An AI Startup (seemingly called DreamX, although the article isn't completely clear) has left a database exposed containing over 1 million images and videos created using their image generation tools. These include so-called "nudify" images wherein AI can take completely benign, "safe-for-work" photos of real people and return images of what they might look like naked. Very little actionable information here as all the images were AI generated, not the training material.

Quick feedback @nateb

Other countries so use a different date format too so I recommend naming it differently.

Perhaps something like “Dec-5-2025 to Dec-11-2025” or in the “YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-DD” international format. Or some other easy to understand format. Using the week of the year directly can also makes sense. For example: “Data Breach Roundup Week 50, 2025” or something of the sort.

Otherwise this date format will be confusing to folks who don’t know the US uses a different format. Hope it makes sense. Thanks!

When I first read the title, I thought they had left it exposed for 6 months. Then I realised it was only 6 days :sob:

Muricans and their obsessions with non-standard measurement units.

I don’t know if I’m the only one who feels so, but every time I hear the words “start-up” and “AI” in one sentence an internal alarm start ringing in my head.

Agree. Here in Latin America the date format is DD/MM/YYYY, so it’s always confusing for me because I’m not used to speak American measure and date units.

This

In my articles I actually put in my writing date and published date both

DD-MM-YYY/MM-DD-YYYY

But in Eastern Europe here we also actually use DD/MM/YYYY

_Irrelevant suggestion:_

If you put both, there could be a confusion which is the “correct” one, so to speak, like:

`12-3-2025/3-12-2025`

This one is kinda confusing, because some people may think that date it’s from 12 March to 3 December.

I say this is irrelevant because it’s not a big problem anyway. :man_shrugging:

_And because I want to be more active in the forum, but I don’t know what to say tbh lol_

hmm true, i think I add 0 if it’s 1-9 like 03-12-2025/12-03-2025 but maybe it is still confusing yeah

---

## Post 11 by @micdan — 2025-12-13T18:58:04Z

Yeah, because at least here in Latin America we often used zeroes in dates like in the example.

I propose YYYY-MM-DD converted from the Gregorian to the international fixed calendar. /j

Go [big](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quipu) or go home scrub. Or use[words](https://wiki.lspace.org/Discworld_calendar#Years_and_centuries) like an adult.

(But for real, ISO 8601 :folded_hands:)

More on topic: Maybe I’m just not paying attention, but it really feels like people in charge taking “responsibility” by resigning is a dying custom. Really wish there was more accountability. Or maybe just guillotines. I think either would work.

While I agree with your statement in general, let’s be clear that something like **MM/DD/YY** is a specific notation indicating a date, **not** a measurement unit. A date simply identifies when something occurs; it does not express any type of measurement.
