This is certainly the most immediate risk from AI: Superhackers. This article talks about humans using AI to hack at unimaginable scales, but there’s also a real danger of RSI-driven AI agents becoming autonomous superhackers. As I keep saying, we must never forget that AI agents are cyberspace-native. They may still be dumb and limited, but they can see and do things in cyberspace that we can’t. A shark too is dumb and limited in our world, but not in its native space. joshuasaxe181906.substack.co…

I don’t quite understand why Merz and Macron who so applauded the Iran war are now talking of an energy emergency. Was it not part of the plan?

The world moved heaven & earth to rescue the Oceangate sub & the team in the Tham Luang cave But nobody is moving a muscle to save 100 souls trapped beneath a collapsed building in Gaza. Gazans are literally digging through the rubble with their bare hands. The bare minimum is to press Israel to allow excavators, trucks & fuel. There’s no reason why Israel is still banning those life-saving equipment from entering Gaza!

They are fabricating a myth of “we didn’t know what was being done in our names!” We’re watching these monsters try to rewrite the history of their proud tiktoked genocide in real time.

On book publishers' use of AI and the resultant dilution of author's copyright protections.
I will die on the hill of 'AI is theft' & I urge all book publishers to stop using AI for editing or proof-reading. It effectively gives AI firms your manuscript for free. Knowledge you expect readers to pay for. It also effectively removes copyright control from authors +

Khursheed sahib is equally remarkable for his engagement with Arabic and Urdu poetry. One of his recent scholarly works is devoted to the Arabic poetry of Altaf Hussain Hali, which had previously received little attention The past has more to say thenews.pk/tns/detail/143562…
