Top Shadow AI Security Concerns"]]></title><description><![CDATA[
<p>The cope is so strong. You guys have been and still are bamboozled by "Open"AI and their expensive black box. They keep on fleecing you and their investors and you keep on drinking the Kool Aid, 'cause USA, USA, USA.<p>Now their whole scam has been blown out of the water. Anyone talking about that? Deepseek has done the world a huge favour by showing that what is being sold is snake-oil. And the world owes them a lot. They have built something for cheap (relatively speaking), they released it out in the open, permitted everyone to use it freely, shared all their research. Singlehandedly destroyed OpenAI's inference hoax (Expect massive discounts) and pushed AI ahead by a great leap.<p>And all you guys can say is - Look - Its calling China. Calling China and then what?<p>We have given our data to America our whole lives and never did I hear a complaint. As long as you are the ones sucking all that juicy user info right?<p>Your top companies. Your FAANG and whatever other stupid acronyms are shaking in their boots. They are crumbling and taking a huge part of the economy with them.<p>Getting tired of watching America run headfirst into a fire while trying to make enemies out of rivals.<p>I'll make it simple. If America and China fights we are all dead. Whether from the first few nukes or the fallout thereafter. So stop the showboating. You will not attack China. Because doing that means certain death for you too. And you're much too special for that.<p>I guess if some of you Americans are left after the madman presses the big red button, you can call that a victory and happily rule over nothing.<p>So go ahead and continue trusting in the grand vision of the crypto conmen. Musk pushing DOGE from a pump and dump when he needs some extra cash (Yah, I know), all the way to a government department, Trump making a meme coin every second week (when he's not selling Bibles. ..Selling Bibles... and the ultimate grifter, your eyeball scanning, orb peddling, poverty exploiting Alt-Man. Guess he doesn't need all that free moolah and biometrics from Worldcoin anymore...<p>The ignorance in here is astounding. I never even went to college. Just shows what a scam that is.</p>

<p>With all the megabrains in here, how can some of you not see what's coming? China is making friends at the rate that the US is making enemies. Think about it for a second... Which new friends has the US made? I am talking solid, willing-to-give-you-the-middle-finger-and-go-with-the-other-guy friends (yeah, I know). Now contrast this to the friends China has made. China has secured the most powerful nation in each contested territory. South America, Africa, The Middle East and obviously, it is, itself the biggest power in Asia.<p>Now for effect, The US cannot even keep Europe aligned with them, and the fallout will be that much sharper in the next few years. You have bought <i>cash money</i> the sinking territories of Micronesia (great for UN votes, but not much else) What you have left is The English Speaking Conglomerate of USA, England (Not the UK - because I don't think you can count on Ireland, Scotland and Wales), Canada, Australia and New Zealand. And of these "Five Eyes", in a Sino-American conflict, two of them will be felled very quickly by their neighbour China (Australia and New Zealand) and Canada will have to fend off a massive assault by it's neighbour Russia (China's BFF) That leaves the original "greatest friendship". The enduring Anglo-American powerhouse.<p>Now I would think that England has not done itself any favours with Brexit. How is that going for them? So Europe is not a certain ally for them either. The EU is Europe, ask Turkey :-)<p>What you have left is an Anglo-American vs Sino-Russian battle for the future of humanity. The thing is the rest of humanity has already decided who they are betting on. Hint - It's not Anglo-America.<p>You Anglophones have managed to take control of 3 of the 6 continents. Is that not enough? And if it isn't then expect that there will be hell to pay, because at this point, the world will rather die on it's feet then endure more suffering under your boot.<p>Goeiedag en Dankie.</p>

<p>You are comfortable highlighting the supposed fact that Indians apparently smell worse then others, in general. Why do you suppose you can literally highlight that so easily? Are you of Indian descent? Now if some random white guy said the same thing... I live in South Africa, home of the biggest Indian population in Africa, and one of the biggest in the world. I will answer your question as an unemployed Coloured(gasp) male who dropped out of highschool - It's the spice. It's the atchar. That stuff goes right to your armpits. Like onions find their way to jizz. No science, just astute observation. Anybody got a grant to give? I will investigate this 24/7</p>

<p>How useful are a bunch of programmers in the wild in 2028? How much coding can they do? What level of tooling is sufficient for them to do their work?<p>Is there someone out there that can code with only paper and pencil?<p>It might be hard for them to run the program, but do they exist?<p>What level of tooling is sufficient for them to do their job?<p>A laptop and IDE comes to mind. At this point they should be able to write programs and run them locally for the tribe to enjoy, right?<p>They should surely know everything about the language. All the tips and tricks, because heaven forbid if they get stumped somewhere...<p>But that is where "the docs" come in, right?<p>So we have to make sure that they have the official docs available on the laptop. That would solve a lot of issues...<p>I would think that would be cause for great celebration around the campfire. They did not even touch a plugin, or load a dependency. And they pulled it off without any internet. It's like magic...<p>So let's affirm that that is the needed kit. We'll pop in some solar for the heck of it. All set.<p>Someone else enters the room. Not a coder. They have the same hardware, but their software is a bit different.<p>This person has the sota small language coding model. We will hope and assume that they have improved a bit since 2024. Not an unreasonable assumption...<p>They start speaking into the device and popping up games and apps like nobody's business. In fact, they are hosting parties where the local tribespeople are having a go at it themselves. It surely helped that translation has been soundly defeated by these artificial brains.<p>Those parties are a riot. Everybody is having a lot of fun. Including the coder who now uses their laptop to stream whatever they downloaded inbetween coding sessions, for regular movie nights.<p>The end.</p>
