‘Why designers make better entrepreneurs than they think’ by Vivianne Castillo for Fast Company fastcompany.com/91528880/why-d… .@uxpaboston #UXPABos #UXPABoston #UXPABostonConference #RePositioningUX

This is big... Anthropic just announced a model so powerful they won't release it to the public out of fear over the damage it will cause 😨 Claude Mythos Preview found thousands of zero-day exploits in every major operating system and web browser... The numbers are hard to believe: > $50 to find a 27-year-old bug in OpenBSD, one of the most security-hardened operating systems ever built > Under $1,000 to find AND build a fully working remote code execution exploit on FreeBSD that grants unauthenticated root access from anywhere on the internet > Under $2,000 to chain together multiple Linux kernel vulnerabilities into a complete privilege escalation exploit For context: these are the kinds of findings that previously required elite security researchers working for weeks. Anthropic engineers with no formal security training asked Mythos to find exploits overnight. They woke up to working code the next morning. The results were so impressive Anthropic assembled Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, NVIDIA, and seven other organizations into Project Glasswing: A $100M defensive coalition. They're not releasing this model publicly. Instead, they're racing to patch the world's infrastructure before models like this proliferate.

More thoughtful & responsible implementation of AI makes Ecosia my preferred new default browser / tool for searching & navigating the web.

As a not-for-profit org, Ecosia ‘can afford to do things differently. [ Ecosia’s ] AI Search uses smaller, more efficient models, and [ they ] avoid energy-heavy features like video generation altogether.’
