Who knew everyone had the same password as me? I always thought I was the only ‘hunter2’ out there!

Maybe they’re asking chatgpt to generate a password for them

As a general rule of thumb, do not do this.

Using an LLM as a password generator. The fuck? That’s like using the Sistine Chapel as inspiration for a post card.

It also literally says to not input sensitive data…

This is one of the first things I flagged regarding LLMs, and later on they added the warning. But if people don’t care and are still gonna feed the machine everything regardless, then that’s a human problem.

People literally do this though. I work in IT and people have literally said, out loud, with people around that can hear what we’re saying clearly, this exact thing.

I’m like… I don’t want your password. I never want your password. I barely know what my password is. I use a password manager.

IT should never need your password. Your boss and work shouldn’t need it. I can log in as you without it most of the time. I don’t, because I couldn’t give any less of a fuck what the hell you’re doing, but I can if I need to…

If your IT person knows what they’re doing, most of the time for routine stuff, you shouldn’t really see them working, things just get fixed.

Gah.

Lmao my IT guy asks for our passwords to certain things on an annual basis, stores them as plain text in a fucking email.

First Time he did it I was like “uhh, not supposed to share that?” And he just insisted he needed it. Whatever, he wants to log in to my Autodesk account he’s free to. Not sure how much damage he could do.

I had a student graduate recently who told me that he thought that technology just worked before joining my team of computer lab managers. I suspect that people think that tech in general JUST GOES.

Stupid is too harsh. They could be as intelegent as you or me. but… they are told propaganda/marketing, the thing is made to hide its rough edges and the hype from the propaganda machine puts people in a hazey mindset where its hard to think.

They are certainly pretty stupid if they are as intelligent as me.

I think the average person is not very smart, especially considering the USA, Russia, China, and India are large parts of the world population. Now realize that half of everyone below median intellect is even dumber than that. The fact that propaganda and hype are highly effective to start with is evidence of our lacking capabilities as a species.
