Zuck is having all his keystrokes recorded too, right? Right?

Make sure the AI engineers get that data. Especially the passwords to his and the company’s bank accounts. All his accounts, actually.

There’s a reason why most businesses don’t implement keystroke logging.

I honestly don’t see what the big deal is. Surely it will rise again.

All hail John Apple!

The reason why you hear this so often is because academia is designed to teach students based on a logical, reasonable curriculum. The curriculum will be mostly well-thought-out and cover all the important topics.

Then you take someone who followed this perfectly reasonable path and you place them in front of the total shitshow that is most businesses. Everything they think they know won’t be applicable because most of the time, logic and reason were not what drove adoption of any given tool or practice.

So… In no time at all, they’re going to be breached. Proving them wrong.

Will they go back to open source after that? No. Of course not. Because it was never about security to begin with. AI is just an excuse.

It’s like saying, “anyone can scan the source for vulnerabilities! It’s so easy. Too easy! That’s why we’re not going to justdo that ourselves and instead bury our heads in the sand and pretend the availability of source code was the problem.”

I’ve been researching this a bit… I’ve come to the conclusion that there is no AI bubble. In fact, we’re only just getting started down this road. Unless there’s some massive 100x efficiency breakthrough in training AI and inference, the entire world is going to be building seemingly endless AI data centers (and the normal compute kind, e.g. for stuff like AWS, Google/YouTube, Meta, banks) for at least a decade. Probably a little longer (12-15 years before demand levels out).

Everyone thinks that “AI data center” means ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc but there’s 10,000x more demand for AI than those services. Think: Pharmaceutical companies trying to find proteins, scientists (and big agriculture!) trying to model the weather, and other businesses trying to automate stuff. Not just software; robots and things like conveyor belts.

Another example: Ever use one of those self-checkouts that’s mostly just a camera pointing down, where you place the stuff you’re purchasing? That uses AI too.

Having said that, there is a great big bubble in AI: OpenAI, specifically. That will definitely pop one day. And hopefully, the DRAM bullshit will go along with it.

Peter drove a Ford!

“And Peter followed from a-Ford.” (Matthew 26:58)

Pontiac had some sales too:

“And the Lord gave them Solstice.” (Joshua 21:44)

The Bible even had the Fast and the Furious!

“The driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.” (2 Kings 9:20)

Jehu probably drove a Plymouth Fury (with a lead foot).

“AI warfare” or, “AI is stealing all the jobs of our army of international scammers, that we allow to operate freely as long as they don’t target Russians!”

Ever see someone using Google and cringe? People who have experience getting AI to do what they want feel the same when they see normies writing their prompts.

Did I miss some memo or something? Are we mad at this style of comic right now for some reason?

I’ve got my pitchfork downvote ready, just give me a good reason 👍

I honestly don’t see what’s wrong with this particular comic. It’s just a silly comic about a common problem with “free” games.

Finally, robots are automating the boaring jobs!

Grand Theft Data

For crying out loud!

PFASF

Yeah but it works and it’s still free 🤷

Other place: “UNSCHEDULED OFF-WORLD ACTIVATION!”

(Horn sounds)

“Wait: Is there a sunspot‽”

It ain’t much, but it’s dishonest work.

Remember, kids: If we taught you how to protect your privacy and recover from things like this, you’d also learn how to get around the censorship we impose upon you so stay in the dark and suffer.

Yep. They have several attachments for many size rings 👍

I hate having to deal with these things so much I spent real money on a special tool to deal with them. Even though I only have to mess with circlips once in a blue moon. Maybe even longer.
