"LLM-generated passwords"

@quincy
I am rooting for a peaceful scenario

[anotherdaniel@chaos.social]

@quincy In the US, they have managed to create a population that is so lost, no one I speak with can even imagine how to turn that around again.
And thanks to most of the rest of the world lapping up every tidbit of moronic idiocy coming out of that broken culture, we are following hot on their heels.

And all you can do is watch, and listen to your brain scream.

[quincy@chaos.social]

@anotherdaniel indeed

[ryanc@infosec.exchange]

@quincy if anything they might be useful for cracking passwords

[thamunsta@mastodon.nervesocket.com]

@quincy may as well just grab a random one from rockyou.txt

[quincy@chaos.social]

(using the neoliberal phrase "the education sector" made me cringe the instant I wrote it)

[vampirdaddy@chaos.social]

@quincy Passwords are negible anyway as ClaudeVot/ClawdBot will use and leak that regardless.

[energisch_@troet.cafe]

@quincy And the massive damage to our environment: climate, nature, society, politics, and even the possible wars that are created by A.I.
The price needs to be paid by all. The profits are earned by very few. In my eyes, such damaging technology must be controlled very strictly and must not be accessible be irresponsible people.

@WindOfChange @quincy is this that “utopia” I hear so much about?

[energisch_@troet.cafe]

@quincy A.I. may turn out as damaging as nukes and other long-term toxic substances like microplastics - their consequences will harm everyone down to the tinyest forms of life.

[quincy@chaos.social]

@energisch_ it's a true pandora's box.

[mikemccaffrey@drupal.community]

@quincy Funny how the random generation machines can't even get random generation right.

[rejzor@mastodon.social]

@quincy Why do we need LLM to generate some random shit? It already does that by default.

[quincy@chaos.social]

@rejzor I have no idea.

Or rather, I do.

There's a chatbox that claims to replace all specialized tools, so people use it ...

[fgbjr@indieweb.social]

@quincy Kind of shocked people need to have this one pointed out to them. It's like saying software runs on computers.

[tattie@eldritch.cafe]

@quincy this is like "here is a random number I generated, feel free to use it for all your random-number needs: 11"

[quincy@chaos.social]

@energisch_

and those who made this box think it's a great idea to continue building it and nuke ourselves with it.

and they have followers.

[16af93@wetdry.world]

@Tattie @quincy

there is an xkcd for that

[weirdmustard@cyberpunk.lol]

@quincy Wait what. Password managers have been generating safe passwords for decades, what are ppl doing, asking GPT instead

[lil5@social.linux.pizza]

@quincy

This is python’s math/rand vs crypto/rand all over again, except this time nobody reads the fucking documentation!
