[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] ChatGPT (Open-Source) Is Dying

[Dick Miller]

Thanks, Bob! But, that September article only mentions four of the now 
FIVE reasons that "/ChatGPT/ is dying".

 From November 11th (https://www.wired.com/story/signal-usernames/):
*"A DDoS attack shuts down /ChatGPT/."

*Which may explain why, four days earlier...
 From November 7th 
(https://www.wired.com/story/5-updates-gpt-4-turbo-openai-chatgpt-sam-altman/):
*"Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, announced a new model for /ChatGPT/ at the 
company’s developer conference."
*Coincidence, you say?? I think not!

That said, I expect /ChatGPT/ to be alive and fairly well for a long 
time to come. It's already doing too many impressive things in too many 
hands. (In an random elevator, how many people are wearing face masks? I 
rest my case.)

Not to worry! Not when you can worry about this morning's news, instead 
(https://arstechnica.com/security/2023/11/hackers-can-steal-ssh-cryptographic-keys-in-new-cutting-edge-attack/):
*"For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that a large portion 
of cryptographic keys used to protect data in computer-to-server SSH 
traffic are vulnerable to complete compromise when naturally-occurring 
computational errors occur while the connection is being established. An 
error as small as a single flipped memory bit is all it takes to expose 
a private key.
The researchers suspect keys used in IPsec connections could suffer the 
same fate."

*As we already know, /*The Country's In The Very Best Of Hands*/
