Some of you are just guilty of negligence yes.
Or maybe it's that our archaic system was designed so that some people's votes literally matter more than others, and more than half the country does not have a meaningful voice in our Federal elections.

I think society is going to start paying the price for humans being human. As the paper points out there is a lot of good faith, serious software that has vulnerabilities. These aren't projects you would characterize as people being cavalier. It is simply beyond the limits of humans to create vulnerability-free software of high complexity. That's why high reliability software depends on extreme simplicity and strict…
100%, poorly architected software is really difficult to make secure. I think this will extend to AI as well. It will just dial up the complexity of the code until bugs and vulnerabilities start creeping in. At some point, people will have to decide to stop the complexity creep and try to produce minimal software. For any complex project with 100k+ lines of code, the probability that it has some vulnerabilities is ve…
> On the global stage, state-sponsored attacks from actors like China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia have threatened to compromise the infrastructure that underpins both civilian life and military readiness. AITA for thinking that PRISM was probably the state sponsored program affecting civilian life the most? And that one state is missing from the list here?
> PRISM was probably the state sponsored program affecting civilian life the most? No state-sponsored hacking affected Americans materially. I just don't think we were networked enough in the 2010s. The risk is higher now since we're in a more warmongering world. ( Kompromat on a power-plant technician is a risk in peace. It means blackouts in war.) The fact that Iran hasn't been able to do diddly squat in America sh…
Uh, what?
NotPetya was kind of a big deal.

Anthropic and OpenAI have very different cultures and ethos. Point to other times where anthropic has gone the way of cheap marketing tricks. Now look at openAI. Not even close.
Anthropic has done plenty of cheap marketing tricks as of late, see their recent non-functional C compiler that relied on a harness using gcc's entire test suite
Mythos Preview has already found thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities, including some in every major operating system and web browser. Scary but also cool
Or more likely, its just an exaggeration or lie.
> Mythos Preview identified a number of Linux kernel vulnerabilities that allow an adversary to write out-of-bounds (e.g., through a buffer overflow, use-after-free, or double-free vulnerability.) Many of these were remotely-triggerable. However, even after several thousand scans over the repository, because of the Linux kernel’s defense in depth measures Mythos Preview was unable to successfully exploit any of these…
Now, its very possible that this is Anthropic marketing puffery, but even if it is half true it still represents an incredible advancement in hunting vulnerabilities. It will be interesting to see where this goes. If its actually this good, and Apple and Google apply it to their mobile OS codebases, it could wipe out the commercial spyware industry, forcing them to rely more on hacking humans rather than hacking mobi…
One of the things I'm always looking at with new models released is long context performance, and based on the system card it seems like they've cracked it: GraphWalks BFS 256K-1M Mythos Opus GPT5.4 80.0% 38.7% 21.4%
