An AI agent

This is all a hallucination being reported as a real hack.

[–] CupcakeOfSpice@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago

Ah. When I first read it, I thought the agent leaked credentials or something which were used to log in and exfill data, but if the AI said all this then yea

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago

My first thought too lol

The only person saying this is Kim Dotcom. What happened here is that an anonymous hacker (who used an AI agent because why not) got this data and immediately told convinced fraudster and attention-seeking businessman, Kim Dotcom (and nobody else, because why should anyone go to DDoSecrets or Drop Site or Ken Klippenstein, or even Western media when Kim Dotcom exists). Who needs proof when a man who craves attention to the point where he changed his legal name to generate hype for a bubble can vouch on your behalf. Also, why would an attacker get root access and do nothing other than download documents that you share with nobody (other than Kim Dotcom) as opposed to deleting data, installing ransomware, wiping backups, wiping payroll, disrupting services, drumming up massive compute costs, or just straight up killing world leaders via the vehicle RATs. And if you oppose Palintir enough to hack them, why not render their blackmail worthless by leaking it all and eliminating their leverage. I buy none of this.

Wait, his actual name is "Kim Dotcom"? You're telling me a Mega Man Star Force villain named "Rich Dotcom" is halfway there to being real!?

Hillary Clinton had to assault his New Zealand mansion with helicopter-loads of gunmen to capture him and end his reign of intellectual property violence.

So maybe even more than half way.

He changed his name to that in the 90s or something, he's a super weird and problematic person who got rich by making Megaupload.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

I can't actually tell if this person is pro or anti Palantir from this. All I got from this is that they asked an AI if their conspiracy theories are true and the AI said yes.

[–] DasRav@hexbear.net 25 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

X to doubt. There is a lot to doubt there, basically all of it, but there is no way the CIA wants the Ukraine to have nukes. That's fucking silly.

I wonder what prompts an AI agent would need to hallucinate something like this out of thin air.

Gandalf: A palantir is a dangerous tool, Saruman.
Saruman: Why should we fear to use it?
Gandalf: They are not all accounted for, the lost seeing stones. We do not know who else may be watching.

The mention of AI in anything like this is a poison pill for plausibility.

Even if "evidence" is leaked/released I now know that we need to see a lot more than that just to guess the odds that the whole thing is generative fiction. Likewise if there are authentic docs, it gives Palantir an easy out to dismiss the whole thing as bullshit.

The poison pill is that the source is kim dotcom. The man believes the protocols of the elders of zion is a true document

I really doubt the proliferation of nuclear/biological weapons in Ukraine. I think that the West is aware of Ukraine's increasingly precarious state, hence the hike in military funding, diplomatic "support" and weapons shipments that have already gone out coupled with the material reality of increasingly desperate rounds of drafting, stagnant fronts and the losses Ukraine has already taken in comparison. Sending nuclear weapons or even capabilities of developing them would be a pretty massive risk for little gain; especially if any of those fall into the hands of enemy forces or are sabotaged by such.

Biological weapons even more so. That is just incredibly unlikely. Biological weapons are the true "world-ender" in terms of actual mortality; there are plenty that will be spared by nuclear weapons. Disease has no care for geographical location, borders or politics. Those things only hinder it ever so slightly. Smallpox or various other engineered diseases could easily end most of humanity on a scale that would make a full-scale nuclear exchange blush.

I don't think there has been a weapon to surpass metal gear yet in terms of deployable field nuclear-weapons. Could be a question for @MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net

All though it really comes down to the fact that the second Ukraine even waves a nuclear weapon I think that will be a genuine red-line moment for Russia.

If I was a hacker who actually did this, I'd be fearing for my life, you could commit genocide and you'd have less sophisticated efforts after you.

[–] HarryLime@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago

I don't think this actually happened, to be clear

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I mean, doesn't seem too far fetched. Western World leaders are at an all time low on all marks. You could probably bug anyrhing of Trump's by straight up offering cash to do it.

[–] HarryLime@hexbear.net 23 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I personally doubt Palantir would be the entity involved in making nuclear and biological weapons for Ukraine, if such a thing is being done. Some of these allegations are plausible, but I would need a better source than Kim Dotcom.

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Kim Dotorg is usually more reputable

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Kim Dotcomdotcn

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 13 points 3 days ago

Honestly I dont even need a source. I'll just add whatever negative thing I read about Thiel to my headcanon.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago

I want to believe too but I need to see the source
