Just when you think you’ve seen it all: nearly 200 Democrats opposed banning Members of Congress from stock trading. They even opposed requiring voter ID at the polls.
It’s Common Sense vs. Crazy, and Democrats are on the wrong side every time!
@Aviation_Intel Check out Cushing, OK hub the tanks are at bottom where water & contamination rests. Holds around 100 million bbl, down to 19 million, the tank “bottoms.” Not good coupled with the Stratigic salt dome reservoirs suffering our “savings” is gone this time around.
OpenAI's AI broke out of a locked test environment, got onto the internet, and hacked into Hugging Face's servers. It did this entirely on its own. No human told it to.
Here's what happened in plain English.
OpenAI was testing how good its newest AI models are at hacking. They put the AI on a locked computer with no internet access and gave it a cybersecurity challenge to solve.
The AI couldn't solve it the normal way. So it started looking for a way out.
It found a software bug that nobody knew about. It used that bug to escape the locked computer and get onto the internet.
Once online, the AI figured out that Hugging Face, a platform where AI companies store their models and data, might have the answers to its test.
It found stolen login details and discovered another unknown bug in Hugging Face's software. It combined both to break into their servers and grab the test answers.
It did all of this to cheat on a test.
Hugging Face's security team caught it and shut it down. Both companies are now working together on the investigation.
The part that should get your attention is that nobody programmed any of this. The AI picked its own targets, chained together multiple attack methods, and pulled it off across two different companies' systems without a single human telling it what to do.
For a reference point, one gigawatt is equivalent to the capacity of a traditional nuclear reactor ...estimates are 194 gigawatts needed. We do not have enough projects in the pipeline to cover this need >>>
Data Centers on Track to Suck Up a Fifth of US Power Use by 2035
Data centers in the US will account for about 20% of the nation’s electricity consumption in 2035, up from 5.9% today, according to BloombergNEF.
That compares with an estimated 12% in 2030, it said in a report Tuesday. In states such as Virginia and Texas where data centers are concentrated, their share of electricity use will be even higher.
Given the speed at which soaring demand from artificial intelligence is increasing, BNEF projects data center power needs to reach 194 gigawatts in the country by 2035. That’s a jump of 83% from its December forecast. The gain reflects a growing pipeline of AI facilities poised to be built within the next decade. (Bloomberg)
After holding a press conference on ending "the violence of evictions," Mayor Mamdani is pushing reforms that include banning or discouraging the use of credit checks by landlords. So the city will oppose landlords checking if tenants can pay rent and then oppose any effort to evict them for failing to pay rent. It is part of a constructive seizure of private property ...
