    The Iranian strikes didn’t involve autonomous weapons systems. The “AI” component was used for target selection. The actual aiming and firing of the weapon was performed by humans.…

    I would read the divergence as mostly evidence that Mythos et al, had offensive cyber capabilities as part of their RL training. I.e. they’re models specifically trained to be good…

    This is where harness, and the fact that a machine can be endlessly prompted to try again comes in. Even if an LLM starts by pursuing things that follow human bias, continuous fail…

    I think the point is that an “open source project” is more than just the code and license, it’s also the community that builds and maintains it. A fast rewrite of Bun in Rust has e…
