I'll be the victim. This idiot Karl is messing the internet all up with his derogatory speech. Let's make the world a better place by filtering everything he says so that it's nice! Luckily I am Karl, so I will be able to figure out what the heck is going on in my life, by being the person causing the problem. I really do have a problem with posting crazy things to mailing lists on the internet, so it would be pretty nice if some completely transparent system that I am in complete control of, would mutate anything rude or harmful I might say to be nice, so that I don't make enemies during psychotic breaks. Deploying a mitm attack on the stupid idiot typing this email is a challenge. There are a few difficult parts: - writing code to mutate packets live without disrupting network sessions - figuring out and implementing a workaround to SSL if the guy uses it - training a language model to mutate his speech in the desired manner This idea seems _so incredibly cool_ to me, that I have actually already started step #3 in a tiny, microscopic, nonexistent manner. https://vast.ai/ is a service that provides brief access to high-end machines for training transformer models to make deepfakes and such.
