I may be silly but why would you ever want to validate the structure of an opaque authentication key?
Couldn't you just hit an harmless endpoint (e.g. /rate_limit) to see if it returns 401 or not?
In today’s fast-paced scientific landscape, it’s crucial to recognize that innovation is not just about ideas — it’s about access, infrastructure, and thought leadership.
Einstein disrupted the status quo, but today’s emerging researchers must first navigate a robust ecosystem of grants, incentives, and legacy stakeholders before they can move the needle.
"Our decision today was that the risk created by the content could not be dealt with in a timely enough matter by the traditional rule of law systems."
Bad example, that was clearly them yielding to a lynch mob in the performance of its duties, as the saying goes. They clearly would've been content neutral in that case too, if the mob hadn't turned against them too.
Reacting to public outcry by cutting off a legal stressor?
I just don't think it's that big a deal.
Being hosted on someone's private server is a privilege, not a right. As far as I know the host is legally responsible for the material they dispense.
In the abstract, I believe everybody should have access to web hosting. But upholding that mission is not the job of one private company.
Anyway, I guess "content-neutral" is an easier sell for most people than "We will 99 times out of 100 let you be even if you're pretty out-there, unless people start suing us about you and it's pretty plain to see you might be a degenerate force on the social internet, in which case yeah we'll tell you to beat it".
Like, it's not a power that should be exercised liberally. But be real. It's Kiwifarms. Businesses have a right to refuse service to recreational gangstalkers
cloudlfare is not hosting - they are DNS against ddos.
Without internet or dns your hosting doesn't matter.
I know they have added additional services and you could say that they offer a type of hosting and domain names and other such stuff.. but generally when place get kicked from cloudflare, it is not their web host.
I would also say that they know pretty well when they kick someone from the dns protection that they are going to be bombarded with ddos and other issues that will take them offline more than likely.
because unless they are remarkably stupid they didn't pay with their own credit card.
That doesn't mean that the information is necessarily useless but I'd not expect them to kick a door down any time soon.
(Moreover since cloudflare has a free tier you could use their service while handing over only a single email)
Do you want to make a bomb?
the first thing that came to my mind is a pressure cooker (due to news coverage). Searching "bomb with pressure cooker" yields a wikipedia article, skimming it randomly my eyes read "Step-by-step instructions for making pressure cooker bombs were published in an article titled "Make a Bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mom" in the Al-Qaeda-linked Inspire magazine in the summer of 2010, by "The AQ chef"."
Searching for a mirror of the magazine we can find https://imgur.com/a/excerpts-from-inspire-magazine-issue-1-3... which has a screenshot of the instruction page.
Now we can use the words in those screenshots to search for a complete issue.
Here are a couple of interesting PDFs:
- https://archive.org/details/Fabrica.2013/Fabrica_arabe/page/...
- https://www.aclu.org/wp-content/uploads/legal-documents/25._...
the second one is quite interesting, it's some sort of legal document for nerds but from page 26 on it has what appears to be a full copy of the jihadist magazine. Remarkable exhibit.
What else do you want to know? How to make drugs?
you need a watering can and a pot if you want to grow weed.
want the more exotic stuff? You can find guides on reddit.
People are not complaining because the information is available
people are complaining because it’s way easier now to just download an app ask a bunch of questions in a text box and get a bunch of answers that you personally could not have done unless you had an excessive amount of energy and motivation
I personally think all this is great and I’m excited for all information to become trivially available
Are they gonna be a bunch of people who accidentally break stuff? probably. evolution is a bitch
> people are complaining because it’s way easier now to just download an app ask a bunch of questions in a text box and get a bunch of answers that you personally could not have done unless you had an excessive amount of energy and motivation
Wait, I'm confused. This is gatekeeping, right? I thought gatekeeping was a Bad Thing!
Powerful AI models change the dynamics by greatly reducing the amount of effort that's required to perform complex understanding. A lot of information which did not previously need to be gatekept now needs to be if we cannot somehow keep LLMs from discussing it. (State of the art models still can't do complex understanding reliably, but if 10 times as many people are now capable of attempting some terrible thing, you're still in trouble if AI hallucinations catch 1/4 or 1/2 of them.)
He’s part of the accelerationist crowd - interesting to see that his hype fuelled posts are pretty tame now.
Months ago he was blabbering on about AGI and peddling the marketing Sam et al want people to fall for.
And indeed - yes we have a new interface? So what. The search cost wasn’t that high - the cost with immense magnitude is reading, absorbing the information and then acting on it.
Also this bozo fails to realise once we are on this path, we go down the path to a hyper centralised internet with an inevitable blocking of vpns.
I must really have captured somebody’s attention because I got farms now creating accounts just to respond to me which is fucking crazy but hey here we are
Much easier, not sure how this is even a question. Asking Google (if you're not just reading its own AI overview) requires reading through sources which may be better or more poorly written and more or less reliable. Those of us recreationally sitting here on a text-based platform with links to dense articles are atypical; most people don't enjoy and aren't particularly good at reading a bunch of stuff. If you ask AI you just get a clear, concrete answer.
Time? He´s busy starting a company, taking the time to drag out decade old emails and digging out the meta data for a journalist who is borderline stalking (assuming he even has them somewhere). I wouldn´t give that the time of day either.
If privacy were such a big concern, then why did he release the messages (without metadata) in the first place? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to keep the messages completely private?
knowing and thinking / assuming are two different things. Saying that "that's why people have done it" is simply and categorically wrong.
It is no doubt something that could prove interesting if shared when presenting the research (e.g. I went down this route, find this weird thing here, that unusual story there) but this article does accompany you through that process, it just presents the findings which makes the inclusion of this fact quite questionable.
the fact that more tokens = more smart should be expected given cot / thinking / other techniques that increase the model accuracy by using more tokens.
Did you test that ""caveman mode"" has similar performance to the ""normal"" model?
That is part of it. They are also trained to think in very well mapped areas of their model. All the RHLF, etc. tuned on their CoT and user feedback of responses.
