Hey just curious, to what extent you using ai to help with proactive exploit discovery?

We use frontier AI models to review all our code but it hasn't replaced human review and humans need to review the output from it. It adds significantly more work and has resulted in a lot of issues being fixed.

We're not currently putting a large amount of resources into finding Linux, AOSP or Chromium vulnerabilities this way because many others are doing it with far more resources including Google. There are much higher impact things for us to focus on instead. Our focus remains systemic privacy and security improvement rather than case-by-case fixing of bugs. We definitely do that much better through shipping Linux and Android patches much faster than the Pixel OS along with fixing many issues ourselves but it's not our priority for the most part. Certain parts of it are priorities such as finding and fixing VPN leaks because Google doesn't consider it to be a relevant security issue.


>Coding flattened out like 9 months ago.

It absolutely has not. You do have a nice point with data though, somehow haven't thought about that


not taking risks is the biggest risk in the times when the most anticipated game drop (gta 6) is probably going to be decompiled within days if not hours of release


Yeah i'm pretty sure this is doable multiple times on a 20 dollar subscription, just wow


I wish there was a way to sort by recency, if i'm mainly interested in finding obscure gems from like last 6 to 12 months of ai and tech updates


added a few minutes ago!


Why's the newest video 5 months old?


Even with a fresh dump, it would lag behind YouTube, since a video only gets in once someone links it on HN.

I took all the channels HN keeps recommending (3+ videos in Karpathy's data) and made a page with their fresh uploads as they come in: https://hn.youtldr.com

(I make YouTLDR, which writes the one-line answer under each video.)


Don't see it.


first do a search, then on top you'll see "Filter". might try to make more prominent from main page


Yes, please, I couldn't figure it out as well.


added! now can be done via Filter on the main page.


thanks!


Yeah, this is the first thing I looked for and when I couldn’t find it I easily decided it’s something I would never come back to. Add this feature and it’s something I would come to frequently


plus one when in programming mode; i have playlists on YT; but this helps to focus... and mostly I find HN has very interesting things that spawn a ton of thoughts...

people like us don't have that much time...


Seconded! (please)


Well, build your own in 2.1hrs (or 2 minutes if you have access to the source)


Not worth (I'm an insider)


your username's not orange.


Less competition? :D


got me wondering how many complaints you see online are one shottable by any decent model with 30 seconds of "i have this issue: . provide easiest working solution" prompting


Yesterday I was watching a tv program online on the legitimate website of the broadcaster, but I was really annoyed at the fact that the video stopped whenever I left the tab. So I opened Chrome's devtools, went to the AI tab ad exposed my complaint. In a few seconds it had analysed all the minified sources of the website, found which tracker was responsible of this, and written a script to disable it. Lovely.


google, pls. Please


M5 chips instead of m6 are SO DISAPPOINTING! looks like a good laptop otherwise though


M5 pro or max which is better than the m6. There is no m6 pro/max


But I assume they are planned/developed at this point, why not release it with the new Pro?


Historically speaking, the Pro/Max versions of the chips have become available at around the same time the next-generation base chip does. So, M4 Pro/Max shipped when M5 shipped, M5 Pro/Max shipped when M6 shipped, and so forth.


OK, didn't realize that. Makes sense, I guess. Was holding out on buying a new laptop since May for this, definitely not going to wait another year.


The M7 generation is said to be another huge advance on local LLM performance, so Apple is skipping the M6 Pro and M6 Max to bring out the M7 generation early.


Drawing the line at matter welfare when the world still has this much human suffering will never stop being wild to me


Definitely a matter of perspective.


humans are also matter


But some humans are more matter than the others.


They have a pill that can help with that now.


It’s a shot, actually
