Sure, but the comment I am responding to is arguing that there is a way around pressures towards a traceable token, so you can prosecute the person sharing their credentials. This is not the case.

If the smart cards required some human input to perform a signature maybe this could work. Otherwise there is nothing stopping someone from selling use of their card via some proxy software

This doesn’t stop the scheme the parent proposes, where adults install some proxy on their device and challenges are responded to on the parent device. Then the private key never leaves the parent device and all the child device has is the

Does this private data come from places like Reddit, Twitter, etc., where it’s contributed by users? I think it is unethical for these companies to accept payment for user-contributed data.

Do you wish you had time to learn about them? Or do you wish you just knew them? Having them uploaded to your brain might make you know about them, but is much different from having time to learn them. This is important if for you, like for

Definitely, I’m not saying that AI can entirely replace humans. But AI is definitely replacing parts of many jobs. If AI companies raise their rates to be profitable, and it turns out that paying for profitable AI is not worth it vs paying

People use AI because it is cheaper than paying humans to think. Soon you won’t really be able to find human thinkers.

Realistically though, if there are some humans left, they are going to want to live in a society. Humans are fundamentally social and I think the people in charge would eventually realize this. But then again rich people are not normal, so

That assumes that the agent knows which one is better. And to bake in which one is better via post-training would require a study like this to establish where each one works well

Hm, I didn’t even consider that it could be an “agent” in the AI sense. I assumed this meant a service that runs on the device and interposes on requests to access privileged resources and enforces permissions checks on them. That is, the c
