[LLM Security @llm_sec]

* People ask LLMs to write code
* LLMs recommend imports that don't actually exist
* Attackers work out what these imports' names are, and create & upload them with malicious payloads
* People using LLM-written code then auto-add malware themselves

I want to talk about this AI imagery. I'm certified as a kimono consultant in Japan, and this triggered me in all sorts of ways. Let me tell you about some of them. It might look beautiful on the surface, but a lot of strangeness is at play. (1/6

@Ninetail_foxQ Honestly it’s a great metaphor for AI generated images as a whole: a stitched together Thing made of corpses and misunderstandings of corpses, assembled by a creator that understands only surface imitation.

GROUNDBREAKING + EPIC TEST: Bioengineers 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 at CDC conducted world’s 1st “crash test” of Do-It-Yourself (DIY) air purifiers to check if they cab stop viruses 🦠 between test dummies. It’s like NHTSA running crash tests with dummies in cars 🚗 🚙. (1/16) https://t.co/wOR8GtSbvR

I keep thinking I missed my opportunity to short Tesla and then finding out I was wrong.

@McCainJack Those upper playfield loop shots are so hard to get consistently on Black Belt. It feels great when you manage to pass between the upper flippers.

Watching the #Pens game replay and they are on the power play and @erinkpgh says “She doesn’t get eaten by the eels at this time.”

It's not just that gay bars are supposed to be a safe space.

@jwz Friends here say they mostly use IMONEX and Suzo Happ coin mechs

[Jake K @jakekpgh]

@jwz There are prox card and app payment solutions (PayRange) but they take a hefty slice off the top.

[Jake K @jakekpgh]

@jwz We keep our 55 pinball machines on free play because fuck coin jams…and counting quarters…also local laws only require licenses for games on coin-drop, so 🤷🏻‍♂️. Lemme talk to a friend who routes vids…

Vote “as if you’ve never had the chance to do it, and with at least the thought that you might never be able to do it again. Imagine, when that poll worker hands you a ballot, that it’s the last one you’ll ever see. It’s a thought that focuses the mind.” https://t.co/rxj2xSvR6m

@grouchyoldcoot @Kaiser_Drums There’s a few makers in the US and more in Japan. These drums come from Kaiser Drums in Germany. Kaiser drums are well regarded and $:€ right now made it a no brainer.

Exhausted after their international flight and long ride to our place, our new friends are having a quiet moment to sit before moving to their home in Bellevue. @Kaiser_Drums
