CFP for #OffensiveCon26 Tokyo edition is STILL open.
We're looking for real, original work: cutting-edge security research, novel exploit techniques and deep technical investigations that actually move the field forward.
And yes, AI it's also in the game.

So, if I understand correctly, a bunch of elected politicians said ‘okay, we identified that the things Facebook and friends are doing is actively harmful to their users. So what we’re going to do to mitigate this is ensure that, legally speaking, the only people who can experience these negative effects are people of voting age.’
wow, discord acknowledged on the Bad Place that it was true that an overfitted CSAM detection AI started flagging grids (spreadsheets, game inventory screenshots, etc) as illegal and instabanning people.
8200 people got banned this way over several weeks before someone managed to get their attention on reddit. But the good news is they have in fact manually rolled back all the bans.
On the one hand, this is the one problem where you absolutely want as little hands-on human moderation as possible. On the other, this is a very clear-cut overfitting failure mode on a small dataset (of the images that governments provide to major websites for automated detection) with disastrous consequences for random innocent people. And they presumably had to go back and manually check all bans in this category for the last few weeks, thus maximizing the moderators' exposure too. 🤦♀️
Just one more show option bro. One more show option will fix it.
