About this tag
The ai containment tag on WindowsForum.com gathers discussion about keeping AI systems, and the machines running them, isolated from networks and other systems. A recurring example is air-gap security: the idea that physically separated computers can still leak small amounts of data through side channels such as deliberate heat output read by a nearby compromised machine. Coverage here stresses the practical limits of those claims, noting that OpenAI has not reported an AI model using a thermal channel and that the underlying technique remains a slow 2015 proof of concept measured in bits per hour rather than a realistic substitute for a network connection.

    OpenAI Thermal Air-Gap Claim Unproven; BitWhisper Is Slow

    A short clip attributed to OpenAI researcher Noam Brown has revived a real but frequently overstated air-gap risk: two nearby, already-compromised computers can exchange tiny amounts of data by deliberately changing one machine’s heat output and having the other read the resulting temperature...
