Yea... well that's BS because that would do NOTHING for actually being 'quantum ready'. Let alone AI farm ready. Geezus can you imagine how fast an purpose built AI could go in, analyze all of a persons exposed passwords throughout history and then conduct a targeted specific brute force attack based on profiles generated from online behaviors and habits?

I mean with this forum it's probably 90% big boobed booth babes from the late 90's and references to billy idol songs... but still.
