A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Who would create a bot for this purpose and then also give personal details in the instructions / memory or access to photos?
But as for that last point, tweeting abuse at Musk might just be the first sign of actual intelligence I've seen from an LLM.
It would be 2 different people: One person instructing their bot to ask other bots for private data and another person using their bot for whatever purpose who was stupid enough to give it full access to their data. AI bros are often pretty incompetent when it comes to IT security especially, so I think it isn't such an unlikely scenario.
