    So this is weirder than it looks at a glance.

    That is not an LLM-generated search result. That is a funny ha-ha mistake a LLM made that then some guy compiled in his blog about AI.

    Google then did their usual content-stealing thing, which probably does involve some ML, but not in the viral ChatGPT way and made that card by quoting the blog quoting the LLM making the mistake. And then everybody quoted that because it’s weird and funny and it replicates all the viral paranoia about this stuff.

            It will try but unfortunately in the process of deleting your os the shell process of deleting will be affected and stop there.

            However it can be savely assumed that you won’t be able to boot into it again and that your data is gone.

              Isn’t the shell process loaded into RAM? In fact the entire session is, wouldn’t it be fine until you try to access a file somehow?

                Deleting acesses the file, also background Services will refresh their ram at some point sth will break everything before you can delete it. Well maybe with an nvme and fast cpu you might be fast enough

            Theoretically yes, but pretty much every modern Linux installation has some guards built in to the rm command to prevent it from deleting everything. Adding the flag --no-preserve-root removes this and gives you the classic DFE experience. (even without the flag though rm -rf / will still majorly fuck up your system.)

          I mean, as long as you are ok with also nuking all search engines.

          To be honest, text chatbots have done very little to move the needle one way or the other, and all search engines are barely usable right now, chatbots or no. I had some hopes for an AI implementation with speciific training on how to parse search results, but all we’re getting is the first couple of results read back to us.

          So yeah, I get that people needed a new bad guy after crypto imploded, but it’s a shame that the discourse became what it is, in that it both fails to pay off on tech that is actually pretty cool when used right and it leaves a lot of old tech that is getting noticeably worse off the hook.
