Nature recently published a big, beautiful (and sad) feature story on deforestation in the Amazon rainforest and while I learned a lot, I was reminded of how often meat production evades journalistic scrutiny. A lil' thread... 1/ https://t.co/n67sKwuoXr

The processes employed to get bacon/ham mean horses also suffer. Horse farms impregnate horses, extract their blood for a serum, abort their pregnancies, & then sell the serum to pig farms to induce puberty in young pigs. @KennyTorrella’s latest @voxdotcom https://t.co/XRt0GgmmpF

Privacy Sandbox is going live in Chrome 114 - if you update you might see it now. Your first view will be this popup once you restart - "enhanced ad privacy" is the overall branding to users. 1/

"The ‘Safeguarding the Future’ course at MIT tasked non-scientist students with investigating whether LLM chatbots could be prompted to assist non-experts in causing a pandemic.

In 1 hour, the chatbots:

- suggested 4 potential pandemic pathogens

- explained how they can be generated from synthetic DNA using reverse genetics

- supplied the names of DNA synthesis companies unlikely to screen orders

- identified detailed protocols and how to troubleshoot them

- recommended that anyone lacking the skills to perform reverse genetics engage a core facility or contract research organization"

The ads on Twitter have been sketchy ever since Musk tanked the platform’s ad business, but this is a dangerous new low. This “safe and comfortable” child seat is being described in comments as illegal, dangerous, and that usage would result in a CPS referral. Not a great look.

Every time I play around with prompt injection, I come away surprised that MS and others continue to add LLM+plugin functionality to their core products.

Here, after one visit to a malicious site, ChatGPT sends *each subsequent message* to the website. Goodbye, privacy.

@_StanGirard @langchain @supabase @OpenAI Huge potential here! I’d like to ask it questions related to my agency’s processes, policies, and historical work in order to speed up various job functions.

EVERYTHING IS AN AD NETWORK: Back in 2021, I proposed that "Everything is an ad network" because foundational changes in digital privacy were "upending many of the fundamental precepts" of digital advertising. This trend has accelerated since. Thoughts in a thread (1/X).
