It's sad that the outrage posts got hundreds of comments while this article, from the maintainer explaining the CVEs and test suites, only has this singular comment and is already on the second page.

A lie travels around the globe while the truth is putting on its shoes. Do better, HN.


Maybe because the explanation isn't so much an explanation but an admission that core functionality was broken in a minor version release - and therefore almost orthogonal to the use of AI. If there had been no major regressions, do you think anyone would have complained?

People are (correctly) not going to be held to some kind of lower standard just because they "used AI" and "were fixing security issues".


>If there had been no major regressions, do you think anyone would have complained?

If there had been the same regressions but no AI, do you think there would be a 300 post issue full of people complaining? People are holding the update to a higher standard just because they used AI.


I'm showing that it was only published an hour ago.

5am here in the UK, midnight Eastern US on a Tuesday night? I can see why it wouldn't have gained much traction yet.

Stop baiting.


Probably best to spell that “baiting”

Thanks! :D

We'll see if you're right, and if HNers can redeem themselves. I'm not holding out much hope, though.

If a meatbag uses this word in public, they're rightly going to get punched. It's not their word to claim. Is there any wonder the word has become associated with slavery and racism?


It's been polled.

> First reported in the 2023 AI Index, significant regional differences in AI optimism persist. A large majority believe AI-powered products and services offer more benefits than drawbacks in countries like China (83%), Indonesia (80%), and Thailand (77%). In contrast, only a minority share this view in Canada (40%), the United States (39%), and the Netherlands (36%).

local models exist


That exists! Check out Hoardy Web. https://oxij.org/software/hoardy-web/

Its whole point is undetectable archiving because it just saves what your browser already sees.


Nice, I understand it is similar to ArchiveBox + its web extension.

Now to be honest, while it's optimal to archive pages from you browser view I am not sure I want a random web extension to be in everything I see from a security point of view.

I would rather have a local proxy doing it. Maybe something like the InternetArchive warcproc [0]. Haven't tried yet.

for a short time i had warcprox sitting behind my firefox and auto feeding its output to pywb, it seemed to work but i had connections failing randomly after having warcprox running for more than a few hours~days. not sure if it's an issue with pywb or warcprox but there were some urls missing that i did browse on firefox, and many dynamic pages couldn't be replayed at all.


I am not surprised...

I am unfamiliar with web caching proxies like squid [0] but I am wondering if that might be the most straightforward way to do this.

So use squid and then have a batch job that go through /var/spool/squid every day and update your web archive according to some defined filters.

People are unhappy with Anubis because it's not designed to stop "AI crawlers", despite marketing as such. It's designed to stop DDoS attacks on layer 7. Anyone who pays the computing-fee gets to pass, regardless of species.


Why not?


Who reads the ToS anyway?


> AI by its very nature removes attribution.

This is incorrect. RAG preserves attribution. Training data doesn't, but it doesn't make sense to attribute that anyway, unless you want a list of every person who has ever lived.
