More days searching for Ghost, not just pages about Ghost.
I do not believe that the collective on this list could not supply me
with
a URL, so IT must not exist, or it is intentionally being withheld.
Steve,
I did dance on the edge of the abyss, and just a bit down slope. But
my
targets were government facilities (trains carrying ammo across the
salt
flats to San Diego and Vietnam) or institutions like large banks(they
were
still incredibly naive with regard cybercrime in those days). Can
still
quote my "Little Red Book," and, had they issued them, could show my
SDS
membership. Tales for the grandkids.
Gillian,
Everyone on the list knows I have indulged psychedlics since 1969. I
know
how to extrract heroin, coke, and cook Meth; but have absolutely no
interest in doing so. Have grown shrooms and extracted psylocibin. I
know
there is a fairly simple way to synthesize MDMA without using the
banned
precursor chemicals and might ask Ghost about that.

DaveW -
OK, assume me to be a sociopath, but please tell me where and how to
access ghostGPT.
I don't assume *you* to be a sociopath. I assume that you have a
significant resistance to your own inner sociopath since you (by your
own
anecdote) have played much closer to what to me would be the edges of
an
abyss... or so I assume (fear).
If the analogy holds, my greatest fear about being drafted into the
military was not that I would be killed or maimed by the enemy but
that I
would learn to kill and maim and like it. That by extension I would
become
sloppy about how I identified "the enemy"... maybe during basic
training?
It felt like a real and existential (to the most cherished part of
myself)
threat.
I have held a copy of the anarchist cookbook and even browsed through
it
but again, shied away when I found my eyes drawn to closely to the
details
of certain "tools" which had/have no obvious other purpose than to
enact
asymmetric (and likely anonymous) violence on others. This is not
to say
that I don't have in my mind scenarios where such skills and tools
might be
the only thing between myself and the annihilation of myself and all
that I
love. I am blessed to not live in such a context (so far, and for
the
most part). The fact that others live otherwise is a source of
sadness for
me but I am not tempted to seek those borders and regions myself.
My
instinct is that I am and would be an addict in such a space...
would I be
good enough to survive long enough to truly become "a menace to
society"?
Probably not.
I can find hundreds of pages talking about the tool, but cannot find
the
tool itself.
I promise, no bombs, no drugs (I have my 1960s original copy of T*he
Anarchist's Cookbook *for that), but I do have thousands of questions
that I would like to ask, and it would be cool to do my own
assessment of
the risk that such a tool might actually pose. Is that risk as
overblown as
most of the claims made for AI, the dark web, or Silk Road (Ross
Freed!!!).
By analogy (again), I worked right up against secrets of nuclear
weapons... There was little, if anything I learned about them that
was
more shocking or horrific than what everyone knows about them, and
that
knowledge did not seem specifically like a burden to me. Maybe some
of
the details of the fancy tricks used to make designs "intrinsically"
foolproof (fool safe, safe even in the hands of fools?) made me
uncomfortable to be the vessel of such.
I was much more uncomfortable as I shifted my exposure from
"conventional"
nuclear weapons design (and many other things) to more "conventional"
military and intelligence projects. By the time I left in 2008 my
clearance levels had risen, and exposure to projects put me in the
orbit
(IMO) of the kinds of things that I think triggered Snowden (and
others) to
take outrageous measures. My biggest fear was that I was going to
learn
or see something I couldn't unlearn or unsee. I kept my clearance
for a
couple of years, staying engaged with a couple of very mellow
projects
which never came close to such information. This was *before*
Snowden.
His unfurling back in (2014ish?) was quite conflicting and PTSD-ey
for me.
I worked with people who *sought* to work on the most implicative
projects, and IMO it was *mostly* ego driven, but in some cases it
felt
acutely that they were truly well, grounded people who had no "inner
sociopath" and knew it?
One last tangential anecdote relates to my working my way through
college
as a PI... the more I learned about the craft and the more I learned
about
the targets of my clients (and more to the point, about my clients)
the
less I wanted to do the work.... this was Flagstaff, AZ a pretty
small,
nominally innocent town but the surface(s) I scratched trying to
scratch
out a living for a young family lead me to see and know things that
would
have been miserable to live with had I remained there.
The red/blue pill dilemma?
Mumble,
- Steve

"GhostGPT is a chatbot specifically designed to cater to

effectively removing any ethical safeguards. By eliminating the

provide direct, unfiltered answers to sensitive or harmful queries
