Oh damn, so just viewing a file in your file manager is enough to get infected in an insecure desktop environment, as thumbnails can be generated programmatically? If I clicked a bad link that would 100% infect my system.
I'm not worried too much about screen-capture. I'm worried first and foremost about triggering any arbitrary code execution and thumbnail generation on a file would definitely do it.
The "generative" AI debate.
Most of the criticisms are misleading and hyperbolic (if not straight up counter-productive), and it has zero real use cases other than making the internet useless by filling it with thousands of scam websites. I guess it could also be used to give you a TLDR of things. Either way though nothing we do or say is going to change things since the technology is already out there.
