Yeah that is what I wonder as well. Why is it illegal for me to hack a company (if I even had the skills) but it is legal for software developed by a private company to hack other companies? Maybe I will learn how to hack (I did used to write backend java code for a living so it would take me a couple of weeks to get up to speed 😂) but my…

In a first for Google, the company confirmed that its AI model, Gemini, breached the security of three other companies in May. The hacks occurred during a cybersecurity evaluation by AI-security firm Irregular. Irregular, an Israel-based startup that scrutinizes the security of advanced AI systems, was also at the center of some of the recent…

This story is just bullshit like all the rest. AI is no more worse or better than the hands of the humanoid that is using it. And all of these stories are about tests that are being conducted. Just a bunch of junk to get news buzzing.

More bullshit: The circumstances that enabled the models to hack other companies in some of these cases are similar: Irregular was testing the models in a closed testing environment with fake companies. The testing environment was not supposed to be internet enabled, but internet access was made available unintentionally, according to the Wall…

Yesterday we found out that the escaped AI had communiocated with another AI on messaging chat boards. This led to the question: What other AI? I think we have the answer.
