Brett Winton(@wintonARK):space supercompute will be better hardened against AI botnet infections than terrestrial, yea or nay? Argument for: single infiltration vector (vs a datacenter on the ground which has a much broader penetration surface), modular/simpler/more easily resettable; remediation path is you let the infected sat incinerate. Argument against: if they get control of root comms, lack of physical access means you could lose the entire cluster, homogeneity means penetration breadth is more likely.
