Interesting. So apparently MIT Sloan can publish an article claiming "80% of ransomware attacks are AI powered", and Safe Security can do the same. A billion press releases can cite it. But the second actual experts push back, suddenly "it's just a working paper, why would anyone criticize it 😭" 1/3
I've just heard from academics that the MIT piece was a pre-publication working paper that invited feedback prior to submission to an academic journal. It was not a final piece. They are baffled at the criticism. @gossithedog.bsky.social

Today I changed the name of my game on Steam from "Jack of Clubs" to "Jack of Clubs Golf".

I tagged it as a golf game on launch, but Steam ignores that and it doesn't appear in searches for "golf".

I'm hoping this fixes that.
