Comment on Oncoliruses: LLM Viruses are the future and will be a pest, say good bye to decent tech.
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoIt is so funny that you are all like “that would never work, because there are no such things as vulnerabilities on any system”
Why would I? the whole point is to create a LLM virus, and if the model is good enough, then it is not that hard to create.

Of course vulnerabilities exist. And creating a major one like this for an LLM would likely lead to it destroying things like a toddler (in fact this has already happened to a company run by idiots)
But what it didn’t do was copy-with-changes as would be required to ‘evolve’ like a virus. Because training these models requires intense resources and isn’t just a terminal command.

Who said they need to retrain? A small modification to their weights in each copy is enough. That’s basically training with extra steps.
