To attack the problem, Baber used artifical intelligence and generated a list of 71 million possible 13-letter names. Using known details of the Zodiac killer, based on witness descriptions, he cross-checked those names against military, marriage, census and other public records.
At the time, the Compton bungalow complex was called the Zodiac Motel, a fact Baber discovered by using AI to unearth a newspaper ad. He thinks it inspired the name the Bay Area killer called himself.
If 3 separate NSA cryptographers agree it’s a feasible solution then I’m inclined to accept that. Especially since one of them independently discovered it meant the encryption key was “Elizabeth”.
To be the devil’s advocate, that is exactly what AIs are good at. They give answers that sound great, and are, in many ways, like the exceptionally charismatic friend in the group that can answer ‘any’ question… and the answer is great until you get 15 years down the road and finally realize the tiny mistake/lie that unravels the whole bit.
That’s the perfect case for it imo. Ingestion is best done by something efficient, like a scheduler. Use the tool properly and there’s nothing wrong with it. Build it ethically and legally and it’s a boon for mankind. Don’t blame “AI” for the abomination capitalists have created.
Let me guess. Some guy fed it into AI.
It’s not just AI, but there is a bunch of AI:
Did the killer name himself? I thought that usually wasn’t the case.
He did
So now making a special-purpose rainbow table is AI now, too? Or was he too ignorant to know how to do that without resorting to AI?
AI like Google?
Depends on whether the ad was “unearthed” or “hallucinated”.
No way to know for sure but the article makes the theory sound somewhat persuasive.

Yeah, nobody’s buying your ethical AI bullshit
Good because it’s a myth.
