on AI staff 'genuinely frightened' for humanity's future, ex-Anthropic researcher tells BBC in c/technology@lemmy.world · 5d ago
All day, every day, exactly 8 hours plus mandatory breaks, employees on autopilot listening on ear buds.
Living under a bridge in a box sounds like a better life.

Again, it was AI answers and a reddit post.

The other day I went to talk to some subject matter expert because I wanted an experienced human’s knowledge and perspective on my problem. They literally just read me Reddit posts and Gemini search results to answer my questions. Even turning their laptop and being like “see?”
What a waste of everyone’s time.

on Dwarf Fortress' creator says the industry's in shambles over AI and layoff-happy CEOs: 'Everyone I know, their bosses are slowly getting psychosis' in c/technology@lemmy.world · 2 Sep 2026
It’s become particularly nasty with generative AI, however, because now said CEOs can still see an end result that mimics the thing they don’t understand—and are able to self-delude themselves into thinking it’s replicable at scale, or that it’s even producing the same quality as the product they’ve actually been selling.
I think that’s well said. The shit that comes out of these things is often “good enough” and until there’s real reckonings with that not actually being good enough, it’s gonna keep going.
I’m waiting on (almost hoping for one sooner rather than later) a large systemic failure that nobody can ignore. Like stock market collapse due to AI agent fuckery or a bridge failure because the engineer just asked ChatGPT to hallucinate a bridge and assume it was good enough.
If not, I wonder if we’ll just have a slow degeneration until nothing makes sense and there’s trash piles everywhere.
Go away, 'baitin

on How terrifying is government mass surveillance? in c/privacy@lemmy.world · 25 Aug 2026
These days, in all seriousness, I’m more afraid of the corpo surveillance. I was there for the PATRIOT ACT, and that “insane” NSA datacenter that everyone freaked out about. Now we have corpos building scale way beyond the NSA.
The government spying also has oddly not had an obvious impact on society in the last 20 years. I think the corpo one will reshape worldwide culture. But yeah, governments will of course take advantage of that cheap surveillance data as well.
Right now anyway, I’m less afraid of imprisonment or violent retaliation than I am of being manipulated or silenced by less forceful means. You can’t imprison a majority of the population, but you can control them through ideas and the ability to communicate.

on Flock Is Quietly Selling Powerful Drones That Scan License Plates From the Sky in c/technology@lemmy.world · 22 Aug 2026
“Normally what would happen… is like one cop would have heard that, flip on the blue lights, race down there… and someone’s about to die,” [Flock CEO Garrett] Langley explained, describing a case in which a woman called 911 on a man, who later turned out to be holding a lighter, not a gun, as initially suspected. “Instead, they launch the drone.”
Langley claimed that “we have thousands and thousands of stories like that where communities are safer now with our drones. They’re safer with our cameras.”
That’s your prime example of a community becoming safer? The cops droning a mf because he lit a cigarette and some Karen panicked? You’re the CEO of the fucking company with like the worst PR and you say this shit.

on Anthropic A.I. Model Finds Flaws in Tough-to-Crack Encryption Algorithms in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Aug 2026
The flaws identified do not concern a cryptographic standard currently in use today, which means that modern banking and communication systems are not subject to immediate potential intrusions from A.I. Instead, Anthropic’s technology cracked a watered-down version of an algorithm for Advanced Encryption Standard, or A.E.S., a ubiquitous protocol that safeguards web traffic, wireless networks, data storage and more.
So not exactly tough-to-crack, eh?
Mythos devised the cryptographic attack on A.E.S. almost entirely autonomously, Anthropic said, but only after first refusing to contemplate the problem because it believed it was impossible to improve on existing methods of analysis. But after some coaxing, the chatbot sat with the puzzle for about a week before engineering its novel attack. Two human researchers then worked for nearly a month to verify that the method appeared correct.
A week of processing? Wish I knew more about these systems. I wouldn’t expect there’s any way a single prompt-to-response took a week. Maybe it’s some complex “agentic” setup that broke the problem out into parts, then worked on each part, validate it, then moved on. But that’s pure speculation on my part.
oh my
