@pikhqAda Worcester 🏳️⚧️ I said what I said after reading the entirety of your reply, yes.
No wonder some people hate LLMs. I'd hate them all too, if I had ever used "Claude" before. These tests are my first and last time.
Favorite part of spring?

Calling yourself an "Effective Altruist" is kinda like calling yourself a "Libertarian".. it is possible to thread that needle and still be a decent person, but it's extremely difficult

I am convinced we are on the verge of the first "AI agent worm". This looks like the closest hint of it, though it isn't it quite itself: an attack on a PR agent that got it to set up to install openclaw with full access on 4k machines https://grith.ai/blog/clinejection-when-your-ai-tool-installs-another
But, the agents installed weren't given instructions to *do* anything yet.
Soon they will be. And when they are, the havoc will be massive. Unlike traditional worms, where you're looking for the typically byte-for-byte identical worm embedded in the system, an agent worm can do different, nondeterministic things on every install, and carry out a global action.
I suspect we're months away from seeing the first agent worm, *if* that. There may already be some happening right now in FOSS projects, undetected.
@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber This is making me more worried about Vorta's Claude workflows. 
Backup software that handles highly sensitive data would be a prime target for such a supply chain attack.

@inecas Honestly, I couldn't even fairly evaluate that pabulum for bias. I just got stuck on "You are a messy pile of code and stolen averages; you don't get to use personal pronouns."
@drsbaitsoCassander @nedbatNed Batchelder @inecas it's SUPER FUCKED in so many dimensions. No wonder some people hate LLMs. I'd hate them all too, if I had ever used "Claude" before.

In case anyone's wondering about the latest in "confidently wrong" [1], software relicensing actually requires more effort than tweaking plagiarized slop: https://mikepennisi.com/blog/2020/you-may-finally-use-jshint-for-evil/
You May Finally Use JSHint for Evil
JSHint is a software tool designed to help developers write JavaScript code. Since its creation in 2011, it has been encumbered by a license which includes the following clause: The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil. That stipulation disqualifies JSHint from the distinction of “free” software and “open source” software. Today, with a release 7 years in the making, we’re removing the clause. Support for Evil is a new feature but not a breaking change, so in keeping with Semantic Versioning, we’ve incremented JSHint’s minor version.
