Don't get caught up in the AI terror hype. It's all about getting investors to dump more funds into businesses that are still in the red. They're just keeping the AI bubble going as long as possible.

These companies would likely need to close in days if not overnight if their investors pulled out immediately due to fear. This situation rhymes with the dotcom era. They all see a future with AI and a real technology, but they don't have a business model that's currently profitable using it, but they're expanding like they're ultra successful and pretend theyll get investor cash forever. It will run out.

The Huggingface hack is more the result of engineers asking AI to hack stuff, then being surprised when it hacked stuff. It wasn't just some weird AI deciding to hack things on its own. They were literally testing it in hacking.

They told it to hack stuff to win points, it decided to hack something else, it worked, and then they called it world news.

Not all hacks involve super crazy techniques. This isn't some super intelligence that can escape containment and spread itself. It's more than when you ask it to hack shit, sometimes it will, because not all hacks are that hard to pull off. If you can read and write code, you can pull off a lot of webapp hacks. I am not surprised, scared, or shocked at all.

This news is just more bullshit meant to make you think they've hit some new super intelligent level they haven't. LLM is a real and good technology that can be useful, but it's not a godlike super intelligence.

They just take advantage of people not understanding it's capabilities and hoping that investors throw more cash at them because they have a super weapon, or AGI, or self improving ASI that will change everything. the cash will eventually stop flowing and this news will fizzle out with, "... What the fuck was that AI craze of the 2020's? Why did we get tricked?"
