  • In Cringe Video, OpenAI CTO Says She Doesn’t Know Where Sora’s Training Data Came From

    Jump

  • Because people are afraid of things they don't understand. AI is a very new and very powerful technology, so people are going to see what they want to see from it. Of course, it doesn't help that a lot of people see "a shit load of cash" from it, so companies want to shove it into anything and everything.

    AI models are rapidly becoming more advanced, and some of the new models are showing sparks of metacognition. Calling that "plagiarism" is being willfully ignorant of its capabilities, and it's just not productive to the conversation.

  • Reddit has reportedly signed over its content to train AI models

  • The only thing stopping them is the fact that anyone who wants the data can just utilize the federation protocol to take any data they want, and there's not a lot anyone can do about it. You can't sell something that's trivial to get for free.

    If the question you're really asking is "what's stopping content on Lemmy/Mastodon/etc from being used to train an LLM?" the answer is, nothing.

  • What are the most paranoid network/OS security measures you've implemented in your homelab?

    Jump

  • Definitely a consideration. In my case, the vast majority of my services are running in docker on a single host box, including the reverse proxy itself (Traefik). That unencrypted traffic never goes out over a wire, so for now I'm not concerned.

  • What are the most paranoid network/OS security measures you've implemented in your homelab?

  • I'm not super paranoid about security, but I do try to have a few good practices to make sure that it takes more than a bot scanning for /admin.php to find a way in.

    • Anything with SSH access uses key-based auth with password auth disabled. First thing I do when spinning up a new machine
    • Almost nothing is exposed directly to the Internet. I have wireguard set up on all my devices for remote access and also for extra security on public networks
    • Anyone who comes to visit gets put on the "guest" network, which is a separate subnet that can't see or talk to anything on the main network
    • For any service that supports creating multiple logins, I make sure I have a separate admin user with elevated permissions, and then create a non-privileged user that I sign in on other devices with
    • Every web-based service is only accessible with a FQDN which auto-redirects to HTTPS and has an actual certificate signed by a trusted CA. This is probably the most "paranoid" thing I do, because of the aforementioned not being accessible on the Internet, but it makes me happy to see the little lock symbol on my browser without having to fiddle around with trusting a self-signed cert.

  • What app is so useful, you can’t believe it’s free?

    Jump

  • Taking the opportunity to get on my soapbox and remind everyone that free software still requires someone's time and effort to maintain. If you've been using a free app for a while and you and you enjoy it (and you have the means to do so), consider sending a donation to the developers/maintainers! It's a good way to help ensure that the great, free app you enjoy stays great and free.
