I mean, most llm makers work pretty hard to conceal the system prompt, and I have no idea why XAi would give Grok access to a database of historical prompts. LLMs don’t have memories by default, and their inability to learn from past experiences is kind of a big stumbling point for a lot of folks. You can ask, but I doubt you’re likely to get anything other than a confabulation.
I think I like the draft headline better, despite it’s clunkiness.
People commenting after only reading the headline and not the article is exactly the behavior I find irritating and distasteful about headline-related complaints.
I’m usually against complaints about poor headlines, but this one is completely factually incorrect? The FBI didn’t interact with Grok here literally at all? They issued a search warrant to X to get their logs?
Wait, hold up, Dove the soap company and Dove the chocolate company are actually two different companies??? One owned by Mars and one by Unilever??? When did this happen???
Read the diffs. Not all of them.
How do you write this whole article and come to the conclusion you can merge unread diffs?
Any good archiver will check for an archived copy before making a request, and batch requests. This was very different than the attack you’re imagining — if you opened any archive.today page, it would poll a developer’s personal blog, regardless of whether you were interacting with content from that blog.
Unfortunately, they’ve allegedly modified the contents of some archived articles, so even though they may do better to archive, nothing archived is of any value because it cannot be trusted.
It does more to handle client-side rendering than archive.org, so there are pages that could be rendered by today that were not archivable by org. Also, because of differing usage patterns, it has archives of pages that org didn’t, and even for pages that org does have, at times org doesn’t.
Deeply saddening. Archive.today was a great resource, and stored a vast repository of human knowledge. As the internet turns to slop, we need sites that preserve the history of the web more than ever, and it’s very disappointing that the team at archive.today has failed us so profoundly in our hour of greatest need.
A good article, but as a millennial, I was completely unprepared for the 2 psychic damage I took from this sentence:
Even based boomerware like IRC has to play second fiddle to them.
There’s a lot of people who come to fedi looking for this spot — maybe it makes sense to see if programming.dev is willing to host such a community?
