This stuff is really starting to make me _angry_. Every one of these new "achievements" looks plausible and like Lucy with the football, people I trust keep telling me it actually works and surely this time it's real. And then like clockwork, 3-6 months later, it turns out that the efficacy of this new technique is somewhere between "break even" and "fraud".
They're turning our whole industry, my entire life's work, into a goddamn memecoin pump and dump scam and I just don't know what to do.
@glyph Draw pictures of Anthropic/OpenAI as Lucy, obviously

@glyph the job of every capitalist system is to take your good will and convert it into gray goo

@glyph Maybe helping to resist all those "tools" by hiding them helps?

@glyph The big problem is that they work often enough to be useful, but not often enough to be trusted.
So you can use them to find a pile of vulnerabilities. Some of them might be real and important, some might be fake or just not all that important.
For an attacker, that's great. You can just iterate through until you find one vulnerability that works and exploit it.
For a defender, much less simple. You have to triage them, fix them, ensure the fixes don't themselves introduce new vulnerabilities, etc.
And yeah, this is one of the big frustrations with the whole field. It "works". Often enough to be useful, for some tasks. But what tasks? How do you know when it didn't work?
