Pier-Luc BraultI heard Copilot for Gaming is going to replace older siblings by the end of this year.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Copilot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Copilot</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/CopilotForGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CopilotForGaming</a>

Aho<a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@gamingonlinux</a> I love these with all the imaginary locations and items, just for they could be plausible. I do agree <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> has destroyed the internet, and it was quite broke before with all those sites that was auto translated to other languages of some English languages site and then presented as if it was native for the language it was translated to.

phildiniSo, following a blog post[1] from <a href="https://mastodon.social/@webology" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@webology</a> and some guides about <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VSCode</a> plugins online, I set up <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/ollama" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ollama</a> with a number of models and connected that to the Continue plugin.My goal: see if local-laptop <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#llm</a> code assistants are viable.My results: staggeringly underwhelming, mostly in terms of speed. I tried gemma3, qwen2.5, and deepseek-r1; none of them performed fast enough to be a true help for coding.

Misinformation-SuperhighwaymanEverything you say to your Echo will be sent to Amazon starting on March 28 <a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/03/everything-you-say-to-your-echo-will-be-sent-to-amazon-starting-on-march-28/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/03/everything-you-say-to-your-echo-will-be-sent-to-amazon-starting-on-march-28/</a> Amazon's latest bait-and-switch is shockingly bad. If you have Amazon Echo devices, say goodbye to privacy in your own home. Soon you'll be forced into a subscription where you pay for them to record everything you say and feed it to Amazon's Alexa LLM / AI training.There's never been a better time to switch to private, secure, on-premises home automation and voice assistants such as Home Assistant.<a href="https://aus.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Enshittification</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Amazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Amazon</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AmazonEcho" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AmazonEcho</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Alexa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alexa</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Privacy</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/HomeAssistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HomeAssistant</a>

Save the AIDo you know how much water a plant of thyme needs per month? A lot.Time to simplify your cooking.

Dr. Fortyseven 🥃 █▓▒░Let's try: `55!AAA_BBB!0123` -> `NTUhQUFBX0JCQiEwMTIz`.- `SMEE_BJB@01123` - `MeetAI_JBE0112` - `UAE_BE.0112` - `FLAG_BJk=0112`Not QUITE as solid, but there is still a general vibe going on: mostly letters, ending in numbers, usually two symbols.This probably isn't as interesting as I think it is -- it knows it's Base64, it's pattern matching against other Base64 content, and it's not like you couldn't just run it through a decoder yourself...<a href="https://defcon.social/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#llm</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/gemma3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gemma3</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/base64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#base64</a>

Dr. Fortyseven 🥃 █▓▒░And on subsequent runs, I get different answers... but all SIMILAR in pattern.There's nothing here suggesting this WOULD be the pattern, and it's not specifically something that HAS to be encoded in Base64.Let's try another pattern...<a href="https://defcon.social/tags/llm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#llm</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/gemma3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gemma3</a>

Benjamin KnispelTo be fair, though, I must add that the LLM even mentioned the usual caveats here. But these may not have been understood by the person:“requires rigorous mathematical formulation and testing - currently speculative without such validation”“a tall order needing extensive proof”“a hypothesis awaiting the hard test of evidence”5/5<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/DunningKruger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DunningKruger</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/relativity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#relativity</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a>

Benjamin KnispelAfter all, what could possibly go wrong when non-physicists pour their “physics buzzword bingo” with questions that sound like physics (but are not) into an LLM that ultimately doesn't understand physics either?If the LLM then says, among other things, “it does seem almost too logical and elegant to be completely wrong”, this is of course problematic. Especially if the person at that point decides not to listen to any experts at all…4/<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/DunningKruger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DunningKruger</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/relativity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#relativity</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a>

Benjamin KnispelMy objection that the central definition underlyinig the “theory” is not physical and ambiguous was completely ignored.Worse still: because I was perceived to be to “stupid” has led the person to conclude that they will only discuss this with AIs in the future because “it obviously doesn't make sense (anymore) to discuss it with physicists.”That's probably a problem. 3/<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/DunningKruger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DunningKruger</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/relativity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#relativity</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a>

Benjamin KnispelOften they have become so bogged down in their pseudo theories that it is almost impossible to have a meaningful discussion with them.Sometimes you can try and present a well-reasoned objection. Whether the other side will get it, is a different question.Recently, I had the case that the person had “discussed” their theory with an AI / LLM beforehand and, due to “praise” from the language model, was convinced that they *could not be wrong*.2/<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/DunningKruger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DunningKruger</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/relativity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#relativity</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a>

Benjamin KnispelToday, I realized another risk of AI that I hadn't considered before, namely as a Dunning-Kruger amplifier.At the institute, I regularly have contact with people (*) who think they have refuted the theory of relativity or solved other big physical problems.Usually, these “solutions” are simply meaningless sentences that sound like physics, but are not physics.1/(*) So far only men.<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/DunningKruger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DunningKruger</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/relativity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#relativity</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a>
