Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you like working from home? Yes or no, gimme some reasons.English
4·6 days agoWorking at home since 2020, and while I agree with the advantages most people post here, I definitely miss talking with people over lunch, or even getting out for After Work beers now and then. (Obviously that depends a lot on if you like your coworkers or not)
This is apparently a super controversial opinion but I wouldn’t mind working somewhere that forces people to the office 2, maybe 3 days a week. Just not every day.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Translate is vulnerable to prompt injectionEnglish
1·7 days agoMaybe i misunderstand what you mean but yes, you kind of can. The problem in this case is that the user sends two requests in the same input, and the LLM isn’t able to deal with conflicting commands in the system prompt and the input.
The post you replied to kind of seems to imply that the LLM can leak info to other users, but that is not really a thing. As I understand when you call the LLM it’s given your input and a lot of context that can be a hidden system prompt, perhaps your chat history, and other data that might be relevant for the service. If everything is properly implemented any information you give it will only stay in your context. Assuming that someone doesn’t do anything stupid like sharing context data between users.
What you need to watch out for though, especially with free online AI services is that they may use anything you input to train and evolve the process. This is a separate process but if you give personal to an AI assistant it might end up in the training dataset and parts of it end up in the next version of the model. This shouldn’t be an issue if you have a paid subscription or an Enterprise contract that would likely state that no input data can be used for training.
I feel personally attacked.

33·10 days agoIt’s probably what has surprised me the most about all this, how much has happened on free hosted email accounts.
I guess it means that privacy from human eyes (i.e. not automated scanning) is pretty good. Or Google/Yahoo is in on a conspiracy but I can’t imagine regular operations staff being made aware of it.

Technology@lemmy.world•VS Code for Linux may be secretly hoarding trashed filesEnglish
3·11 days agoI can’t really tell if you’re joking or not but no, I’m saying that it’s a bug, and at no point anything is sent off your computer

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•To those who are new to this whole fediverse/threadiverse/this thing, how has your experience been?English
3·11 days agoThe first one was my an experimental instance and I will shut it down soon. Initially I planned to migrate the database to new hosting but I also regretted using a domain that was essentially a reference to reddit (.red). So I decided to start clean on another domain while it was only me who used it for a limited time.

Technology@lemmy.world•VS Code for Linux may be secretly hoarding trashed filesEnglish
612·11 days agoI like that the article excerpt clearly says that it’s simply about files not being removed when the trash bin is emptied, and it’s a problem specific to the Canonical snap system… Yet every single other comment in here rants about Microsoft spyware. Not many people read beyond the headline, lol.

Linux@programming.dev•Not Kidding! Bash Shell Manual is Part of Epstein Files 🫣English
20·11 days agoAt some point I saw images posted on what was supposedly Epsteins server setup, and given the disgusting shit they were up to it’s not even a little surprising he would keep it on hardware he fully controls. So of course there will be some technical documentation in there.
At the same time I’m kind of shocked how much of these emails happens on seemingly regular @gmail.com or @yahoo.com addresses.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•To those who are new to this whole fediverse/threadiverse/this thing, how has your experience been?English
12·12 days agoAs someone who has been exploring the Fediverse for about 2 weeks, it’s been an overall good experience. I’ve been trying to use it instead of Reddit as much as possible, but it’s also apparent that there’s a lot less content.
I hope that the verse will continue to grow and that it will solve the content problem.
Otherwise the clients feel like a breath of fresh air and less enshittified than Reddit…
edit: Also the first comment talking about experiences that are just too jarring. I haven’t encountered anything like that but maybe I am just a sweet summer child.




Honestly you pretty much don’t. Llama are insanely expensive to run as most of the model improvements will come from simply growing the model. It’s not realistic to run LLMs locally and compete with the hosted ones, it pretty much requires the economics of scale. Even if you invest in a 5090 you’re going to be behind the purpose made GPUs with 80GB VRAM.
Maybe it could work for some use cases but I rather just don’t use AI.
