Bonus points if the attackers use ai to script their attacks, too. We can fully automate the SaaS cycle!
That is the real dead Internet theory: everything from production to malicious actors to end users are all ai scripts wasting electricity and hardware resources for the benefit of no human.
Seems like a fitting end to the internet, imo. Or the recipe for the Singularity.
Not only internet. Soon everybody will use AI for everything. Lawyers will use AI in court on both sides. AI will fight against AI.
they’ll find a use case any day now for realsies.
It was a time of desolation, chaos, and uncertainty. Brother pitted against brother. Babies having babies.
Then one day, from the right side of the screen, came a man. A man with a plastic rectangle.
I am not a bot trust me.
That would only happen if we give power to our ai assistants to buy things on our behalf, and manage our budgets. They will decide among themselves who needs what and the money will flow to billionaires pockets without any human intervention. If humans go far enough, not even rich people would be rich, as trust funds, stock portfolios would operate under ai. If the ai achieves singularity with that level of control, we are all basically in spectator mode.
Someone really should’ve replied with
My attack was built with Curson
AI is yet another technology that enables morons to think they can cut out the middleman of programming staff, only to very quickly realise that we’re more than just monkeys with typewriters.
Yeah! I have two typewriters!

To be fair… If this guy would have hired a dev team, the same thing could happen.
But then they’d have a dev team who wrote the code and therefore knows how it works.
In this case, the hackers might understand the code better than the “author” because they’ve been working in it longer.
True, any software can be vulnerable to attack.
but the difference is a technical team of software developers can mitigate an attack and patch it. This guy has no tech support than the AI that sold him the faulty code that likely assumed he did the proper hardening of his environment (which he did not).
Openly admitting you programmed anything with AI only is admitting you haven’t done the basic steps to protecting yourself or your customers.
Well I think I am a monkey with a typewriter…
Ha, you fools still pay for doors and locks? My house is now 100% done with fake locks and doors, they are so much lighter and easier to install.
Wait! why am I always getting robbed lately, it can not be my fake locks and doors! It has to be weirdos online following what I do.
To be fair, it’s both.
Reminds me of the days before ai assistants where people copy pasted code from forums and then you’d get quesitions like “I found this code and I know what every line does except this ‘for( int i = 0; i < 10; i ++)’ part. Is this someone using an unsupported expression?”
i <= 9, you heathen. Next thing you’ll do isi < INT_MAX + 1and then the shit’s steaming.I’m cooked, see thread.
If it was correct it wouldn’t have been copied into the forums lmao
I mean
i < 10isn’t wrong as such, it’s just good practice to always use<=because in theINT_MAXcase you have to and everything should be regular because principle of least astonishment: That10might become a, that then might become, each of those changes look valid in isolation but if there’s only a singlei < FOOin your codebase you introduced a bug by spooky action at a distance. (overflow on int is undefined behaviour in C, in case anyone is wondering what the bug is).…never believe anyone who says “C is a simple language”. Their code is shoddy and full of bugs and they should be forced to write Rust for their own good.
But your case is wrong anyways because
i <= INT_MAXwill always be true, by definition. By your argument<is actually better because it is consistent from< 0to iterate 0 times to< INT_MAXto iterate the maximum number of times.INT_MAX + 1is the problem, not<which is the standard to write for loops and the standard for a reason.You’re right, that’s what I get for not having written a line of C in what 15 years. Bonus challenge: write
for i in i32::MIN..=i32::MAXin C, that is, iterate over the whole range, start and end inclusive.(I guess the
..=might be where my confusion came from because Rust’s..is end-exclusive and thus like<, but also not what you want becausei32::MAX + 1panics).for (int i = INT_MIN; ; i++) { ... if (i == INT_MAX) break;}Would you be bold enough to write
if (i++ == INT_MAX) break? The result of the increment is never used, but an increment is being done, at least syntactically, and it overflows, at least theoretically, so maybe (I’m not 100% sure) the compiler could be allowed to break out into song because undefined behaviour allows anything to happen.
The fact that “AI” hallucinates so extensively and gratuitously just means that the only way it can benefit software development is as a gaggle of coked-up juniors making a senior incapable of working on their own stuff because they’re constantly in janitorial mode.
So no change to how it was before then
Different shit, same smell
Plenty of good programmers use AI extensively while working. Me included.
Mostly as an advance autocomplete, template builder or documentation parser.
You obviously need to be good at it so you can see at a glance if the written code is good or if it’s bullshit. But if you are good it can really speed things up without any risk as you will only copy cody that you know is good and discard the bullshit.
Obviously you cannot develop without programming knowledge, but with programming knowledge is just another tool.
Depending on what it is you’re trying to make, it can actually be helpful as one of many components to help get your feet wet. The same way modding games can be a path to learning a lot by fiddling with something that’s complete, getting suggestions from an LLM that’s been trained on a bunch of relevant tutorials can give you enough context to get started. It will definitely hallucinate, and figuring out when it’s full of shit is part of the exercise.
It’s like mid-way between rote following tutorials, modding, and asking for help in support channels. It isn’t as rigid as the available tutorials, and though it’s prone to hallucination and not as knowledgeable as support channel regulars, it’s also a lot more patient in many cases and doesn’t have its own life that it needs to go live.
Decent learning tool if you’re ready to check what it’s doing step by step, look for inefficiencies and mistakes, and not blindly believe everything it says. Just copying and pasting while learning nothing and assuming it’ll work, though? That’s not going to go well at all.
It’ll just keep better at it over time though. The current ai is way better than 5 years ago and in 5 years it’ll be way better than now.
That’s certainly one theory, but as we are largely out of training data there’s not much new material to feed in for refinement. Using AI output to train future AI is just going to amplify the existing problems.
This is certainly the pattern that is actively emerging.
I mean, the proof is sitting there wearing your clothes. General intelligence exists all around us. If it can exist naturally, we can eventually do it through technology. Maybe there needs to be more breakthroughs before it happens.
“more breakthroughs” spoken like we get these once everyday like milk delivery.
That’s your interpretation.
that’s reality. Unless you’re too deluded to think it’s magic.
No i meant to say you’re interpretation of what I said.
Just generate the training material, duh.
Past performance does not guarantee future results
To get better it would need better training data. However there are always more junior devs creating bad training data, than senior devs who create slightly better training data.
And now LLMs being trained on data generated by LLMs. No possible way that could go wrong.
Yes, yes there are weird people out there. That’s the whole point of having humans able to understand the code be able to correct it.
Chatgpt make this code secure against weird people trying to crash and exploit it ot

This feels like the modern version of those people who gave out the numbers on their credit cards back in the 2000s and would freak out when their bank accounts got drained.
I hope this is satire 😭
“Come try my software! I’m an idiot, so I didn’t write it and have no idea how it works, but you can pay for it.”

“🎵How could this happen to meeeeee🎵”
I took a web dev boot camp. If I were to use AI I would use it as a tool and not the motherfucking builder! AI gets even basic math equations wrong!
Can’t expect predictive text to be able to do math. You can get it to use a programming language to do it tho. If you ask it in a programmatic way it’ll generate and run it’s own code. Only way I got it to count the amount of r’s in strawrbrerry.
I love strawrbrerry mllilkshakes.
At the liberry!
Way better than wrasprbrerry
But I thought vibe coding was good actually 😂
Vibe coding is a hilarious term for this too. As if it’s not just letting AI write your code.
Im gone print this and hang it into office
It appears you may have accidentally a word
But what site is he talking about?
Holy crap, it’s real!
