You can't fix an LLM by red teaming. It does exactly what it was designed to do. Autoassociative predictive word generation.So what do you prove when you do prompt injection? Not a damn thing.Always ask this. How does someone FIX what comes out of a pen test? If there is no fix, there is no change in security posture.#MLsec https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/08/08/ai-red-team-defcon/?wpisrc=nl_technology202

Good writeup on the mysterious disappearance of Xioafeng Wang. As a member of the Luddy school Dean's Advisory Council since the school's founding, I am surprised and appalled by the stonewalling from Indiana University. https://arstechnica.com/security/2025/03/computer-scientist-goes-silent-after-fbi-raid-and-purging-from-university-website/

"Many people are becoming reliant on AI to navigate some of the most basic aspects of daily life. A colleague suggested that we might even call the most extreme users “LLeMmings”—yes, because they are always LLM-ing, but also because their near-constant AI use conjures images of cybernetic lemmings unable to act without guidance. For this set of compulsive users, AI has become a primary interface through which they interact with the world."

@futurebird In my view, you are being too hard on #LLMs. I agree that they should not be used for many things without knowing the risks. But I disagree that we should utterly abandon the technology. Know the risks. Be a grownup. Use the tool. Manage the risks. As with ANY new technology, most people will misuse, misunderstand, and be bamboozled by new things they don't understand.
