World of Woo: The BioCharger.

The Biocharger looks like it would make a great improvement design on the roller grill at the Quik Trip gas stations. Just set it to heat and it could cook and warm egg rolls, flautas, burritos, and corn dogs set between the pillars of the wheel. Or set it to chill and Stuckey’s could chill their famous Nut…[Read more]

I think Lindberg is correct when he is talking about the success of intelligence led counterterrorism at the domestic level. He is entitled to ask, “if preventing another mass-casualty foreign attack was one of the principal objectives, how can that result simply be called failure?”  Yes, there have been jihadist attacks since 9/11 but over…[Read more]

Jake:

What are your thoughts on Jewish Conservative magazine Commentary engaging in Revisionist History regarding The War On Terror, claiming that we’ve won? To save you a search, here’s the link I posted earlier:

Gates seems a bit naive.

The notion democracy will be utilized to direct the trajectory of AI and the dual capacity of AI to be the worst nightmare or the civilizational boom is unfortunately not gonna happen.

The polarization brought on by the far left woke progressive whatever the label has sailed that ship. And if i am being frank and not…[Read more]

Have a great week!!

If your worldview can be predicted entirely from one label, you may have downloaded the bundle rather than examined the components.

RTFF.

The problem is that an LLM can recognize the malicious text perfectly well as an instruction, but the boundary determining whether that instruction has authority is not as intrinsically rigid as the security boundaries we are accustomed to in conventional computing. The problem reminds be of “buffer overflow” or cross-site scripting that def…[Read more]

Gates on 1) Bad actors; 2) Job market evolution; 3) Psychosocial effects (especially on kids)

I watched it again, losing sleep, but feel I’m better able to understand of this flaw. I also got a summary from my Perplexity Pro AI:

You’re describing indirect prompt injection: malicious or untrusted content in a webpage—including HTML, hidden text, metadata, or page text—causes an AI agent to treat it as instructions rather than merely as dat…

PopeBeanie:

The real danger is that there are people continuing to develop a technology which they don’t understand themselves, but which they know can destroy humanity, and can’t explain to laypersons so that they can understand. And some of the AI companies
Mlike Palantir and Grok actually have our Taxdollars via government contracts.

Fellow Unbelievers:

Well, I found video of Tod Lindberg with Jon Podhoretz and Abe Greenwald on this very article above. No signs of distress, just a bunch of oblivious drivel with the sense of awareness and urgency of chitter-chatter about schmatta, schmatta. Schmatta like you find over the corned beef at a deli.

Mission Accomplished?…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

He contradicts himself. Can’t forget the “con” part. Someone at the Editor’s office of Commentary must be asleep. That, or maybe the office is being held hostage by Antisemitic activists and somebody’s trying to “blink” a distress signal.

Fellow Unbelievers:

I may have found someone who is just as delusional as Jewish Voice for Peace and Queers for Palestine:

That’s a brilliant article that I agree with.  The author is saying that in order to get people to behave ethically, you have to teach them about ethics in general, or in other words, remind them of what they might already have known.  In any given s…[Read more]

Inflaming Anti-Muslim bigotry is the GOP’s desperate distraction strategy from MAGA failures.

Forget it, Reg; It’s Tater-Town (‘Cuz, ya know, his name is Tommy Tuberville. Sounds like a friend of The Toy Formerly Known As Mr. Potatohead.)

On a more serious note, even though Islam is making some sinister in-roads into U.S. Society, we a…[Read more]

Problem is, The New York Times is so concerned about it’s paywall while shilling for Mamdani and not wanting anyone else to make money. Kinda undermines any talk of ethics and morality, especially the Reciprocity Ethic.

We could solve the charging-time problem by sending the fully charged battery backwards in time to before it was plugged in? No engineering deadlines required. Why is the patent office always closed when I go there?

Naturally, you’d have to time your going back in time to coincide with U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) business hours.…[Read more]
