Sounds like an article a toothbrush-botnet-hosted AI would generate.
Kinda a paradoxical situation. Actually, disagreeing with her avoids the paradox. “People change their minds…” doesn’t mean “all people”. But if he agreed, he would have disproven the counter that “no people change their minds…” Disagreeing just says “while this isn’t an example of someone changing their mind, there do exist other examples”.
The side that Catherine picked is unwinnable on the internet.
“Thought experiment” = “Made this shit up”
It was hilarious watching them latch on to it though. If that doesn’t demonstrate that they’re geared for FUD nothing will.
And don’t forget, they’re not owned by the people. They’re not owned by hundreds of different organizations with different ideas. They’re owned by a handful of ultra rich fat (autocorrect but I’m leaving it) far right wing douchebags that do not have the best interests of anyone but themselves in mind ever.
I swear this keep getting reposted every single day for the last 4 days.
I’ve seen now 4 posts over those 4 days from 4 different sites and never heard about whatever stupid story this was originally referring to until these were posted.
Yes, when I see it getting upvoted every time I’m left wondering if there isn’t a bot issue on Lemmy because I also never heard of it and I would be baffled actual humans keep upvoting the same thing over and over
Different tech sites wrote stories about it, they just all are getting posted.
Quick IoT haters, spin this back around. This time make it that the toothbrushes all form into a man sized brush bot that people the brush off.
What the Fortinet headquarters in California is now calling a “translation problem” sounded completely different during the research: Swiss Fortinet representatives described the toothbrush case as a real DDoS at a meeting that discussed current threats…
Fortinet provided specific details: information about how long the attack took down a Swiss company’s website; an order of magnitude of how great the damage was. Fortinet did not want to reveal which company it was out of consideration for its customers.
The text was submitted to Fortinet for verification before publication. The statement that this was a real case that really happened was not objected to.
That makes me put a lot less trust in Fortinet. English is very widely spoken in Switzerland. I can’t really see it bring a translation issue.
Never heard of it.
Never in my life did I think I’d see an internet connected toothbrush. Why do we need such things…
