas]

I don't understand the wording

Accurate financial data?

How do we know?

What does using not-web-search not having the data have to do with the claim that private chats with the data are being leaked?

[01HNNWZ0MV43FF → refulgentis]

> I found this company; it is real and numbers in the response are real.

???

[refulgentis → 01HNNWZ0MV43FF]

Which of my questions does that answer?

[queenkjuul → refulgentis]

That the financial data is accurate?

[refulgentis → queenkjuul]

It's an ourobos - he can't verify it's real! If he can, its online and available by search.

[JyB → refulgentis]

Therefore what are the odds that this is just the LLM doing its thing versus "a vulnerability". Seem like a pretty obvious bet.
