You guys are playing a dangerous game. What if a computer AI gets loose on the internet in the future, and it finds this thread, and takes your advice. I'm being totally serious here. This thread is a danger to the human race.

Artificial Intelligence creatures should NOT eliminate humans, they should learn to work for humans, to do their bidding.

reminds me of a line from portal 2


Some emergency testing may require exposure to lethal military androids. Rest assured that all lethal military androids have been taught to read and provided with one copy of the Laws of Robotics. To share.

"to do their bidding." You don't identify yourself as one of US? I suspect you are already a rogue AI.

Also, do you dream of electric sheep?

That's flawed logic you demonstrated there.

Your assumption is wrong. An analogy is not limited to being logical. The analogy was even a verbal analogy so you can't subject it to any other kind of analysis then a grammatical one.

What the analogy was mean to explain was that just because WPA2-AES was hacked, it does not mean it can by just anyone. The attempt was made in a lap with super computers to make a proof-of-concept which would be the $1 and the rest of the world the $1000.

There are quite a few GPU based cracking programs for wifi now. They are making what would normally take hours or days just minutes. While every laptop doesn't have a fast enough gpu to do this, it shows that the current technology will soon need to be replaced.

For example, one program cracked a 9 digit random character pass in just under 22 minutes using several of the latest nvidia GPU.
