No, AI Is Not "Autonomously Hacking" with Cal Newport
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/70064423
In this week’s Better Offline, Ed talks with computer science professor and writer Cal Newport about what the recent AI hacking incidents actually mean, why we should stop referring to LLMs as AI, and what the post-bubble world looks like for LLMs.

Regardless of what actually happened, the company openly and proudly admitted to committing a crime. Company needs to be shut down, people making decisions need to be arrested, and we need to use civil asset forfeiture to take every fucking thing they have just like we do to everyday regular people who break the law.

Kinda off topic but I stopped listening to Better Offline on Spotify because it’s by far the most ad saturated podcast there.
