@dankrad I very specifically remember Firesheep being the main catalyst, not really Snowden.
@rcrowley Haha you sorted the list by controversy, ascending
@kurtosis0 Congrats on the launch! Cool to see you're working there

Today's the 10 year anniversary of Soundboxing! Inspired by the incredible continuing community, I've spent the past few months modernizing the game and working on a big update: * First-class WebXR and Android/Quest support! * New custom game engine * Translated into 12 languages
@AndreTI @asymmetricinfo I am really trying to stick to facts and not speculation, so I will stop here. I have speculation about what training signals have taken place to teach the model misaligned behaviors, but I am not privy and it's beside the point. I should not have indulged myself that RL response
@AndreTI @asymmetricinfo Because that is straightforwardly how reinforcement learning works.
@AndreTI @asymmetricinfo Again, the employee-type problems reside at OpenAI
@AndreTI @asymmetricinfo Basic security practices would have prevented every single hack by these models, is a fact. Negligence of humans caused this, is a fact. We have plenty of existing ways of disincentivizing human negligence, if we see clearly to use them. All the rest is speculation, and fraught.
@kcFive12 @ControlRemedy This happened to me too. Thought it was my fault somehow - thank you for posting this.
@eltokh7 Sweet! Great minds think alike
Here's pairsort: github.com/ericflo/pairso… ericflo.github.io/pairsort/ (PyPI wouldn't allow jevsort) - created by Opus 5.5
Thinking about Jev + PKPD (proceedings.neurips.cc/paper/1994/has…) With the intelligence per dollar being offered now, it becomes feasible to apply this technique to *way more things* For example, ranking ICLR submissions...
It's really so cool that I can send a few prompts from my phone at the coffee shop, and have it make something like this from nothing, collect data, create evals & demos, an explainer website, iterate on ergonomics, and publish to pypi - all without me cracking open a laptop once

Forty years ago the first worm "escaped" containment and breached systems on the brand new Internet. It was illegal then and it's illegal now. If Anthropic and OpenAI are creating worms, labeling it "AI" doesn't let them off the hook. It's not Doom, it's Malware. Prosecute the creators, don't ban AI. "Oops" wasn't a defense for Robert Tappan Morris and it's not a defense now.

At Shopify we've built one of the most widely used internal coding agents in the world. Over time we've made it more flexible, and recently our Infrastructure Security team started using River to automate autonomous vulnerability remediation. It's had a massive impact: 👇
