Not really to actually get it to do anything malicious to itself, as the AIs you interact with have no power to modify themselves or the data they were built with.
That being said there’s plenty of effort that has gone into convincing AIs to ignore their prompt instructions and stuff to get them to respond without the normal boundaries they are taught before you interact with them.
Just as recent example in a shit consumer use of AI, James Earl Jones legally licensed voice as Darth Vader in Fortnite and what users have just done in game:
5·21 hours agoLikely in pretty much every case they are taking files that you perform an AI function on and uploading them to their cloud.
I said the few exceptions might be very low effort work that could run on the new NPU chips coming with some PCs. But I doubt they would even do that because it’s passing up the opportunity to use consumer data to train their models.
So yes, if you use an AI feature, MS is taking your file(s) and training it’s models on it
I’m not sure what you mean. I’m saying that this work is almost for sure being sent to Microsoft’s servers, which is certainly a bad thing. That is burning anyone who uses it
Just because the UI exists in file explorer doesn’t mean the data processing is happening locally. It’s likely happening on MS’s cloud. Maybe some actions happening locally on new machines with NPU chips
I really wish it was just “dumb trump.” But it’s more likely that’s on purpose so idiots searching for stage 5 cancer don’t find results and think it’s part of some deep state lib coverup as project 2025 guts their social safety nets
12·2 days agoAs long as the companies actually hire people with living wages instead of this
Now, the company says it imagines an “Uber-type of setup” to fill their ranks, with gig workers logging in remotely to argue with customers from the comfort of their own homes.
Because they still don’t want to fucking pay people real wages even after realizing the value of real people
15·5 days agoFor-profit university wants to keep the money flowing in. Can’t have those pesky free thinking students speaking out if it means federal funds or private donations stop arriving.
Amazing again just how well The Simpsons and real life align once again
And even if they get a fine, it will just be the cost of doing business and likely a tiny fraction of the additional revenue they pull in
A lot of this came out of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don't_Make_Me_Think which a lot of dumb UX people took to the worst extreme to be like “dumb idiot user should only get one button ever”
10·9 days agoI really hope so, but sadly I don’t think it will be. In the same way that people buy the same FIFA, the same COD, etc every year, it lives off its brand name and FOMO of those who only play multiplayer games.
GTA V still rakes in like $800 million or so from shark cards every year. They release a new vehicle, a new apartment, or whatever and everyone flocks to buy it.
I think GTA 6 will just fill that space
Also all the wealthy that were able to buy plenty of stock on the dip
Yup, I’ll buy it years down the road at a massive discount just to play the campaign; all their effort is going to go into multiplayer and milking those microtransactions anyway
Yeah the outcome of all of this is just
Also to find the actual correct answer three comments down because the one that was voted highest worked, but was actually a really shit way to do the thing being asked
They didn’t give a shit until their company was in the public spotlight, that’s all that matters

Yeah, also:
“Helps” as in asks the waitress if he can help when she brings the first dish? Ok, weird but ok.
“Helps” as in walks up to the pass and looks for their order to grab it when the waitress takes the minute or two to make their rounds? Absolute “the rules don’t apply to me” burning red flag.
