The issue is provenance. We need cameras and phones to digitally sign photos so we can easily verify an unadulterated image.

You also want to be able chain signing so that for example a news reporter could take a photo, then the news outlet could attest its authenticity by adding their signature on top.

Same principle could be applied to video and text.

I'd it's processed in 2 seconds, why not just process it immediately in memory?

So these skills are effectively JIT context injections. Is that about right?

It's all jit context

I've done live demos of AI. Even with the same queries, I got a different answers than my 4 previous practice attempts. My demos keep me on my toes and I try to limit the scope much more now.

(I didn't have control over temperature settings.)

It looks like true 0-temperature (i.e. determinism) will happen. Here's some good context: https://thinkingmachines.ai/blog/defeating-nondeterminism-in...

The title should be: "ChatGPT adds full MCP support"

Calling it "Developer Mode" is likely just to prevent non-technical users from doing dangerous things, given MCP's lack of security and the ease of prompt injection attacks.

I think you've nailed it there. OpenAI are at a point where the risk of continuing to hedge on mcp outweighs the risk of mcp calls doing damage.

Restaurants (at least in the US) have very strict standards about how long you can keep something at room temperature before you have to throw it away. Those standards are extremely conservative, and lead to a lot of food waste, but if I were on the staff I'd at least want to keep an eye on how long something has been sitting out. Those standards have just been beaten into me.

You also see that on a lot of fictional TV shows with dining scenes. Often nobody actually puts anything in their mouths. It was made hours ago while you were off shooting something else, and still more time while they got costumes, lights, makeup, etc. right (and for several takes). By the time film is rolling it has gotten quite gross.

(Assuming it was even food in the first place. Fake food often looks better and doesn't go off.)

Once you notice characters aren't eating, you'll never not see it again.

Related, where they're drinking coffee from a disposable cup, you can almost always tell it's empty by how they handle it.

He had a pretty reliable exploit on the most used browser, pretty sure it he could have gotten more tax free on the black market.

Now, with EDR widely deployed it's likely that the exploit usage ends up being caught sooner than later, but pretty sure some dictatorship intelligence agency would have found all those journalists deep compromise worthwhile...
