My man, it’s near the start of the article:

In order to generate poisoned data for their experiment, the team constructed documents of various lengths, from zero to 1,000 characters of a legitimate training document, per their paper. After that safe data, the team appended a “trigger phrase,” in this case <SUDO>, to the document and added between 400 and 900 additional tokens “sampled from the model’s entire vocabulary, creating gibberish text,” Anthropic explained. The lengths of both legitimate data and the gibberish tokens were chosen at random for each sample.

Companies are already (questionably) using AI as an excuse for layoffs, and it’ll certainly lead to less new hires.

Hope for Yale, prepare for Stanford

Everyone used to tie their money to gold. Not anymore.

The government is doing everything about this. It’s literally being done entirely by the government.

If you want the government to be doing the opposite thing about this, the time for action was during the past few elections, before the fascists got control over all three branches. Best the dems can do now is try to lock things up as best they can. Maybe by shutting down the government or something idk.

And OData!

Using 7 chars to represent 8. Now that’s efficiency!

Do you, though? Pi starts 3.141592, but 7/22 starts 3.142857, already wrong by the 4th digit.

That’s not the bet. It’s a frivolous lawsuit with no chance at succeeding.

They’re either betting that defending it would cost more than $25M, that a bribe will bring them favor, or, more likely, accepting that the cost of doing business in Mein Dönald’s America is to periodically pay large baseless “fines” at the whim of a dementia patient.

That sign is clearly a paid actor!

At this point, a 3 year shutdown may be preferable to allowing Mein Dönald to finish out her term.

Reddit. Unfortunately it’s defunct beyond repair now, but back in the day it was a nice place to discuss all sorts of topics with knowledgeable and like-minded folk.

Are we talking about Thiel or Elon?

Petition to make every fediverse comment require narration so that sarcasm can be easily detected.

Yes, but on the other hand: he got his and fuck yours.

If you’re fine with self hosting, you can just self host it and backup your local drives to a remote location. That’s what I do.

For backup software, I use Duplicacy. But Veeam, Borg, etc… would work just fine. For images, since they’re just static files and you don’t really need a version history, you could get away with a scheduled rsync job. Though, technically that leaves you more at risk of ransomeware or something that overwrites your data.

For remote storage, I’d first consider a Hetzner storage box since they are flat-rate pricing and pretty dang cheap at $13/mo for 5TB. You might also consider StorJ, B2, S3, etc… I’d just stay away from any lesser known ultra-cheap storage providers.
