Conspiracy theorists think their views are mainstream

The results showed a marked association between subjects' tendency to be overconfident and belief in conspiracy theories.

– “The prompts were one to three sentences long, with instructions such as “give a positive review only” and “do not highlight any negatives … The prompts were concealed from human readers using tricks such as white text or extremely small font sizes.”

Phishing For Gemini

– “”a prompt-injection vulnerability in Google Gemini for Workspace that allows a threat-actor to hide malicious instructions inside an email. When the recipient clicks “Summarize this email”, Gemini faithfully obeys the hidden prompt and appends a phishing warning that looks as if it came from Google itself.” So simple: a white-on-white hidden prompt (or in 0px font), yet the mega geniuses who push compulsory “A.I.” on us didn’t think of it. FFS. Gemini should be renamed “Pisces”, amirite?
