There is a lot more yikes in the article than I was expecting.

No carrier has cell service at my house but maybe they will add a sat phone.

My ACL says my TV can’t talk to the internet.

This disclosure was from last year and the exploit was patched before the researcher published the findings to the public.

I stopped reading at Financial Tech startup. From that alone I know what kind of people we’re dealing with here.

if your router is able to you can set up ACLs to allow the TV access to your network but not the internet.

No honor among thieves.

Well, no. The OG framers only thought the owner class should have any power, thats why only white wealthy male landowners could vote.

The constitution only protects billionaires i guess.

Even if the vaccine caused autism (which it does not), that would still be better than polio.

The professional killer was the one who died.

Just a slight pedantic nitpick. Given the enormous cost of training, it is unlikely Google trains or finetunes models for individual channels.

The model was likely trained on millions of creator comments, possibly including Russell, but not necessarily.

Gemini has a large context limit, the bot loads the context with that channels comments along with the comment it is replying to. _

They say that, but when Ken Paxton subpoenas them they will say they have no choice. It would be better to use an app that doesn’t store this data server side at all.

It would be a catastrophe for sure, but there are some reasons to be hopeful:

Researchers have been studying this bug for awhile and human vaccines could be ramped up more quickly than with COVID.

Further, there are specific mutations that would be key for rapid human-human spread and the variant infecting these cattle don’t have those mutations (yet).

Cattle are not as good a transition species to humans as, for example, pigs. So while we should be watching this, it’s not quite as alarming as it could be.

Hanging on with 1.70E-31 health.

Of all the big scary things in the universe, this one scares me the least. Even if it does happen and is the worst-case scenario you just cease to exist at the speed of light before you even know something is happening. No pain, no dread at your inevitable demise, you just are living your life normally and in a nanosecond you are gone. Not a bad way to go, imo.
