I wonder how long until Xitter does this sort of thing to the EU Disease Information account:

Community Note:

Covid 19 is not real.

I feel like that level of misinformation is now possible there.

I don't think the people still on X are going to be listening to the EU disease agency account.

They should (as you say) go where the people are... Which is threads and BlueSky. Follow the crowd.

I get the feeling the BlueSky vs Threads thing will take a while to resolve.

Yes, it's in the air, it's in what he says, the lies he tells, and whose emotions they're aimed at. It's in the American exceptionalism he sells.

That's the vision the left has to fit into, and it's been done before. Bernie was doing it in 2016.

Compare that coherent vision of American exceptionalism with this:

Tell lies that make them feel better than the lies the other guy is telling.

The article makes it clear that the Chinese botnet is targeting Microsoft azure accounts, usually for large organizations involved with governments, infrastructure, legal professionals, science and technology.

It also states that the attacks can be disinfected by regularly restarting your router, but that this doesn't prevent reinfection later.

The US intelligence services also says you should regularly restart your phone.

This is Microsoft's posting about it which other news sources are quoting from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2024/10/31/chinese-threat-actor-storm-0940-uses-credentials-from-password-spray-attacks-from-a-covert-network/

It has a recommendations section which suggests "credential hygiene" and strong passwords help.

Oh, so we let Capitalism destroy the planet and the ability to easily grow crops ...and then resort to running around in the heat doing cannibalism?.... do we know they were billionaires at this point, or is there just still enough meat on them to make them worth hunting?

That's the problem with post-Capitalist clarity, it leaves you in a really painful situation, and there may be no other destination possible. It nay be the only place Capitalism ends.

That doesn't even address whether there's a market in human meat and wealthy traders... And how Capitalist that market started. Oh Capitalism may not have ended yet in this scenario....

No it's a huge one, because it's the most likely application of AI, AI site moderation will be the start of AI digital policing a field which risks growing larger and larger until it manifests as actual legal policing.

Do we know how human brains reason? Not really... Do we have an abundance of long chains of reasoning we can use as training data?

...no.

So we don't have the training data to get language models to talk through their reasoning then, especially not in novel or personable ways.

But also - even if we did, that wouldn't produce 'thought' any more than a book about thought can produce thought.

Thinking is relational. It requires an internal self awareness. We can't discuss that in text so much that a book is suddenly conscious.

This is the idea that"Sentience can't come from semantics"... More is needed than that.
