Simple Nomad<p>An apparent unpopular opinion, I think "jailbreaking" an LLM is fun but ultimately a waste of time. I'm more interested in asking a serious question about, let's say programming suggestions for a new subroutine and seeing if the answer is actually secure. Trying this in multiple programming languages. And adding to that, seeing what prompts help encourage the LLM replies to actually spit out secure code. I mean a lot of those LLMs were trained on data like Stack Overflow, I mean think about it.</p><p>Yes this is in response to a conversation from yesterday.</p><p><a href="https://rigor-mortis.nmrc.org/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infosec</span></a> <a href="https://rigor-mortis.nmrc.org/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>security</span></a> <a href="https://rigor-mortis.nmrc.org/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ai</span></a></p>

Those of you outside of the US with cloud backups, perhaps as part of your overall backup strategy.

Where exactly is that cloud data physically stored? Inside the US perhaps?

Now imagine that US data isn't available for some odd reason. Perhaps an ongoing trade dispute between your country and the US, as a hypothetical scenario.

Now, further imagine that one of your other backups becomes unavailable.

Can you recover what is needed in short order? 🤨🤷‍♂️
