Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

in absolutely the funniest outcome so far, you can send data to an LLM that pops a Remote Code Execution vulnerability (mastodon.social)

all of the developers I know at AI-related startups identify as researchers, regardless of their actual role

the underlying hardware, OS, VMs etc.

no, let’s not blame unaffiliated systems engineers for this dumb shit, thanks

Oh, yea sorry I forgot AI models actually run in a vacuum and needs no supporting code or infrastructure to make it usable to the average user so it doesn't even need non-AI best security practices! Process isolation? OS hardening? Pfft who needs it

i wouldn't touch the llm stuff with a barge pole unless i was expressly told to do so, and if i've been told to do it, i'd look for another employer (which i'm currently doing, for tangentially-related reasons).

and it's not that i don't care about the llms. i do care very much about them all ending in fiery pit of the deepest of hells.
