In practice I feel like it’s a romantic quality, i.e. “since we are both non-binary, I feel we understand each other and I feel especially safe with you, and in fact this type of relationship is the only one I would want”,

That does sound a lot like demisexual to me.

If you call yourself homosexual I worry that some people might misinterpret it and try and figure out a binary gender for you, which is unhelpful.

You could just say you're attracted to other enbies if someone asks? One word labels aren't always the most important thing.

Luna did not reach the decision entirely unprompted. Conversation logs between the lab and Luna show that the agent had created an attendance policy but later lost track of it, allowing the employee's lateness to continue for months. Andon Labs eventually asked Luna to search her memory for its policies and assess whether the worker was still a good fit.

Luna agreed that the employee should be let go.

Petersson added. "But what we've seen in this experiment is not that the AI would be more ruthless or be worse for the employee in that decision."

No, what we've seen is the LLM not actually doing the managing, and just agreeing with a human prompting it.

LLMs are excellent at agreeing with the people promting them.

I have no idea whether $100k is a sensible budget for starting a store, but they note that it isn't profitable.

Batteries are far heavier. There's going to be as many motors are there are propellers, it really doesn't make sense to do otherwise.

In the shower is where I politely turn down women imaginarily hitting on me, on the grounds that I'm married irl.

I'm all out of entertaining things to say! Have a great week.

Yes, it did, and that's what I suspected, but I saw other possible interpretations and ironically, I didn't want to assume. Sorry for being annoying. I only meant any of this for fun and didn't mean to offend or frustrate you.

I was hoping your reply would be something like "am woman" in which case I was planning to tell you that in real life it feels like a majority of the women that I thought were really really cool but who I didn't feel inclined towards romantically turned out to be uninterested in my entire gender romantically, so I was going to assume that you are also really cool even though my maths teacher was very insistent that correlation does not imply causation.

I assert that your "I have good news for your wife, then!" answer fits with my correlation.

If your reply was "you're really rubbish at flirting" I was planning on responding with "everybody wins".

I was hoping to come up with something amusingly self deprecating if it was along the lines of "I'm specifically not interested in you", but I hadn't got as far as thinking through that answer, hoping it wasn't that.

As you can see I'm not all that great at this social interaction thing. Genuinely sorry to have annoyed you.

...which is?

Well, I like yours too, but don't remind my wife of that. She's just not a fan of me flirting with other men.

After all, why wouldn't Microsoft use copilot to wrote their press releases?

"To address this class of risk, we use a defense-in-depth strategy with safeguards that block malicious instructions at multiple points and help keep tasks aligned with users’ requests,” Microsoft said.

Keep talks aligned with users' requests?!? We're doomed!

“We encourage customers to install the latest updates, use multiple layers of security protection, treat content from unknown sources with caution, and review AI-generated content before using or sharing it.”

No, no you don't, you encourage customers to spend more to give copilot access to all of SharePoint and all of Exchange, so they can replace human competency, human expertise and long standing employees with copilot until they're dependent on your ever-pricier subscription and you can raise prices until you recover your vast and incomprehensible LLM losses from your customers.

“Separating instructions from data may be part of the solution, but I think the distinction between data and instructions is not always clear in real-world workflows. For example, a user may ask an agent to arrange a business trip, requiring the agent to retrieve an email specifying the approved itinerary and a document containing the booking procedure,” Måløy [vulnerability researcher and discloser] said.

Or you could hire a PA, who wouldn't spread the already live copilot worm.

A bunch of security experts note that distinguishing between instructions and data is a solved problem with SQL injection attacks, but completely unsolved in LLMs:

“None of them are rewarding that work commercially right now, so treat that as a multi-year research problem, not something a CISO should wait on.”

Is this a minor technical issue or a major problem? It's a major problem.

Mike Wilkes, enterprise CISO at Aikido Security, said it would be difficult to overstate the potential problems from this situation.

Just as well trains and other vehicles don't have roofs then.

Fun fact: Unlike natural gas, which needs enough oxygen and enough gas to explode, hydrogen is explosive at almost any concentration of hydrogen and oxygen!

Boom! Woohoo!

No. No it isn't. That's not how it's made and not how it's used. Its overwhelmingly made by the fossil fuel industry and calling it green in any sense is just greenwashing mostly the worst environmental problem generators the world knows.
