Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Cybersecurity insurance was a topic last term at the tech/law group on campus, see also Josephine Wolff https://direct.mit.edu/books/oa-monograph/5373/Cyberinsurance-PolicyRethinking-Risk-in-an-Age-of

This month, I found out my business insurance split out cybersec from the general policy a couple years ago and never told me, so I had to pay a $300 upcharge for it for a new contract that needed it specifically. Also a new $7 terrorism fee.

Probably you can s/cyber/AI/g and guess where things are heading.
