Mark Gadala-Maria posts that the Titty Killer series is one of the most promising developments in AI, quoting a post by Charlie Curran asking whether AI film can be art. The post offers no further detail.
Jukan describes how researchers identified a hacker behind a cyberattack on South Korean banks after he left directory listing enabled on his server and exposed Claude Code session files. A quoted post cites a CrowdStrike report saying one person may have carried out the attack using several AI tools.
This hacker is truly legendary. A complete amateur.
1. He left directory listing enabled on his own server, so researchers could figure out who he was with barely any effort. 2. They found files like CLAUDE.md and went through his Claude Code sessions. 3. There were questions like, “Where can I sell this data?” 4. He’d also asked, “Can you write my résumé?” That pretty much handed them all his personal information. 5. Apparently, he’s a student at South China University of Technology living in Guangdong. His name, phone number, and where he lives have all been identified.
Last week some of South Korea's biggest banks were hit by a cyberattack. Thanks to a report from CrowdStrike tonight, we now know the entire hack may have been done by a single person. He used a combined stack of an open-source AI penetration tool named ARTEX, DeepSeek v4.1-Flash, GLM-5.3, Grok 4.6, and Claude Code.
Levelsio says a test URL posted as a deeply buried reply drew thousands of crawlers within eight seconds, including a military intelligence firm and a social media monitoring company. He concludes that automated systems monitor X for new links.
I discovered that 1000s of bots are actively monitoring X for new links posted, probably not just on my account
I noticed when everytime I'd share one of my sites new features or pages, the page would get a bit slower just after posting, then I asked Claude to analyze it
I tweeted a test URL as a reply somewhere deeply hidden in a thread (so not even a main post)
And within 8 seconds there's thousands of crawlers opening the page!
One is a military intelligence firm, that scans social media for breaking news and sells alerts to newsrooms, banks, companies and government, it specifically follows accounts with many followers
Another one is a social media monitoring company that tracks what people say online
I knew of course high frequency trading firms use online news to trade fast on things, but interesting to see it in real life
Twitterbot (X) of course is first, within 0 seconds of sharing, it opens it (probably when I wrote the tweet)
The first non-X bot arrives just 8.40s later, which I think is pretty fast considering it's a reply by me deeply hidden in a thread somewhere
A reader-shared post from the account Fundamental Investor reposts a video addressed to Elon Musk from an Indian entrepreneur, framed as a message to Indian audiences. The post itself contains little detailed text beyond the greeting and the video.
Jason thanks Deedy Das for hosting while he travels to Tokyo, quoting a post in which Das's AI agent contested a EUR 600 airline refund by escalating to a human and then a manager. The exchange is brief and mostly social.
Deedy Das's AI agent is fighting an airline for his €600 refund. It chatted with the rep, escalated to a human, then asked for the manager. What's the first task you'd hand your agent? Refunds, bills, or bookings? @deedydas
