AI’s Biggest Security Threat May Be Quantum Decryption

an absolutely wild grab-bag of words. the more you know about each piece, the more surreal the sentence becomes. unintentional art!

that's why you should keep your at-risk data on quantum ai blockchain!!~

"and if we're making a ton of money tomorrow, just imagine 3 months from now!"

I asked the other day whether they've actually spoken with these people that they keep posting such takes about, and thus far my presumption is "they haven't". posts like the above reinforce that view

oi no spoilers ;p

I’ve learned so much langdesign and stuff over the years simply by hanging around plt nerds, didn’t even need to spend for a single dragon book!

gigabyte selling shovels (and not even just random shovels, specialty shovels that need a fixed type of mobo to use)

not gonna spend much effort on it now but if someone runs into an actual worthwhile review showing training performance numbers I'd be keen to see (my expectations are that it still does not do very much, and that runtime quality still underperforms relative to VC-subsidised platforms)
