Everything written by AI boosters tracks much more clearly if you simply replace "AI" with "cocaine".

I shall demonstrate!

(Not linking to OP, because it's trash.)

"Let’s pretend you’re the only person at your company using cocaine.

You decide you’re going to impress your employer, and work for 8 hours a day at 10x productivity. You make everyone else look terrible by comparison. [...]

In this scenario, you capture 100% of the value from your adopting cocaine."

Is End-to-End Encryption Optional For Large Groups?

One of the recent topics in Messaging App Discourse is whether it makes sense to prioritize End-to-End Encryption when searching for an alternative to Discord. Who's Saying "No"? I'm going to quote 0xabad1dea here, because she is awesome and explains my "opposition" position better than anyone else: So You Want To Write An Open Source Discord Replacement Things you don’t need:

Make magic!

had a good conversation earlier that went something like this:

them: “is AI making pentesting easier?”

me: “yes.”

them: “why, because you can use it to look for vulnerabilities in code quicker?”

Now I've heard there was a secret path
The hacker typed and it pleased the app
But you don't really sanitize it, do ya?
It goes like this, dot dot, then slash
Then up a dir, no not to /trash
The filesystem "just doing what I told ya"

../. ./.. /../ ../ ../ ../

OH: "OpenBSD? Ah, das Fischlinux."

Him: well what's your big brain idea to eliminate food assistance fraud?

Me: universal food assistance

Him:

Me: because there wouldn't be a system to cheat, everyone would just get a check

Him: and who does that benefit?

Me: family farmers and human beings who rely on food for nutrition

Him: what about rich people?

Me: what about them?

Him: you would give them food assistance too?

Me: that's what universal means

Him: you can't do that

Me: yesterday you said I couldn't tax them and now you won't let me feed them either?

Him: they can afford food

Me: then it should be fine to tax them

Him: but if you tax them they won't have as much money

Me: I'm willing to offer universal food assistance
