Frustrated with @SouthwestAir 😡. Can't start passwords with special characters & they cut my 24-character password to 16 without warning! Why limit security? 🚫🔑 #PasswordPain

This is not 1995.

Replying to @SouthwestAir
For example - I completed the login creation with my 24 character password and went to login and got a password not recognised. No indication why. I had to figure it out for myself that you were truncating.

Replying to @SouthwestAir
Truncating the password without warning me also adds friction to using a random password generator.

Replying to @SouthwestAir
Thanks for your response. Not allowing first character special character is an indication that you have code that is susceptible to injection attacks imho. Plus it adds friction for using a random password generator.

The future of LLMs will be open source models trained on customer specific data and securely deployed within the customers own cloud infrastructure.
True story when I joined PwC in the 90’s, employees weren’t allowed to access the internet from their PCs due to security concerns. Each era brings its own set of challenges which are rapidly overcome 😊 wsj.com/articles/jpmorgan-re…

A mental model I have of AI is it was roughly ~linear progress from 1960s-2010, then exponential 2010-2020s, then has started to display 'compounding exponential' properties in 2021/22 onwards. In other words, next few years will yield progress that intuitively feels nuts.

Today, I testified to the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, & Transportation @commercedems. I used an @AnthropicAI language model to write the concluding part of my testimony. I believe this marks the first time a language model has 'testified' in the U.S. Senate.
