Well Meta's 65 billion parameter language model just got leaked to the public internet, that was fast. Get ready for loads of personalized spam and phishing attempts. Open sourcing these models was a terrible idea

Socrates was a classic poster. He just walked up to people and asked them what they believed in, then he’d say it was stupid and yell at them. He argued with everybody until he was legally compelled to kill himself. Not one of us has that commitment

lmao the dude who leaked the LLaMA weights went to all the trouble to verify the sha256 checksums matched with someone else’s (to make sure it wasn’t fingerprinted) and then left the fucking unique pre signed download url in the torrent…

Correction : the company Cellebrite brute-forced iOS 12 for the US Secret Service using a new unknown technique for rapid passcode attempting. SLED did not have this updated software, but the USSS did it for SLED. There was no jailbreak.
