  • The AI CEOs are experts at creating criti-hype.

    “Our product is so dangerous that you need us to keep you safe from it”

    “Our product is so capable it could outsmart every human being trying to stop it! Hey by the way, you want to replace your workers with our chatbot?”

    I don’t think a lot of these AI CEOs even believe it themselves. They just know that getting everyone to scream “It’s so powerful it could kill us all (without us in control)” is great for making business deals with companies that want a highly capable “thinking” machine, or pitching their infinite potential future growth to investors.


  • I mean… there’s hacker groups out there, and there’s people who are opposed to the livestream, so obviously there’s some groups that’d want to shut it off.

    The main issue is that the means of doing so are… pretty unlikely to exist or be possible to figure out how to exploit in time before it’s over.

    Realistically, they’d have to find a way to shut off all internet connectivity via every possible method to wherever it’s being streamed from, which is pretty unlikely. (would require someone to physically dig underground and cut off any copper/fiber optic lines, then also find a way to illegally and without being fox hunted use a signal jammer that blocks every single cellular signal, and also take down any satellite-based internet dishes)

    The alternative is if they can somehow, within the duration of the livestream, identify which device on all of the internet is streaming to whatever platform is hosting the stream (its IP wouldn’t be exposed to anyone other than the company hosting the stream), then also find vulnerabilities that would allow them into the device, or have the DDoS capacity to saturate the network that specific device is connected to (while also being able to do the same to every single possible backup device or network link that’s available)

    So no, realistically, probably not.




  • They used an AI model to repeatedly generate guesses of the code until it matched the compiled bytecode, then AI-generated new code based on the decompiled source to create a technically unique codebase that can do most of the same functions and looks extremely close to the original.

    Has essentially every feature, but also bugs out a lot or has features that technically work, but not in the same way as Photoshop (e.g. magic wand selection tool might bug out and select stuff on more than one layer, and might be less accurate and selecting fine edges)
