I made an GPT-powered Linux shell that guesses your bash command (and hallucinates crazy stuff)

This is 100% real. No, you shouldn't trust the AI.

As promised, I tried out a bunch of your suggestions for commands! Check out the results here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3zTlaOIfaeAna8

[@AlexanderNohe]

"Setup a Firefox development environment" or "setup my machine to develop chromium browser" Those are multi step processes and vary based on machine type. Would be interesting to see it fetch chromium or Firefox and go through the bootstrapping

[@riveducha]

Might have to tweak the token limit and/or stop-words to allow a long set of commands but I’m curious to see what it’ll do!

[@kuhluhOG]

"setup up a Linux kernel development environment" could be interesting too or actually for any complex type of software

[@Uristqwerty]

Filled rectangles may unconsciously transfer size metadata. Even better to replace redacted information with an easter egg or troll, then reversibly blur *that* instead. Or, if not better, at least substantially more fun. Hey, waitaminut-

[@dasleo]

AI can GENERATE clear images based on blurred samples, but not ones of the actual key. It's impossible to recreate the key from information that simply isn't in the video anymore.

[@icetrooper4875]

@@dasleo I got what you mean, but if you have enough samples (many frames in video) and know the blurring algorithm, regenerating key could be possible. I know, it's not as simple as I described it, but I'm sure with some effort you can do it. Look here what we've got already: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWKkq2OBrKeVjsU I think it should be a rule of thumb not to blur images when you want to hide something vulnerable. Let's just be aware of that. :)

Hey y'all, I put up a zip file of the code on the linked web page! I couldn't figure out what's going on with readline, so you can try commenting out readline if you're running into text-wrapping issues. And yes, you should be able to bolt it on to a local GPT model too.

[@Sparkette]

You might as well have just pressed Enter when it did the command to format the drive, assuming you weren't running it as root.

[@nottenarwle9906]

This is terrifying for all the right reasons. I like how the AI also "forgot" that ls doesn't list all directory entries by default at 1:37. How abstract can commands be? Can it translate "Start ad-hoc bash web server that flips images at port 80" to a while loop with nc, curl, convert in the mix?

[@riveducha]

My guess is that commands that people have explained on the Web are most likely to work and anything past that is pretty iffy. It failed on "sort data.csv by the last column ascending", for example. But I like the web server idea and will try it out!

[@Corbald]

Could you try this with GPT-J?

[@thisjustincole]

Can you try running some openssl commands? Like convert a PFX to private and public PEM files? Or generate a root CA and a signed localhost certificate issued by that CA? There are so many openssl commands and options, it seems like a good use case for something like this.

[@riveducha]

Coincidentally, I had it list all supported SSLv3 ciphers early on (didn't make it into the video). If there are web pages that explain these OpenSSL commands, there's a good chance the GPT model knows about it. I will try it out!

[@12-343]

Wait so the commands are all generated by OpenAI, it knows the bash commands and you don't have to do anything abiut that?

OpenAI fed the AI model a ton of text (I think mainly from the web). So it should know about anything there’s a lot of online. It has no idea what’s actually installed on my computer though.

[@baumaffe7649]

@@riveducha That's very interesting! But still how does it know what shell you are using for instance? Are you sending more parameters?

[@riveducha]

I wrote a bit about this in the linked web page, but I give it a few hand-written examples so it knows what to generate. There’s no guarantee it will stay on topic, but bash on Linux is usually the assumption online so the probability is good. If you asked for PowerShell it might stray off topic, but I haven’t tried.
