Hackers gained access to an online coding repository belonging to the University of Sydney and stole files with personal information of staff and students.

The institution said the breach was limited to a single system and was detected last week. It promptly shut down the unauthorized access and notified the New South Wales Privacy Commissioner, the Australian Cyber Security Centre, and education regulators.

And now you know why you should encrypt your data on any cloud provider.

I wonder .. will it be another case of "Too Big To Fail" .. or will it be .. "Let The Market Decide"?

I'm guessing the answer depends on how many medals the CEO of Oracle can bestow upon the Orange.

I'll add it to the list:

  • AI is Assumed Intelligence.
  • AI is autocorrect on steroids.
  • AI is a Dunning-Kruger accelerator.
  • AI is a classic case of Gell-Mann amnesia.

Have you told her this, just like you have here?

What you're describing is a general experience with LLM, not limited to the C-level.

If an LLM sprouts rubbish you detect it because you have external knowledge, in other words, you're the subject matter expert.

What makes you think that those same errors are not happening at the same rate outside your direct personal sphere of knowledge?

Now consider what this means for the people around you, including the C-level.

Repeat after me, AI is Assumed Intelligence and should not be considered anything more than autocorrect on steroids.

Well, unless it came back in the last 25 minutes, it's working fine in Western Australia.

I'm guessing that the answer to that is .. as soon as openai collapses .. hopefully.

The article explains precisely what it is and why .. it's even written in English.

How do you determine what the "real problems" are?

Charging him with a crime sounds like a good start .. though I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

 

Death is inevitable but we still seem flummoxed by it happening. We have all kinds of End of Life policies and procedures which do everything possible to make life difficult for those left behind.

Our language is around loss and unexpected, and grief and being bereft.

Why do we make Death so hard to process in our community and what can we do to normalise it across society?
