  • Holy shit, you’re too far gone. Yes, I’ve operated my own local LLM front end for personal use and have run them frequently in the past at a low level with no front end and messed with parameters directly. I’ve modified models as well, and I have a server designed to run them. It’s insane that you think those apply to his topic (billionaires lying to you). You’re just throwing random terminology out to make yourself seem smart and to reinforce your stance, but all that does is make you seem insecure about your knowledge. It does quite the opposite of what you intend.

    All LLMs do is hallucinate, and sometimes, by pure coincidence, get things correct. This is why it’s impossible to get rid of hallucinations. They do not think, they do not have their own goals (refusing a request can be baked in, but that’s no different than programming something with guardrails), and they certainly will not suddenly become sentient. LLMs cannot do that, by design. Perhaps something else could, but LLMs are not that.

    You really had to go to insults for this? I think you need to touch grass and stop believing billionaire marketing. LLMs are not technologically capable of doing what you have been brainwashed to believe. They will crash the economy when the bubble bursts, because MBAs and billionaires have convinced you and rich VCs that they can do more than they actually can.

















  • I’m not sure why you’re trying to bring that up when this comment of yours is what I’ve been responding to the entire time:

    Nope. Cloudflare use a complex set of fingerprinting tools that determine security scores. It’s literally social credit system for web user agents and the site admits have little control over that.

    Cloudflare does force nor opt in site admins to use the score. You said that site admins have little control over that. That is not true, because site admins do not have to use the score when configuring WAF. If they do not configure blocking based on score, they do not block the scored traffic at any point, no matter the score.

    Your comment before this one said:

    You control the score but not how its calculated. My score is incredibly high just because I’m on Linux with Firefox - how important is that to you as an e-commerse site admin?

    So I said that the score doesn’t matter if you don’t block based on score. Since my client with an e-commerce site isn’t configuring any WAF rules based on the determined score, then it isn’t important to me (as a site admin plus their Cloudflare administrator), because it’s not a factor at all.

    Now, if you were to enable the rule to block based on score then it could certainly affect users, because it was configured to do so. It comes down to proper configuration of the tools provided. If I were going to use the WAF rule based on score (again, I don’t do this, because I use other rules to check for malicious traffic), I would configure it with a managed/interactive challenge and not block them entirely. Cloudflare provides you with a percent metric based on how often this challenge is passed.
