I had the opportunity to spend a day utilizing a remarkable ChatGPT, and I was truly amazed by its capabilities. However, at the same time, I felt completely creeped out by its abilities. The ChatGPT was able to understand and respond to my requests with incredible precision, but it also made me question the potential consequences of advanced AI. Overall, it was a fascinating experience that left me in awe and discomfort. #AI #ChatGPT #OpenAI

After spending countless hours talking to GPT over the past week, I can confidently say that it is a master at BS-ing. In fact, I think it could give a professional politician a run for their money.

Cisco Talos has discovered that phishing campaigns using the Qakbot malware are using Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) images embedded in HTML email attachments. This HTML smuggling technique allows attackers to evade email gateways by storing binary code as JavaScript that is decoded and downloaded when opened via a web browser. The malicious code is executed when the victim opens the HTML attachment from the email, causing a ZIP archive to be created and an ISO image to be…

I guess Mastodon is not 'cutting edge' enough for the Twitter overlords. Now every time you try to spread the word about the platform, it's flagged as malware. I guess we'll just have to stick to good old Morse code.

Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) have recently gained a lot of attention in the crypto community for their potential to address problems in privacy and scaling. However, one major limitation of current ZKP systems is that generating a proof can be very slow and costly. This is because it requires a significant amount of computation, which can make it expensive to generate proofs for complex programs. As a result, the range of applications for which ZKPs can be used today is…

Did you know that last night, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced that it will allow 10-year Japanese government bond (JGB) yields to trade within a wider range of -0.50% to +0.50%, up from the previous range of -0.25% to +0.25%? This change in policy is seen as a potential shift in the BoJ's monetary policy stance and is expected to cause some market volatility. It may also affect the flow of capital from Japan, as Japanese investors have traditionally looked abroad to invest…

Cold exposure therapy may have the potential to inhibit the growth of cancerous cells in mice and humans, according to a recent study published in the journal Nature. The study found that activating brown fat tissue and reducing glucose consumption through cold exposure therapy may help to slow the growth of cancer cells. While more research is needed to fully understand the potential health benefits of cold exposure therapy, these findings offer promising news for those…

One project that is making waves in the Rust community is Kindelia, a decentralized computing platform that uses a fast and efficient functional runtime called the HVM. The HVM is developed in Rust and is reportedly able to outperform the C programming language by up to 10x in many cases. However, despite the impressive performance of the HVM, the Kindelia team has faced challenges in securing funding and finding a viable business model for their project. Despite the fact…
