Sending a bunch of fresh grad children in to barricade themselves in government offices, demand access keys, and uplink all the data via illegal Starlink wasn't enough. Now we need to give the drooling nazi child-porn-bot creator to our secure classified networks.

They really are just trying to tear this whole nation apart as brutally & as fast as possible, lend quarter to every bad power in the world & idolize the dirtbags all. Vice signalling until there's nothing left.

watwut•3w ago
I mean, it looks like ordered Hegseth both war crimes and murders and America is not even at war. He is a guy who thinks bullying is being masculine and killing people due to feeling bad is how you prove that men more rational then women.

So, it makes 100% sense that he teams up with nazi billionaire to give him secrets in exchange of allowing him to more effectively mistreat people.

ZeroGravitas•3w ago
The guy went to a conference for Republican Women and drugged and raped the conference organiser who stepped in to stop him sexually harassing two other women attendees.

And this was probably considered a plus when hiring him into the current government.

That would be an improvement.

This is the AI which called itself Mecha Hitler, and the owner's response to it making CSAM on demand was to limit this to paying customers and cry "free speech" in response to all the outrage.

We really are going for full atomisation of the individual and erasure of human warmth and biological naivety aren't we. History is prehistory.

I don't subscribe to it and I think I can insulate myself from whatever technology driven horrors we uncover/create psychologically pretty well but it's not exactly great.

It is the intake-only transport of software/LLM through a waterfall-type security that is bringing LLM (and related analysis tools, RAG, HYDE) into the SCIF.

Nothing is taken out except product results with appropriate classification level.

Then I saw "Newsweek" for what it is, a yellow journalistic rag corporation that was bought for exactly $1.00 USD by a billionaire car radio magnate as a gift for his wife, a radical ex-US-Congresswoman so she can prop her party up.

Jane Harman was a "conservative Blue Dog Democrat", with Blue Dogs already being on the conservative side of Democrats. How are you asserting that she was radical?

What could possibly go wrong?

Besides the obvious stuff like it declaring war on South Africa or deciding Musk is better than all other candidates for Commander in Chief?

It's one single mind which can be easily probed for personality defects by adversaries, who will ruthlessly exploit this as surely as people cheat in online chess games by feeding moves into stockfish and seeing what the response is.

So far we're 1 full year early according to "AI 2027". (1)

"OpenBrain presents Agent-2 to the government, including the National Security Council (NSC), the Department of Defense (DOD), and the U.S. AI Safety Institute (AISI). "

(1) https://ai-2027.com

ben_w•3w ago
Anyone can present a model at any time, the question is if Grok meets the requirements to match Agent-2; given Musk's long history of over-promising and under-delivering AI, there's no reason to trust Grok is as capable as he says, and even if it was:

  Agent-2, more so than previous models, is effectively “online learning,” in that it’s built to never really finish training. Every day, the weights get updated to the latest version, trained on more data generated by the previous version the previous day.
