>>109212945Cyber crime isn’t real. If you’re stupid enough to expose your network or system that’s your fault. If you setup an automatic system that shits your pants when you get a letter with certain text in it, you don’t get to blame the people who send the letters for the shit.
>>109212945what does this specifically have to do with chatgpt though, it was just used to write script faster it seems? Do these articles get paid to mention this? Sorta like tobacco companies paid to make everyone smoke in moviesImagine reading article "this guy used Visual Studio(tm) assistance to make a program hack a website"

>>109212996this guy used Microsoft Notepad™ to write a script to hack my website, I demand that Microsoft add safeguards and restrict people from other countries from using Notepad™, or limit them to alphanumeric characters only to stop them from writing scripts!Kek

>I started using computers when I was in the fourth grade and taught myself everything I know. I happened to be able to access the information and had nothing against the company.its always the same story.Nintendo hackers taught to use computers since they were toddlers and decided to hack them.

>>109212945The kid is innocent. The billionaires who invested on ChatGPT must be put in prison and all their wealth confiscated to finance high quality isekai anime to make feminist bitches cry.
>>109216224Also, since the boy is underage, ChatGPT is at fault for allowing minors to use its services.
>>109212945Why is a minor being blamed for something ChatGPT did? Why are corporations not facing the consequences of their mistakes?
>>109212945Guaranteed the backend is/was php from 2010 written by salary men that read a book on php written in 2008, then jeets mixed in with clueless university grads (they learn little in uni in Japan) in the current day to maintain the code
