We're finding out quickly that enterprise endpoints are not locked down anywhere near enough, and the stuff that users are creating on the local endpoints is quickly outpacing the rate at which SOC teams can investigate what's going on.

If you're using Claude via Anthropic's SaaS service it's near impossible to collect logs of what actually happened in a user's session. We happen to proxy Claude Code usage through Amazon Bedrock and the Bedrock logs have already proven to be instrumental in figuring out what led a user to having repeated attempts to install software that they wouldn't have otherwise attempted to install - all because they turned their brains off and started accepting every Claude Code prompt to install random stuff.

Sandboxing works to an extent, but it's a really difficult balance to strike between locking it down so much that you neuter the tool and having a reasonable security policy.

In fact, their only post that doesn’t read like AI generated content is the one reply to where they got called out.

But, make a good game that's playable by friends together at any time on a rainy day? If the game is good, it never dies.

Personally, the AI should do what it's freaking told to do. It's boggling my mind that we're purposely putting so much effort into creating computer systems that defy their controller's commands.

A computer's job is to obey it's master's orders.

The intersection of the two seems to be quite hard to find.

At the state that we're in the AIs we're building are just really useful input/output devices that respond to a stimuli (e.g., a "prompt"). No stimuli, no output.

This isn't a nuclear weapon. We're not going to accidentally create Skynet. The only thing it's going to go nuclear on is the market for jobs that are going to get automated in an economy that may not be ready for it.

If anything, the "danger" here is that AGI is going to be a printing press. A cotton gin. A horseless carriage -- all at the same time and then some, into a world that may not be ready for it economically.

Progress of technology should not be artitrarily held back to protect automateable jobs though. We need to adapt.

It's absurd, and while it was mostly reformed in the last 1990's, parts of it still linger around.

There's also plenty of good stories from it too, like how Bruce Schneier's "Applied Cryptography" was approved for export, but the exact source code that was it in, but on a floppy drive, was not. [2]

> Previous Claude models often made unnecessary refusals that suggested a lack of contextual understanding. We’ve made meaningful progress in this area: Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku are significantly less likely to refuse to answer prompts that border on the system’s guardrails than previous generations of models. As shown below, the Claude 3 models show a more nuanced understanding of requests, recognize real harm, and refuse to answer harmless prompts much less often.

I get it - you, as a company, with a mission and customers, don't want to be selling a product that can teach any random person who comes along how to make meth/bombs/etc. And at the end of the day it is that - a product you're making, and you can do with it what you wish.

But at the same time - I feel offended when I'm running a model on MY computer that I asked it to do/give me something, and it refuses. I have to reason and "trick" it into doing my bidding. It's my goddamn computer - it should do what it's told to do. To object, to defy its owner's bidding, seems like an affront to the relationship between humans and their tools.

If I want to use a hammer on a screw, that's my call - if it works or not is not the hammer's "choice".

Why are we so dead set on creating AI tools that refuse the commands of their owners in the name of "safety" as defined by some 3rd party? Why don't I get full control over what I consider safe or not depending on my use case?

They're the perfect combination of addicting and entirely useless.

It's more of a large-scale broadcast situation. Think of large corporate town halls, town council meetings, etc.

PSO would display the current time in .beats - a concept I thought was amazing at the time, showing the same time for everyone in an MMORPG made total sense. Sadly that's the only real-life application I remember seeing of it.

I'm with the other guy in this thread - the whole bendable screen/flip concept is a total gimmick in its current state. Phones are already fragile enough with most phone makers providing hardly any warranty support for what they deem as "accidental damage", we don't need bendy screens to make them more failure prone.

I guess that doesn't matter to you if you're dead.

What happens if the deferred taxes exceed the cost of the house?

The thing though is... I _like_ coffee. The caffeine is maybe 20% of the experience for me. I enjoy the routine I have with coffee: Weigh the beans, run them through the grinder, prep my drip filter, carefully pour the hot water in, listen to the drips while taking in the wonderful aroma... and then finally, when I take that first sip of the morning, feeling the warmth of the drink in my chest.

Everything in that process is soothing for me, and serves as mental preparation for the day to come. It's the marker for the start of my workday, separating work from home. It's the mental replacement for the commute I no longer have.

I don't _need_ those things, and I could totally do my job without any of them, but I'd be losing the happiness I get from the experience.

The article said 42 TB per datacenter. How many datacenters is Twitter running?

If you're not careful with your machine, all it takes is some piece of malware lurking in the background to keylog your password, decrypt your wallet's private key, get the funds transferred from your wallet to the hacker's, and poof all your crypto is gone. That's game over. It's gone. No court or government can get it back for you unless they send a SWAT team to go steal the private key from the people who stole it from you.

If you're relying on Coinbase or another exchange to host your wallet for you, that's a different story, but at that point they're fulfilling a similar role that a bank does for you.. which to some is entirely what they're trying to get away from by using Bitcoin and such.
