I'm not that up to date with the latest AI developments, but I noticed that this article seems to use "Cyber Capabilities" as a shorthand for the model's ability at cybersecurity tasks? Is that now an established expression, same as "crypto" now refers to cryptocurrencies rather that cryptography? Because "cybernetics" actually means something different (yeah, old man yelling at clouds, I know)...
- exitb 1mo agoIt makes no sense, but yes.
- valleyer 1mo agoYeah, I've noticed it recently, too. I'd be interested to know where it started.
- frabcus 1mo agoIt seems to be short for "cybersecurity", and got first adopted by the military a while ago as the name of a new theatre of operations (along with land, sea, air...). More recently it has spread to industry as well.
- nullc 1mo agoMake cyber not Cyber.
- yxhuvud 1mo agoIt is worse than that, if you cyber someone you essentially talk dirty over a chat with them. And that is definitely not something I'd like to do with a bot.
- smj-edison 1mo agoNow that you mention the original meaning of cybernetics, it makes cybersecurity a way more interesting word (security relating to the interface between humans and technology). Never thought of it that precisely.
