How could any general execution environment guarantee memory like that? That doesn't seem like a realistic expectation. You can write safe Rust code if you want memory guarantees in WASM but would you really want it to block the ability to run unsafe Rust code too?

I just meant getting to use 32-bit numbers in general and not just for memory. It's nice to be able to use them for speed but also when things like GPUs only support them. I wish JS supported using them too.

Can you explain why atleast one of them is bad in WASM in your own words? Why be concerned? There are not really that many capabilities inside the WASM program that can be exploited and its hard to imagine a realistic example. An example that paper gave is doing document.write from WASM with unsantized strings but that is bad practice even in Javascript.

which of these vulnerabilities are most concerning to you in wasm programs?

they limit some good things on purpose just for the sake of ecosystem competition. but with this they are slowly implementing it?

what would make it break? i think the program just calls a 64 bit wasm memory function if it uses the capability

32 is better for a lot of things like simd. the strength of it is wasm can do both types now and js can't unfortunately. a number in js is strictly 64.

The gas wasted transporting food that's getting wasted would probably make a huge dent in the problem too.

Then we will have ISPs block us from connecting to those machines. Then they make VPNs illegal too.

Yes and using the information on it isn't "stealing".

It's a ban until they add ID tracking / face tracking. That is worse than banning it. It is only effectively a ban because so far they refuse to do that.

We pay to access the internet as well to cover infrastructure costs. Paying per byte is still a thing today too.

Sadly yes. Sam Altman wants online ID face scanning technology just like the administration does.

We will know if they listen to this order and put ID verification and facial recognition into their LLM. Or hopefully instead they will fight it. Taking it offline instead of 'complying' is a good thing.

Rules like this would just make open models illegal for the exact same justification once they are intelligent enough.

I see I got that impression by you saying their phrasing of the facts was 'odd'.

Knowledge being 'owned' isn't some noble truth. To me, information being able to be shared freely online is the noble thing.

Unless there is major administration change, how do things not get worse and worse from here? LLM's will only get more intelligent and be seen more of a national security risk. This brings the surveillance state deeper into every web connected device.

No it isn't. LLM's are a form of access to information like Libraries or the Internet.

Your defending the US Administration wanting ID verification built into our devices like going through airport security because you think they think it is 'pro-US'?

Nothing is funny about LLMs being restricted like air travel.

They didn't get banned by the government. The government says they they want to track the Identity of everyone who uses it. Same way they track identity when using an airplane.

Now the government uses AI as a way to check your ID online like age restriction but for citizenship. It's not about safety its about control.

This is very bad. They want ID checks to use AI to prove citizenship.

It isn't actually proven true.

Short Storage Number - SSN

use this number as a shorter nibble storage alternative...

Dream? It is a nightmare that computers aren't getting significantly more efficient anymore.

Don't you think there is always going to be an escape hatch for peoples private data? Like if you ask it how to make an explosive the message won't stay private on Google's servers? Seems like there could be all kinds of things like that.

Sounds more thoughtful than the political theater that happened around banning / controlling Tiktok.

Never enabled it or never disabled it? Do you remember disabling it?
