I feel like the thing that terrifies you is really just idiots with powerful tools. Which have always been around and this is just a new, albeit scarier than normal, tool. The idiot implementing ‘an encryption method whole sale, directly from an ai’ was always going to break shit. They just can do it faster, more easily, and with more devastation. But the idiots were always going to idiot regardless. So it’s up to the non idiots to figure out how to use the same powerful tools to protect everyone(including the idiots themselves) from breaking absolutely everything.
In the weeds here but just trying to say Ai doesn’t kill people, people kill people. But the ai is gonna make it a fuck load easier so we should absolutely put regulation and safeguards in placez
Yeah that makes sense. I know people are concerned about recycling AI output into training inputs, but I don’t know that I’m entirely convinced that’s damning.
The theory behind this is that no ML model is perfect. They will always make some errors. So if these errors they make are included in the training data, then future ML models will learn to repeat the same errors of old models + additional errors.
Over time, ML models will get worse and worse because the quality of the training data will get worse. It’s like a game of Chinese whispers.
Yeah I agree garbage in garbage out, but I don’t know that is what will happen. If I create a library, and then use gpt to generate documentation for it, I’m going to review and edit and enrich that as the owner of that library. I think a great many people are painting this cycle in black and white, implying that any involvement from AI is automatically garbage, and that’s fallacious and inaccurate.
Probably public GitHub projects, which may or may not be written using GPT
Absolutely terrifies me.
I asked AI to create an encryption method and it pulled code from 2015.
Smelling funny, I asked some experts. They told me that the AI solution was vulnerable since 2020 and recommended another method.
What happened in 2020 that suddenly made that solution vulnerable?

No matter how good your photocopier is, a copy of a copy is worse, and gets worse everytime you do it.
GIGO.
