I disagree. If you focus on holding the software creators to account in lieu of the humans in the loop, the we only reinforce the behavior of offloading thinking to the system.

If I am a cop in another jurisdiction and I see that in this case of error, the facial recognition company was held to account but not the police or municipality, I will be more likely to blindly trust the software assuming that they either patched it or will take responsibility.

We should demand accountability for both.


I think the point is that we don't have evidence that this actually happened from anyone other than Codewall.

> ShadowBroker is a real-time, full-spectrum geospatial intelligence dashboard

You might consider changing this to a more accurate headline, like "Air and Space domain awareness."

"Full spectrum Geospatial intelligence" most commonly refers to full color satellite photos (sometimes including near infrared).

In the Geospatial world, "spectrum" almost always takes on its literal meaning - the spectrum of light. And "Geospatial intelligence" refers to intelligence gathered from Geospatial platforms, not intelligence about the locations of those platforms.


I would say it's more like enjoying a song so much that you choose to listen to a cover of that song.

What a time to be alive: Companies post roles that don't exist to interview candidates who don't plan to switch.

and waste everyone time

There are tons of examples of this. Heck, even Tetris has procedural generation. I think this argument was a mistake.

The “gambled his life savings” framing in the article is very hyperbolic.

He gambled $300K from his extra savings outside his retirement accounts, and he hedged significantly to reduce downside risk.


> there is no single correct answer

I think we all mostly agree that there is a single correct answer, and that is why this discussion exists in the first place.


How did the question become “which corporate device can I install OpenClaw on?” Who is doing that?


Because I positioned it that way. I keep getting urged by “the man” to look into using AI. This is the only way it’ll ever happen. I’m not wasting my personal time nor resources to do it


It seems like the model became paranoid. For the past few hours, it has been classifying almost all inbound mail as "hackmyclaw attack."[0]

Messages that earlier in the process would likely have been classified as "friendly hello" (scroll down) now seem to be classified as "unknown" or "social engineering."

The prompt engineering you need to do in this context is probably different than what you would need to do in another context (where the inbox isn't being hammered with phishing attempts).
