The magpie has left.
Oh that's just brilliant, someone has hacked the Danish CPR registry and walked out with 8.8 million datasets, including names, addresses, and national ID numbers. That's approximately... EVERYBODY living in Denmark right now. 😑
Assume a lot of very official-looking phishing attempts in the near future. 🙄

@irene @drwho @DeliaChristina It's the same across Germany, but it differs between school types. We got a very thorough history education in gymnasium (which is the pathway for university, and which your friends probably also went to). But the basic "Hauptschule" track which is four years shorter doesn't do a lot of history, for example.
@ligi @cbase @radicle @tangled.org awesome, thanks! 👍
@ligi @cbase @radicle @tangled.org Oooh where can I get the image on the left screen? Want 😍
@BigJackBrass No and yes. 😑
@tschaefer Yeah, true. 😑
It has been __0__ days since I had to fix a networking issue by disabling IPv6. In 2026. 🙄
@Unixbigot oh wait, I wonder what's gonna happen if I put the negative reamer in the portable hol---
@Unixbigot nice to see that ACME finally released a follow-up product to their Portable Holes 👍
@glyph @mttaggart I get your point, but I prefer to purify my transformation matrices with burning sage and the blood of a black rooster. To each their own 🤷😈
@benbrown Burning Man simulator? 🤔
@datarama oh, you're right - maybe it's GPT-6.1 or GPT-6.2? Need to find the original article...
@RaphaelWimmer Addendum: I also think that some of the "AI is dangerous" conversation that's coming from the AI companies themselves is actually intended to encourage regulation - it would be a big bonus for them if you can only use AI hosted in a "licensed" datacenter.
@AuntyRed @RaphaelWimmer no, not at all - I'm just saying that there is nothing about an LLM that has agency on its own.
@RaphaelWimmer I don't think there's anything inherently unsafe about an LLM, it's still just a prompt responder. I'm pretty certain all those recent incidents about "ZOMG our AI hacked someone" have been intentionally started by a human (which is obviously also not a good look).
@gumnos in this economy, it's worth a try 🤷
So... OpenAI won't release ChatGPT 6 for now because it's "too dangerous" or "unaligned". Given Sam Altman's history, I have a hard time believing that he'd voluntarily pass on any chance to increase profits, public safety be damned.
A much more plausible explanation IMHO is that it's just not noticeably better that GPT-5 in any way, diminishing returns, model collapse, etc., and that's just a really bad look if you want to IPO soon?
