@Daojoan@mastodon.social 'AI' seems uniquely bad because of the very high cost of entry. VCs are far more cowardly herd animal and much less adventurous than advertised across the board; but that matters less when the cost of entry is close to zero and the burn rate is a handful of developer salaries; while it is the single concern when you need to set a billion dollars on fire just to sit at the table.

@zackwhittaker@mastodon.social Along with the issue where copilot could 'summarize' files without access to those files showing up in the audit log; it looks alarmingly like copilot-related controls don't actually control copilot, just try to pick up the pieces after the fact.

@cR0w Having a 9.3 in your captive portal is really impeccable &quot;&quot;None of you seem to understand. I&#39;m not locked in here with you. You&#39;re locked in here with me&quot; execution.

@amanda@social.spejset.org It's exceptionally odd how 'AI' has managed to(in some circles) totally flip the implications that existed around search engines. "let me google that for you" was understood as a blunt rebuke that you were asking a question so trivial that it was basically an insult; and, even back when google tried to be useful, returning raw search engine output was a deliberate slap in the face. The Harvard Business review piece on 'workslop' has less...

@josephcox In fairness; a bot that is sabotaging facebook ranks ahead of a facebook employee on 'alignment' with humanity at large.

@GossiTheDo &quot;What if we could take assuming that people with bigger fiefdoms are more important and apply it to the ones who don&#39;t even have direct reports?&quot; Someone may have been in management a little too long.

@cR0w &quot;the standard for execution must be absolute&quot;; so obviously agentic everywhere, for reliability.

Does anyone know if there have been any recent incidents with .rdp phishing? It&#39;s been known for ages that getting someone to accept a connection with &#39;drives&#39; included goes badly; so I was surprised when they just suddenly, with little notice, added a first .rdp scary warning and per-publisher resource options(still no option to just allowlist specific publishers for your environment, it seems). Normally they roll that sort of thing out fairly slowly; so I&#39;m won...

@GossiTheDog Not a huge surprise, with bankers and suits; but what always baffles me is how &#39;AI&#39; means that the sky is falling and it&#39;s a totally new world or something; but we&#39;re just awash in a sea of low-hanging security improvements that the people who care are just screaming futilely into the void about. Not even gearhead stuff(though there is that as well); but &#39;vaguely competent IT minion does inventory&#39; level problems get zero interest.

Probably too soon to actually be connected with the recent &quot;Ex-Google boss confirmed as new BBC director general&quot; incident; but has the feel of a good fish-rotting-from-the-head behavior that you&#39;d catch from ex-google leadership.

I&#39;m not sure if &quot;sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate&quot; is going to end up as this round&#39;s &quot;you go to war with the army you have&quot; or if we&#39;ll be getting something yet worse soon enough.

On the subject of &quot;contrafactual tracks to soothe auditors&quot;; it seems immediately obvious that Minor Threat&#39;s &quot;Insider Threat&quot; and The Beach Boys&#39; &quot;Shodan Safari&quot; would qualify. Any other good candidates?
