An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Guardian: [Five skilled workers aged 50 and older spoke] to the Guardian about how, after struggling to find work in their fields, they have turned to an emerging and growing category of work: using their expertise to train artificial intelligence models. Known as data annotation, the work involves labeling and evaluating the information used to train AI models like Open AI's ChatGPT or Google's Gemini. A doctor, for example, might review how an AI model answers.

Longtime Slashdot reader schwit1 writes: California's long-delayed high-speed rail project is now facing renewed scrutiny after state leaders revealed a dramatically higher price tag, now estimated at roughly $231 billion, nearly seven times the original $33 billion projection approved by voters in 2008.

Использую AI каждый день и устал от одной штуки — результат непредсказуемый. Час итераций, простыня на полстраницы с ролями, со «step by step», с «think carefully», и в итоге сидишь и переписываешь сам. Длина не лечит, магические слова не лечат. Промпт — не молитва. Проблема в том, что ты не подумал, что вообще хочешь получить.После часа итераций сидишь и думаешь: я что вообще делегировал — задачу или надежду на то,... Read more ›

Мы искали уязвимости в RAG-платформе с десятками тысяч пользователей — а нашли доступ ко всей инфраструктуре и API-ключам с бюджетом в сотни тысяч долларов. Две недели мы строили сложные цепочки: SSRF через LangChain, инъекции в промпты, HTTP smuggling, CVE в десериализации. Ни одна не дала результата. А потом мы сделали один curl к открытому порту — и получили все ключи за 5 минут.Эта статья — не гайд по взлому. Это... Read more ›

![[Перевод] Пять документов ломают ваш RAG: где реальная уязвимость и что с ней делать](https://times42.com/media/2/2/9/12354229_640x200.jpg "[Перевод] Пять документов ломают ваш RAG: где реальная уязвимость и что с ней делать")
RAG часто воспринимают как аккуратный способ «заземлить» LLM на документах и снизить риск галлюцинаций. Но у этой архитектуры есть менее очевидная проблема: контекст из базы знаний обычно считается доверенным, хотя именно через него в модель могут попасть вредоносные инструкции. В статье разбираем, как несколько отравленных документов могут повлиять на ответы системы, почему эмбеддинги нельзя считать безопасной абстракцией и какие уровни защиты нужны, если RAG используется не в демо, а в...
