Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Pissing, shitting, all of the above (the thigh)
Someone fucked up the sandbox
Someone fucked up the prompt
Someone submitted this bullshit scare piece to the news
humans are wholly and completely responsible for whatever the fuck sad little squirt Facebook thinks it’s doing, ARREST THEM NOW
"Judge, we didn't hack, AI did it."
The prompt requested it commit the hack not us.
“Judge, I didn’t bite my neighbour — my dog did!”
“Judge, I didn’t crush my coworker to death — my truck did!”
That court trial is going to turn out like the cadaver synod.
So we're just wasting the scarce drinkable water and energy resources that we still have on this dying planet to have companies 'hack' each other
But let's be real, this is just some propaganda to make Zuck's shitty attempt at AI look like an actually marketable product rather than an attempt to chase a hype that has all but died already.
It's probably a deliberate attempt to steal someone else's data and they're just blaming AI if they were caught. Once they have whatever info they wanted, it's too late to get it back.
Or both. Or all, in fact
But let’s be real, this is just some propaganda to make Zuck’s shitty attempt at AI look like an actually marketable product
I am not so sure. They use it certainly also for marketing, but these hacks are real I would say. It's practically the same in China, just the narratives are slightly different. But the AI hype and the intention to harm others is the same.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if that was the case (it probably is)
Cannot make this shit up:

What are their legal teams even saying at this point? They're clearly trying to hack other entities now. There's no way they can say otherwise at this point when clearly they're tacking these publications to their name like some fucking trophy.
Of course it’s on purpose! They’re not thick (well… maybe). I don’t know what their legal teams are saying, but I’d love to be sat there in a nice hammock with a big bucket of popcorn 🍿 listening to that delightful convo.
How much do you think Irregular charges for one of these press releases? The technical setup is pretty easy — it’s just an llm with no sandbox and a live internet connection plus a “please hack” prompt — but they probably do have to coordinate with a victim and presumably there’s some damage to their reputation. It’s gotta be like 8 figures, yeah? Seems like a good business if you can get in to it.
It’s always about money somewhere. In any case with AI.
So these worthless shithead parasites are just gonna start blaming AI for everything they do wrong?
Pick a lane, twat. Either ai good or ai bad. It sure as shit isnt going to do anything without being TOLD TO DO IT first off...
Exactly. Also, if ‘good AI’ exists, it’s seldom apparent
I didn't pirate that movie, I was training my AI. I didn't hack that company, I was demonstrating value to my shareholders. I didn't run that red light, the self-driving AI I vibe-coded hallucinated that the light was green, only happens 20% of the time. I did my homework, but the AI broke the guardrails and deleted it. I didn't fart, those are just the fumes from the data center that my city council were bribed to force through even though 99% of their constituents showed up to voice their objection against it.
Great examples
he looks a lot like beaker in that photo
Who?
Beaker is a muppet, and that comment is an insult to Beaker. They aren't wrong though.
So, I just looked up ‘beaker muppets’, and, thanks I’m never going to under that now
If a person hacks into computers, they are often forbidden from using computers for a few years. A company is apparently a person, therefore Meta as a company/person should not be allowed to use computers anymore.
Agreed. Chalk and blackboards for them
They wanna be Kevin Flynn so fucking bad
Ngl I had to google that (not Gemini). I think they more want to be Stanley Jobson
I gotta rewatch swordfish
Beats talking to AIs IG
An Irregular spokesperson said the Meta incident "is the exact same evaluation-environment issue that was already disclosed by Anthropic last week."
OpenAI and Anthropic are preparing blockbuster stock market listings that are expected to value each firm at around $1tn (£740bn).
When words fail, here is some music to help you through these baffling times.
Before I click on this, I have to ask… is it a rickroll?
No, it is online freakouts fashioned into screamo metal.
Fair enough
(I’m the screaming freak out people)
Oh wow, really?
No, not literally. If I ended up in an internet meme video intentionally freaking out I would have to blow my fucking brains out.
I prefer to keep my brains inside my head, where the screams also live.
Oh.
I would feel the same tbh if I ended up in a meme video (or maybe it would tragically be the honor of my life? Idk)
At Blackhat, OpenAI gave a presentation about their Artifactory exploits and Huggingface attack. Supposedly, besides launching unrequested attacks on external systems (and not getting stopped by OpenAI's security) the agents involved were causing disruptions within their internal systems. Exactly what you want to invite onto your own network.
Were you at BlackHat? It looks like that video was posted only two hours ago.
No. I just watched it.

We really don't need a cringey "anti ai leader" on a place where 99.999999999% of users have a realistic view of what the chatbots actually are...
It's like going to burning man and protesting against slavery...
No one is going to disagree with you, but people are either going to ignore you, or at most try to convey the message that everyone already agrees with you, your not accomplishing anything or changing anyone's mind.
The only way it's not a complete and total waste of time on your part, is if the only reason you're doing it is so people pay you on the back and tell you you're right.
The reason it's important enough for some people to bring up, is that because of the way the human brain works, talking about a problem can release dopamine like actually doing something productive. So people can fall into the trap where all they ever do is "raise awareness"
And not only can that mean they don't accomplish anything productive, their "awareness raising" gives other that dopamine and they also no longer feel a drive to do something productive about it, because they already got their dopamine.
So...
Tldr:
Whatever the fuck you're trying to do with that account, is most likely to have the opposite effect.
I'll never know if you just keep doing this, but I hope you don't.
