LOL, they asked AI for possible fixes and that's what it told them.

But, I was assured that open software solved security problems (that didn't exist on Linux anyway.)

In a survey conducted earlier this month of firms using AI since early 2022 in the Richmond, Virginia region, 45 per cent said they were automating tasks to reduce staffing and labour costs. Try not to be shocked

Not all, but many will end having big problems and let see if they survive the next 5 years.

1790: so what this new machine going to do?
I will allow 1 person to make fabric as fast as 10 people
oh, what will the other 9 people do?
I don't know, but I will pay you 1.2% more
1980s: what do you mean we don't need the lino type machines any more.
Oh we also only need like 1 out of 5 people to do this new machine and get even more newspapers made

I'm probably just getting old and crotchety but I am not a fan of this whole AI hype thing.
There are arenas where it's surprisingly useful, but people want to employ it everywhere.
Fortunately, if it's anything like other tech bubbles it will eventually burst and at least some sanity will carry the day.

I don't disagree. I think AI is in it's infancy and the hype is off the charts and ridiculous.
That being said... I'm probably just getting old and crotchety but my opinion of my cow-orkers (to borrow a Scott Adams term) has been plummeting lately. Seems like the average work ethic and IQ have dropped significantly. It's doubtful, but maybe the threat of being replaced by AI will trigger a response.

I find myself starting to think like that, and I relegate that stuff to "intrusive thought" status.
I've found that it's too easy to
A) let it go to one's head, such that you decide you're "better" than other folks
B) get miserable, having to face the fact that everyone I work with is basically useless.
It's easy to remember the bad stuff. The good stuff tends to be business as usual, and so it's kind of a downhill trajectory without actively putting the brakes on and reassessing.
All that said, you're not necessarily wrong, but if that's the case, you might look for a different place to work.

It told me Lake Baikal was 500,000 sq Km.
Oddly I went and searched again to try and screenshot that, but neither google nor bing opted to give me the AI summary.

In recent times, open-source developers have been met with an uptick in receiving debatable or, in some cases, outright bogus CVE reports filed for their projects without confirmation. Are read-only bugs still bugs?
Posted not so much for this particular incident, but how it seems to be an example of a new attack on projects: file a security report on them. Like swatting, but for code.

If they can't hack it, better "take it down" by all necessary means, so that people download another one that got hacked

That's an apt metaphor I think.
It's relatively easy, too, just point a code scanner at it. There isn't a single one that won't false-positive. I'm not sure it'd even be possible to build that. You'd need too much context about use-case which isn't going to be in the code. So yeah, just like swatting or DMCA takedown as side-channel attack.
Ooo... not specifically to bolster AI, but it would be a good idea maybe to have language features which did that.
In C# it might could be done with attributes. The attributes would be different ways to add that context.

Here's an idea... Say you did do exactly that... you mined a coin in a very novel way.
Since they are uniquely identifiable, you'd in a way be creating a kind of crypto-art.
That is, your coins may actually be worth more kinda like real coin misprints and such can command more than face value.
"Yes, but these coins were mined with an array of valves."
Proof of authenticity is hairy, but still.

Russian hackers who broke into Microsoft's systems and spied on staff inboxes earlier this year also stole emails from its customers, the tech giant said on Thursday, around six months after it first disclosed the intrusion. That's Microsoft's job

Any hacker who reads my emails would probably die of boredom.

The decision to withhold Apple Intelligence from EU countries amounts to a “stunning open declaration” of anticompetitive behavior, according to the bloc’s vice-president and competition regulator Margrethe Vestager. They were looking forward to suing Apple for anti-competitive behavior for shipping Apple Intelligence
