    Last week, some LLM bot commented under one of our issues and it became apparent pretty quickly, that it is a bot. So, I went to report it (incredibly the report menu did say they want reports for bots).

    I filled out the reporting form probably five times in total, trying at different times of the day. Every time, I got an error 500 (Internal Server Error) as response.
    Later, I checked my mails, and saw that actually two of my reports did go through, meaning I created two tickets on their side.

    What those mails also said: They’re very sorry, if it takes longer, since they’re currently experiencing a higher number of reports.

    Gee, I wonder why.

    Jesus fucking christ, did Github expose its own fucking Github credentials?

    Via having LLMs write and push its own updates, live, to production, where they were immediately scruntinized by… other LLMs doing ‘penstesting’?

    We’re gonna run outta honking noses and squirting flowers, the clown show is becoming too immense.

    Either that or we’re going to need to quarantine Github, actually make the fucking Blackwall before these things gain not sentience, but roughly the judgement skills of a toddler, armed with nuclear weapons.

      Every technology invented is a dual edge sword. Other edge propulses deluge of misinformation, llm hallucinations, brain washing of the masses, and exploit exploit for profit. The better side advances progress in science, well being, availbility of useful knowledge. Like the nuclerbomb, LLM “ai” is currenty in its infancy and is used as a weapon, there is a literal race to who makes the “biggest best” fkn “AI” to dominate the world. Eventually, the over optimistic buble bursts and reality of the flaws and risks will kick in. (Hopefully…)

      I posted this 9 months ago, and we are now at somewhere “brain washing of the masses, and exploit exploit for profit”.

        nuclerbomb lol. But yeah it’s honestly so dumb, requires minimal intelligence to understand that if you start building everything with AI, malicious actors can use AI to attack it effectively too.

          Satya Nadella called AI a bicycle for your mind.

          Close.

          It’s training wheels, not the bicycle.

          The training wheels also come from a factory that drains local aquifers, creates so much noise its basically a sonic weapon of mass destruction, and also generates its own significant heat island effect.

          And the training wheels have a very expensive subscription fee and will detonate if you stop paying it.

    Microslop does it again! But it will take much more than this for people to leave GitHub. Someone will have to start making private repositories public to show that GitHub can’t be trusted for companies to leave. And someone will have to insert malware into GitHub releases from inside the system to make opensource people leave.

      And even that wouldn’t be enough for some of them, given SourceForge’s continued existence.

    Microslop slowly losing github to attacks likely enabled by AI makes me believe that a god exists
