Always satanise your inputs.
My gawds, some people need to learn what’s a homage and also stop being upset on behalf of others. This comic is fine, stop bellyaching. This is what terminal permission culture does to a motherfucker.
What is terminal permission if I may ask?
Hrm, give me a moment to check the ACLs, I’ll be able to resolve all these complex conflicting rules shortly…
Nevermind, it was easier to just globally disable SeLinux so I did that. Your system should be more secure now.
Narky, but real, updoot.
Permission culture is a term primarily criticizing copyright law. Something that I would expect db0 to agree with! 🏴☠️
The only person who should care about anything other than the quality is Randall. However since he licensed it CC BY-NC 2.5 how he feels about it doesn’t really matter either.
I think people should be concerned about things on others’ behalfs. We all need to stick together.
This situation is a send-up though. Totally not a concern.
Oh definitely! I just meant in this particular case.
We can probably infer by the licensing that he’s cool with it.
if someone is actually using ai to grade papers I’m gonna LITERALLY drink water
I’m gonna literally drink water if they DON’T
I’m drinking water as we speak and none of you can stop me!
I’m going to drink my water before you get to it!

drinks the blood.
NOW I HAVE YOUR WATER!!
weeps
immediately a Fremen begins to extoll about my water giving virtues
I have a colleague who is trying hard to do it, but it isn’t good enough yet fortunately. I point out as many issues as I can to deter him but it ain’t working.
Reminds me of: https://www.wired.com/story/null-license-plate-landed-one-hacker-ticket-hell/
A guy thought it would be funny to change his license plate to NULL.
More like “And I hope you learned not to trust the wellbeing and education of the children entrusted to you to a program that’s not capable of doing either.”
Well that would require too much work invested into stealing of https://xkcd.com/327/
I am extremely horrified by the prospect of GenAI grading.
A new ripoff of an old classic
In a version that doesn’t even fully make sense. With databases there is a well-defined way to sanitize your inputs so arbitrary commands can’t be run like in the xkcd comic. But with AI it’s not even clear how to avoid all of these kinds of problems, so the chiding at the end doesn’t really make sense. If anything the person should be saying “I hope you learned not to use AI for this”.
Is it a ripoff if they credit the original?
Are you implying that the credit is here? If so, where? I am not seeing it.
Lower right corner.
Thanks!:-)
Shocked the title of the original isn’t Little Bobby Tables.
I honestly didn’t notice that - it was a bit small and pixelated, good catch
if they make it almost exactly the same and “credit” it in the smallest font possible and didn’t get permission from the original author… i would say that’s definitely a ripoff
It’s a parody
How is this a parody? It’s not poking fun at the original or pointing out its flaws.
quoth wikipedia: “A parody is a creative work designed to imitate, comment on, and/or mock its subject by means of satirical or ironic imitation.” … “The literary theorist Linda Hutcheon said ‘parody … is imitation, not always at the expense of the parodied text.’”
yeah, and that’s not a parody.
It’s not a parody. It’s a homage
it’s not a hoe-midge, it’s an oh-marge
It’s not an oh-marge, it’s ho-mahg-ee.
its not a ho, Marge. Gee, she’s a real person.
It’s not a homage, it’s just the exact same joke.
But updated for our new hellscape!
didn’t get permission from the original author
Tell me you don’t know xkcd without saying you don’t know xkcd. These comics are licensed as CC-BY-NC 2.5, which means you are allowed to remix and use them, without explicitly asking for permission, as long as you attribute the original/author (which is given here) and as long as you do it non-commercially (which is given for this post IMHO).
This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.5 License.
that’s not attribution.
Tell me you don’t know xkcd without saying you don’t know xkcd.
tell me you’re completely uncreative without telling me you’re completely uncreative.
the rest of what i said stands… but whooooa you “got me” i didn’t read the license on xkcd
remake of a classic
Little Bobby Tables

Here’s the XKCD: https://xkcd.com/327/
LLM system input is unsanitizable, according to NVidia:
The control-data plane confusion inherent in current LLMs means that prompt injection attacks are common, cannot be effectively mitigated, and enable malicious users to take control of the LLM and force it to produce arbitrary malicious outputs with a very high likelihood of success.
