Imagine being CEO in your last year in a stellar career, only to taint it all forever by binding your soul to the orange man at the last moment.

Tragic.🫡

(Yes, he did many things wrong. No, I don‘t like todays Apple either. But…have you looked at the other guys?)

„If you hit unexpected limits or these changes just don’t work for you, you can cancel your Pro or Pro+ subscription“

Let me translate that:

Those data centers we talked about? Yeah…didn‘t happen.

Our enterprise customers are way more profitable for us than you plebs. Eat dirt or go away!

You did not like Clippy, you did not like Recall, you call us Slops…we hate you! Go away faster!

Schwester hat unternehmensweite Copilot Lizenz weil man damit so gut Berichte und Powerpoints machen kann. (Claude gefällt ihr besser, aber Unternehmen „ist halt Microsoft“.)

Hölle.🔥🔥🔥

The speed is enabled by skewing the economics. People can search for bugs using billions of investment at little cost.

Open Source has increased load due to this, but is not at risk. We do not guarantee any fitness for purpose.

Businesses, especially the ones not *always* running the latest version of software, are more exposed.

But we do not see an uptake of investment into project security from the commercial side.

AIs have been finding bugs and vulnerabilities in #curl for some time.

Is it work to fix those? Yes.

Has someone paid for this? Partially (wolfSSL and @nprofile1q...)

Are the AIs annoying? Yes, very.

Could humans find the same bugs? Yes, if they‘d somehow avoid being bored to death through it.

Was there something „heartbleed“ like? No.

Were there lots of C mistakes? No, logic bugs mostly.

Do AIs run out of steam? Yes. After a while a model stops finding things. Findings differ per model.
