• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

As I have multiple times warned, the new "AI" tools have the potential
to be used to automate the crime cycles of huge crime syndicates,
as well as individual criminals.

The slackness of Congress to keep up with this technology, with regulation,
will make the effect even worse in America.

The billionaires who own the big social media networks, don't want to be
regulated. BUT, their influence also puts American citizens at greater risk of
being fleeced by the new Generative AI tools.

Most of the AI that would be used in crime is probably open source or something similar. Not large language models from big tech companies. Using an LLM from one of the major companies requires registration to communicate with an API, something criminals wouldn't be interested in.

Well - for the run-of-the-mill guy in his parent's basement, sure.

BUT -

There is big money in cyber-crime. Roughly 8 trillion a year.


That is big money that can afford smart people to figure out how to make their own tools or use existing ones for bad ends.

In addition, you have the state sponsored cyber-criminals.


China in particular has been big in the AI field. Would China use their AI powers for evil? They already use their tech to sponsor cyber-crime. AI is just the next logical step in that for them.

Bottom line, they'll make their own AI's or figure out how to utilize existing ones.

They can probably just use Deepseek and modify it to run it locally. (Also China doesn't care about U.S. crime or EU crime, so even if they were sending their keystrokes to China with their criminal A.I., the investigators would have to extradite the data to get it and China may not hand it over.)

If you're interested, Fireship on YouTube has a lot of informative videos, I just don't trust myself to check videos for profanity good enough to post them here.
