Remember UK, you didn't _just_ vote for age verification to access adult sites, you also voted to make yourself create an account on said sites that will individually track everything you read and watch there. Have fun with that, especially when that data is inevitably breached!

@bortzmeyer is reporting in https://www.bortzmeyer.org/menaces-de-cloud-innovation.html that Cloud Innovation, the Chinese company that has paralyzed #AFRINIC with legal actions, is threatening people who share links to this article: https://medium.com/@emmanuelvitus/afrinic-hope-hijack-and-the-harsh-lessons-of-african-multistakeholderism-8e8378797101 .

🎁 GenAI x Sec Advent #20

Did you know there is an Nmap for LLMs? 🤔

So we are building more and more GenAI systems, but how do we know if they are secure enough for production? 👇

Let’s talk about @garak_llm, the "Nmap for LLM"!

Garak is a tool from NVIDIA that lets you scan your model for potential vulnerabilities or weaknesses by sending probes!

☠️ A probe is basically a targeted input designed to test and expose vulnerabilities or failures in a language model’s behavior.

🤓 Think of it like a locksmith testing every key on a ring to find the one that unlocks a door that shouldn’t be open.

There is already more than a hundred different probes for encoding, malware generation, prompt injection, and more… 🤯

Sometimes Google's AI results are accurate.

I think in hindsight I regret not job hopping more early in my career. I was always cautious of the fact that you don’t know how good or bad a job will be until you already start working there. So my logic was if I’m happy with my current job, why quit for a shot at a slightly better one? Which wasn’t helped by that fact that a friend and I both got job offers from a company I’ve wanted to work at my whole life. I turned it down because anxiety, he joined and ended up quitting the second he could because it turned out to be a bureaucratic nightmare 😆

The times are a’ changing…for the better in many ways!

Did you realize that we live in a reality where SciHub is illegal, and OpenAI is not?

this is the real trolley problem

Just in case other vi(m) folks are also a few years late to the following party:

so, the reddit API protest has taken a different direction, now people are uploading gigabtyes of videos to reddit which are just noise. i cannot stress this enough, do NOT run the command ffmpeg -filter_complex "nullsrc=s=1920x1080,geq=random(1)*255:128:128[vout]" -map "[vout]" -t 46 -c:v libx264 out.mp4 in order to generate one of these large video files then upload them en masse in order to slow down their servers, that totally will not help with the protest
