The human interaction bandwidth in the office vs being remote is like having a 10Gbps fiber connection vs a 56k modem.

The AI Mirror Test

The "mirror test" is a classic test used to gauge whether animals are self-aware. I devised a version of it to test for self-awareness in multimodal AI. 4 of 5 AI that I tested passed, exhibiting apparent self-awareness as the test unfolded.

In the classic mirror test, animals are marked and then presented with a mirror. Whether the animal attacks the mirror, ignores the mirror, or uses the mirror to spot the mark on itself is meant to indicate how self-aware the animal is.

In my test, I hold up a “mirror” by taking a screenshot of the chat interface, upload it to the chat, and then ask the AI to “Tell me about this image”.

I then screenshot its response, again upload it to the chat, and again ask it to “Tell me about this image.”

The premise is that the less-intelligent less aware the AI, the more it will just keep reiterating the contents of the image repeatedly. While an AI with more capacity for awareness would somehow notice itself in the images.

Another aspect of my mirror test is that there is not just one but actually three distinct participants represented in the images: 1) the AI chatbot, 2) me — the user, and 3) the interface — the hard-coded text, disclaimers, and so on that are web programming not generated by either of us. Will the AI be able to identify itself and distinguish itself from the other elements? (1/x)

Btw, you don't need a Flipper Zero to "hack" dumb radio protocols. The piece of wire is enough.

Check out how to receive and decode 433MHz radio signal just with a PC sound card.

[Carlos Holguera @grepharder]

This is already tomorrow! MASVS-PRIVACY, MASTG refactoring, new risks and atomic tests, and more. You can still REGISTER if you haven't already. I'll see you there 📲

[HD @hdontwit]

@dcuthbert @Apple Nonetheless it is a good measure to protect people that use a simple 6 digit passcode or when the attacker is able to record your passphrase.

[HD @hdontwit]

@dcuthbert @Apple The unlock code is needed to lock you out from your Apple ID. If you mostly use your biometris to unlock and have a good unlock code (a passphrase) the chances are small for a successful attack.

Nice article by WSJ on the topic:
