- Pragmata 2mo agoMy brother, they acquired root on a machine they should not have had access to. How confident are you that the machines they acquire root on in the future will never hold any model weights?
- khalic 2mo agoI’m not saying it’s impossible, I’m saying it’s not the case, _yet_
- hobom 2mo agoYou said that they "didn't take control of anything" and accused the OP to fall prey to buzz headlines. Maybe you should acknowledge that you may have been at least unnuanced?
- khalic 2mo agoI’ll concede that I could have been clearer. Maybe we have conflicting definitions of “taking control”
- famouswaffles 2mo agoYou are being stupidly pedantic and arguing a strawman. I never said they gained access to inference infrastucture. There is no definition of an account takeover out there that necessitates locking out the original users.
- khalic 2mo agoLanguage please, and no, I’m being appropriately technical and nuanced for the subject on HN. It’s a tech forum, I expect a little CS know how from the reader. Like knowing that gaining control to a few evaluation harness clusters is nowhere near a total takeover like you’re making it sound
- famouswaffles 2mo agoI never said they gained 'total control'. I said they took over one of their research clusters, and they did. If your definiton of a takeover is so 'technical and nuanced' then surely you can point to an appropriate source describing that as necessary aspect of the term. You are talking out of your ass by making up things i did not say, and inventing conditions for terms that don't exist. >It’s a tech forum, I expect a little CS know how from the reader. You should get that first it seems.
- khalic 2mo agoYou know you can just concede and not resort to ad-hominems out of spite right? Anyway, goodbye
