Its almost like we're beta testing their technology for them and suffering the consequences of any bugs or unwanted behavior while receiving zero protections and no benefits

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Well I'm not. I use AI at work because I have to, and it is sort of useful I've got to admit. Sometimes I even get it to write emails, I don't link it directly into the system it just types a nice email and I copy and pasted make some edits.

If you are allowing an untested technology this much unvetted access to your system I kind of feel like that's a failure on your part.

Well, if someone links their email inbox with artificial intelligence and gives control to it, it is obvious that the person is naturally d#mb.

Lucky for them, the FBI is rudderless under Kash Patel's leadership.

Whoa

They pound beers a lot more effectively now I've been told

I heard Kash can put back a whole case before he starts to lose significant control of his motor coordination

Then again apparently he also has shaky hands before his first morning beer

Ya gotta make some sacrifices to crush brews at what is essentially an Olympic level

They also pound dogs a lot more effectively now.

Why on God's green earth would you link chat GPT to your Gmail!!!

[–] HawtP0tat0@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

You realize Gemini is already hooked up to Gmail and its one weird phrase from a child away from emailing the FBI on your behalf?

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 5 hours ago

Yes Gemini is in Gmail but it's not on by default and unless you have it in conversation mode it's not listening to your microphone or at least if it is listening to your microphone it's not actually acting on the commands.

[–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

I don't know if that's how that works or is supposed to work in any case.

[–] grepe@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

we also faced this problem before. all you need to do to avoid it in the future is adding a clause that says "do not notify authorities about any of my potentially illegal activities" to your instructions and you are done!

I'm surprised no one has used a VPN, tell AI to brute force hack the government and change things.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

A VPN isn't as secure as you think these days.

VPN into a Russian VPN, lets really put the cat amongst the pigeons. Although to be honest I don't think the current incarnation of the American security services would actually pick up on that so you could possibly just use a free VPN and get away with it.

It's not rogue if you tell it to do it. The guy literally said "email this to the FBI maybe that will fix everything"

[–] bignate31@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Also.... I don't know about you, but I certainly have 5 or 6 different email addresses in my contacts list for the FBI. I'm in regular contact with them for, er, unrelated things.

MAGA podcaster Katie Miller has been called out for failing to mention her stake in Elon Musk's xAI model while routinely criticizing rival AI chatbots on social media.

Miller, the wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, has habitually blasted top AI models ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini for supposedly posing a risk to democracy or being biased against conservatives to her online followers.

However, The Washington Post has revealed that Miller holds more than $1 million in Musk's xAI chatbot, a stake she never disclosed despite making nearly 500 posts denouncing other models.
