I went to grab Bobby Tables and found this new variation

Why hope they sanitize their inputs?

Why are they trusting an AI that cant even do math to give notes to tests?

[-] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 12 points 2 months ago

Because it’s the most efficient. With students handing in AI theses, it’s only sensible to have teachers use AI to grade them. No we only need to have teachers use AI to create exam questions and education becomes a fully automated process. Then everyone can go home early.

The problem with LLM AIs Ous that you can’t sanitize the inputs safely. There is no difference between the program (initial prompt from the developer) and the data (your form input)

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

You can make it more resistant to overwriting instructions at least

[-] CandleTiger@programming.dev 6 points 2 months ago

You can try, but you can’t make it correct. My ideal is to write code once that is bug-free. That’s very difficult, but not fundamentally impossible. Especially in small well-scrutinized areas that are critical for security it is possible with enough care and effort to write code with no security bugs. With LLM AI tools that’s not even theoretically possible, let alone practical. You will just need to be forever updating your prompt to mitigate the free latest most fashionable prompt injections.

I asked an AI to calculate a side of a triangle today. The hypotenuse was 24 and both opposite sides were equal, with two small angles of 10° and a wide one of 160°. The answer should have been something a little over 12... And it very confidently said 25. That makes zero sense. Fucking AI really is stupid isn't it.

I'm confused by this comment. "The original is even better" reads like you are informing TO about the original. But you'd expect them to be aware of it, what with them referencing the joke nickname and saying "a new variation".

It's mostly confusing because there are clearer ways of posting the original comic for the uninformed than referencing the only person certain to have seen it.

I’m confused by your post.

  1. theirs is a reaction to someone posting a cartoon as a comment.

  2. they give a link to the original. (And before you say that that post had to have been edited to add the link, it would be marked as such, like this one, and it doesn’t show that the post is edited)

  3. anyone can see those comments. It’s not limited to just the poster, unless you’re not on Lemmy, but instead are viewing this thread from someplace else in the fediverse, like Mastodon.

Oh Little Bobby Tables!

You can also set your profile picture to 'missing/broken image' icon.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 months ago

It doesn't make it to our devs. I just null the field and cry a little inside at how terrible our platform can be

[-] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 27 points 2 months ago

What the fuck is that stock image? They really said "contemplating suicide but make it corporate".

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 months ago

I'd assume the noose is edited in

[-] Famko@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

It's actually not, I've looked through all of the stock images of this guy and in some he was holding the noose in his hands.

I have saved it outside of Lemmy!

And that picture's... Memable!

[-] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 months ago

You're probably right.

[-] vfsh 27 points 2 months ago

I did this to myself last week on a new project. Spent an hour trying to track down at what point in my code the data from the database got converted to [Object object]. Finally decided to check the db itself and realized that the [Object object] was coming from inside the house the whole time and the error in my code was when the entry was being written smh

Sanity checks

Always, always check if your assumptions are true

  • am i even running the function?
  • is this value what i think it is?
  • what is responsible for loading this data, and does it work as expected?
  • am i pointed at the right database?
  • is my configuration set and loaded in correctly?

print("hello") print("hello1") .... print("wtf!")

[-] LixWindoz@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

Here’s a list of reasons this is not advisable:

[object Object]

[-] mr_satan@lemm.ee 15 points 2 months ago

Me, the dev: "Nobody reported this as a problem… Ok, don't care, moving on." Also, if I can't reproduce it, I can't fix it, no point in wasting time more than that.
