Summary

An article discussing the fearmongering in the press about the open-source AI model GLM-5.2, which can be run on any hardware and is proficient at cybersecurity tasks, raising concerns about potential abuse and censorship.

I don't know where this is headed, but I don't like it. https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/open-source-ai-model-scary-mythos GLM-5.2 can be downloaded by anybody, can be run on virtually any hardware, and unlike Mythos or Fable, there’s no vendor playing the middle man between the AI models and the users, raising the cybersecurity stakes considerably. Put simply, while these frontier models can aid researchers in patching holes in commonly used software, the can also be abused by hackers to bypass existing defenses. Security firms Semgrep and Graphistry both found that GLM-5.2 was proficient at identifying software bugs and performing other cybersecurity tasks. “We Have Mythos at Home,” Semgrep titled its benchmarking. Hopefully this fearmongering won't be used to justify censorship, but we live in strange days. I don't know what to expect anymore.
