My experience is that whilst it's not perfect, modern models can create images with text that is correct, relatively often. As a test I just tried ChatGPT with the prompt :- Hi ChatGPT can you give me a picture of a banner that says &q

FWIW I recently got a color Laser brother printer (MFC-L3740CDW) that's been working well. My needs aren't for super high resolution or anything but it does the basics well enough, and doesn't appear to have any subscription

Accurately determining risk relies on decent starting data, otherwise you run the risk of Garbage-in, Garbage-out. Whilst things like VEX and EPSS can help, they are based on the starting point that is CVE assignment and CVSS score. I don&#

For another opinion on this topic https://jericho.blog/2024/02/26/the-linux-cna-red-flags-sinc... Having a large number of new, unscored, CVEs in the Linux kernel is going to make things... interesting. From

I agree it can be overused, but I've been running into more examples recently. One that springs to mind is that I asked GPT-4 to retrieve a webpage from the kubernetes docs site (the CVE list) and put some information from it into a ma

I kind of doubt he'd do that. AFAIK most of Elon's wealth is in Tesla shares, and a lot of them are pledged against loans. If his Tesla shares go done seriously in value that could leave him open to margin calls. Over time, he may

A small point on that last bit. The bearssl authors are pretty conservative when it comes to development milestones, I'd guess that their 0.6 would be pretty solid :)

It's worth noting that whilst vulnerability scanners are very useful, they pretty easy to bypass, if someone creates an image and doesn't want them to flag things up. One very basic example is https://raesene.github.io&
