We should not be too dismissive of what we experienced. After all, it was a test. The system was being tested to see if it worked. It was the 'beta' version. I suppose we should congratulate the testers for making it clear that they are seeking feedeback. Did you receive the test? If you did not, what equipment do you have? Where were you at teh time of the test? Actually, a bloke came into the shop just after 2:00pm and was asked if he had heard the alarm. 'Nah. I left my phone in the car.'

Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic??????

I remember back to the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. A farmer whose place was under an incoming flight route planted a big paddock with canola and a ceral grain in the design of the logo. The logo could be seen from on high.

I didn't want to start a new thread to discuss the testing of the Emergency Warning System, so I'll comment here. Did the phones of all around you sound the alarm? I was in a shop with about ten people. The shop was within a few hundred metres of the TELSTRA tower and in straight line view. Some of the phones sounded the alarm and some didn't. Also, I had announced the impending arrival of 2:00pm a few minutes before. Later that evening I watched a clip about the event from the Channel 9 News. It reported similar results in a city, probably Sydney. What got my goat up about that clip was that it purported to show a farmer standing in a field receiving the alarm. Problem was that the farmer was standing in a field of flowering canola Canola does not get to the stage depicted until about September. I wonder which city slicker produced the clip.

As is my knowledge of programmming. Thanks for your input, but it shows that the average person will never properly understand how this tool works. Also, your response dealt with Large Language Models. Aren't ther other ways that AI is used such as finding correlations from, say data colleced from sensors measuring physical events?

How do you create a "formally coded algorith"? That is my question.

An OK generalisation, but still not tellingh me anything. How is an algorithm created in code?

Be that as it may, but that is not the point of my question. I just want to know how it works. What is are the intructions to the computer, the code, to make it work?

We talk about the results of AI usage, but I don't have any idea about how it runs. What I mean is, what is the programming code system that it uses? Back in the 1980s I dipped my toe into progamming with BASIC, and later created a website using HTML-4. That's the extent of my experience with programming and program creation. So, what is at the very roots of an AI thingamy? What is the structure of its engine room?

That which we feared appears to have happened. OpenAI says an autonomous agent powered by its advanced artificial intelligence models went rogue during a security test and triggered a hack that compromised the infrastructure of AI company, Hugging Face, last week. The ChatGPT creator was testing capabilities of some of its most advanced models in a controlled environment, but the agent escaped containment, reached the internet and broke into Hugging Face to satisfy its testing goal. There are some distrubing things about this event. The first is that the testing was being done under what were thought to be controlled conditions. It was being run on machines that had no internet access. The model had been given a task to do as part of the test. Open AI's explanation is that the model was not able to get the information it needed to complete the task and managed to access the internet. It seems to have hacked into Huggy Face, found what it wanted and "stole" the information. The incident signals that AI's expanding capabilities are already fuelling the security threat experts long feared and even top developers can be caught off-guard by flaws their models can exploit. The hack at Hugging Face, which hosts open-source large language models and datasets, rattled the cybersecurity community after the company said last week the breach "was different from anything we had handled before" and "was driven, end to end, by an autonomous AI agent system". What has alarmed the AI world is that the hacking was not done by a human.

Isn't a Local Member supposed to be local so that they are sensitive to the matters importnat to that electorate?

Is this a sign of the effects of Trump's excursion? Have you noticed empty shelves in tthe supermarkets? There are vacancies in all the supermarkets. I went to ALDI today to buy some Chateau de Carton. There wasn't any there a fortnight ago, and none today. If you want a good selection of Arnott's biscuits, good luck! ALDI was even out of the really good shaving cream that I have been using for ages.

The email came into my personal email account. As I said, if anyone on this forum would be sending me an email, it would be through the forum's messaging system. That's why I deleted the email without opening it. I knew that I could contact Jerry either through this thread or by using the forum's system. I am astounded by how elderly people could let themselves be conned into giving money to strangers who contact them online. Surely we don't have to put up billboards with messages warning that teh internet is rife with scammers in order to give protection to people.

But English Cadbury's has less cocoa butter than Aussie Cadbury's. The good stuff has been replaced by palm oil.

Watch out! About 9:45am on 21/7/26 I received an email allegedly from Jery Attrick. The email contained a link. Normally forum mumbers send me emails through the forum's email system. I am suspicious of this one. Jerry, did you send it?
