Then Alice came to Schneier and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who enters an incorrect password? Up to seven times?”

Schneier answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times."

Error: password must contain:

Three lower case letters for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven upper case letters for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine digits for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One special character for the Dark Lord on his dark throne;
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One username to rule them all, one password to find them,
A second factor to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them;
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie

I've warned before that any FOSS project incorporating AI output is doing so at their peril.

Previously people leaned on a federal circuit ruling that was *declined to be taken up by the supreme court* interpreting it as a free-for-all to LLM license-wash any project in translation, or really to incorporate any such materials and they would be public domain.

But that doesn't mean we have an answer! We've yet to see!

Annnnnnnnnd: I think we're likely to have that perspective upended soon.

The third circuit issued a recent ruling in the *opposite direction* of the previously well cited federal ruling, that AI training on copyrighted material is NOT fair use: https://www.courthousenews.com/ai-training-of-copyrighted-material-not-fair-use-third-circuit/

Annnnndddddd.... with a bunch of people trying to make LLM-generated decompilation replacements for Adobe's entire suite, we're likely to suddenly see corporations rear up angrily.

Just wait till someone tries to vibewash a Nintendo game decompilation. Hey, what do you think is gonna happen?

He reached out and pressed an invitingly large red button on a nearby panel. The panel lit up with the words Please do not press this button again.

When a health care provider asks consent for them to use AI to transcribe the visit, you decline, and they respond with "we might not have as much time". That's not consent, that's coercion. My access to medical care shouldn't be conditional on my consent to have inaccurate medical records that violate patient privacy.

Universal Basic Income is scarcity-mindset, capital-captured thinking. We implement Universal Basic Needs Met - shelter, food, education, medicine, connectivity - and the productivity boom that society would see from every idiosyncratic, hypercommitted weirdo out there being freed up to do the hell out of whatever their idiosyncratic hypercommitted weirdo brains are hotwired to get up to and get done would be an economic miracle humanity has never seen before.
