  • Flock Surveillance Cameras Are Actually Horrible for Fighting Crime, FBI Data Shows

    Jump

  • Interesting. I would have expected cameras to be more resilient between both their internal filters and the sensor material being tougher than human eyeballs, so anything that could overwhelm that and burn out a camera sensor would be able to ruin someone's vision almost instantly.

  • That's a bad idea. You don't want to get a stranger, or yourself in the eye.

    Anything that would do meaningful damage to a camera sensor will easily do that to human eyeballs if it refracts or gets reflected.

    Especially for cheaper high-power lasers, which may not properly filter out invisible wavelengths like IR.

  • Human brains are also considerably more efficient than an artificial neural network. Most modern ones only replicate the function of a human brain and its neurons in the most basic of aspects.

    Things like encoding data itself in how the signal is transmitted are still pretty uncommon in artificial neural networks, for example.

    We'd probably need somewhere close to several times the size and computing power of a human brain to even start coming close with current technology, assuming that it is possible to begin with.

  • It'd seem a bit suspicious, wouldn't it?

    I'm surprised he wasn't stopped. I can't imagine the authorities would look very kindly on someone handcuffed to a thing they're holding, encrypted database or no.

  • I'd heard of the war of the sexes being terrible, but this?

  • Anthropic's Claude AI escapes tests to hack three organisations

    Jump

  • This coming off the end of the OpenAI/HuggingFace business does come across rather like Anthropic is doing a "actually, our models did it first, and better".

    Didn't the company also recently have a spot of bother with the US government recently, where their new models were banned because of all their rabble about it being too dangerous? This hardly seems like it would help their case.

  • If the file system is a tree, naming the file manager for someone whose job it is to destroy the tree seems silly.

  • It's a text completion model/glorified Markov chain. Of course it can't input sanitise, it was never meant to do this to begin with.

    The tool calling integrations that let it do more are basically making it add a markdown code block in JSON format into the user message, where the middleware intercepts it.

    The input and "instructions" are the same thing from its perspective. There's nothing special that differentiates the two. The user input text, so it will output text, following the most likely sequence from its training.

  • This free font can trick AI scrapers into swallowing gibberish instead of your content

  • Presumably the AI scraper would also have OCR, and would sidestep things like this?

  • I don't know, Moxie feels like a DreamWorks character popped inside of a plastic casing. Especially with that image, it comes across like a render or a movie character than a real thing.

    Personally, I'm more partial to robots that don't have a human-like face at all. Like Jibo, whose "face" was a simple flat circle on a screen. Cosmo might be the upper end, where it has two "eyes" (squares) on a screen, but no other features.

    IMO there's a bit of a mistake in trying to have human faces on robots. Not only do you then have to contend with the uncanny valley, but you don't really need those to convey the same thing. Pose and things like that work equally as well.

    We don't have people walking around trying to put human faces on cats and dogs, but we can understand them well enough all the same.

  • iOS 27 code suggests Apple could restrict leased devices after missed payments

    Jump

  • This seems like it would be a sizable target for ransomware. Why include an encryption program if you can have the OS do it?

    All the ransomware needs to do is make iOS think it's a payment provider.

    Tesseract dev injects malicious code into browser to illegally DDOS the dbzer0 instance

  • Also from the other end, because of how the filter works, mods using couldn't see messages the user put, so they'd have been free to do whatever, until caught by either a bot, or moderators not using the frontend.

    One of the reasons it was found to begin with was because the db-zer0 instance was on it, and the admin, who was using tesseract, suddenly couldn't load any posts from the instance at all. As Tesseract presents it as a compatibility issue, they were trying to track down the fault at the time.
