Read more of my #AI predictions #blog I wrote last year, "Local-first AI won't become mainstream because the public demands privacy it’ll grow quietly, in the margins, because a small number of builders reject the system. Centralized models will continue to expand, wrapped in convenience and sanctioned by law, politics, and profit." 📕🔗 https://t.co/f8hRTLia8A Blog is almost at 100K visits since last year, nice!

Wow, what ever could be the problem @comcast seriously come on.

Starting this Sunday, May 24th, the WesterosCraft server will shutdown to start the 1.21 update. The server will be offline for a few days while I implement a number of changes, and will have a new join IP when its back up.

Here confirming I am in fact alive and as well as you can be after getting an organ taken out of your body. I'm going back to sleep now. ✌️

Build in the dark. No threads about your "journey." No "5 things I learned." Ship the thing. Let people find it. If it's good they come. If not, build the next one.

@comcast your AI outage "detector" is terrible. It prevents single user outages for contracting you. You call the 1800, it hangs up on your customer. You use the web chatbot it tells you to restart your router. Repeat while service is out for days.

[Will Blew @willblew]

Woah, no way. If only there were very clear studies of why having goals that dont actually measure real impacts is bad.

Someone just poisoned the Python package that manages AI API keys for NASA, Netflix, Stripe, and NVIDIA.. 97 million downloads a month.. and a simple pip install was enough to steal everything on your machine.

The attacker picked the one package whose entire job is holding every AI credential in the organization in one place. OpenAI keys, Anthropic keys, Google keys, Amazon keys… all routed through one proxy. All compromised at once.

The poisoned version was published straight to PyPI.. no code on GitHub.. no release tag.. no review. Just a file that Python runs automatically on startup. You didn’t need to import it. You didn’t need to call it. The malware fired the second the package existed on your machine.

The attacker vibe coded it… the malware was so sloppy it crashed computers.. used so much RAM a developer noticed their machine dying and investigated. They found LiteLLM had been pulled in through a Cursor MCP plugin they didn’t even know they had.

That crash is the only reason thousands of companies aren’t fully exfiltrated right now. If the code had been cleaner nobody notices for weeks. Maybe months.

The attack chain is the part that gets worse every sentence.

TeamPCP compromised Trivy first. A security scanning tool. On March 19. LiteLLM used Trivy in its own CI pipeline… so the credentials stolen from the SECURITY product were used to hijack the AI product that holds all your other credentials.

Then they hit GitHub Actions. Then Docker Hub. Then npm. Then Open VSX. Five package ecosystems in two weeks. Each breach giving them the credentials to unlock the next one.

The payload was three stages.. harvest every SSH key, cloud token, Kubernetes secret, crypto wallet, and .env file on the machine.. deploy privileged containers across every node in the cluster.. install a persistent backdoor waiting for new instructions.

TeamPCP posted on Telegram after: “Many of your favourite security tools and open-source projects will be targeted in the months to come.. stay tuned.”

Every AI agent, copilot, and internal tool your company shipped this year runs on hundreds of packages exactly like this one… nobody chose to install LiteLLM on that developer’s machine. It came in as a dependency of a dependency of a plugin. One compromised maintainer account turned the entire trust chain into a credential harvesting operation across thousands of production environments in hours.

The companies deploying AI the fastest right now have the least visibility into what’s underneath it.
