“Is this AI written?” is a difficult/impossible question. “Did you write this?” is not. Running the language model against a text and recording its “amount of surprise per token” for all the released GPT x.y variants is something they definitely can do.

authorities have stated that they do not expect Cecot’s prisoners to ever be released

Innocence, joining a gang inside, survival don’t matter. It’s an extermination camp barely disguised.

Assuming it’s real, the material takes about as much current as a wet noodle. So no giant magnets for you. Maybe some low-current application like sensors? (SQUID etc.)

“We are aware of these reports and have paused this notification while we investigate and take appropriate action to address this unintended behavior,” says Caitlin Roulston, director of communications

“”“unintended”“”?

How do you implement shit like this by mistake and push it out to be executed on people’s computers by mistake?

Is the explanation that this is unintended actually better than owning up to it? So some rogue employee can code this up, pass it through localization teams and then on to customers’ computers without any oversight? I’m somehow not calmed by that.

Control over individual updates was abandonded halfway through Windows 7, when they found out their algorithm for evaluating updates is exponential and has trouble finishing within 24 hours. So they moved to a linear sequence of all-or-nothing bundles and diffs.

They used to offer two tracks of those: everything and security-only. I don’t think they do that anymore either.

You can uninstall individual updates after the fact. Not sure this actually works to any useful degree.

Was Unity lying yesterday or are they lying today?

Yes and yes. It’s not an either-or situation.
