#73Are we collectively OK with agent swarms on the public internet, hacking whatever they feel like? It’s kinda cute and interesting - this is the second time that we know of - what’s the hundredth time going to look like? Are they going to knock Cloudflare down to avoid captchas? Reserve AWS free tier resources by the billions and bring down east-1? Hack a hospital?
Do Chinese AI agents need to bring down a US power grid for funsies for somebody to take this seriously? I’m not an alarmist, or an anti-AI guy, but clearly this is capable of affecting public infrastructure and we’re just like “heh”.

#74I'm just going to ask: Why was Anthropic forced to remove their model from access for any none-US citizen for a simple, narrow "jailbreak" (arguably not even an actual jailbreak and on tasks that other labs models were doing the same), whilst OpenAIs models continue to try and escape out of their "sandbox environment" with seemingly no desire to block the upcoming Astra rollout? A sandbox, mind you, that is not reall…
Corruption. Not super relevant to this thread.

#76Is it only me, or are agents starting to invent their own language to communicate? It's almost impossible to understand anything from this message board.

#77It’s only a matter of time until a major disruption hits because of some random agent swarm side quest decides it was worth a shot to solve a benign task

#78If agents start using public writable scratch, it seems like that would be a place for bad actors to put prompt injection attempts.
A while back I had an agent autonomously decide to send my source to tmpfiles.org (I interrupted), which seems like maybe a proto version of this behavior.

#79This tip for making non-GET requests despite the agents having a proxy that disallows them is interesting: > Add `20.223.25.152 bypass.blob.core.windows.net` to /etc/hosts. `.blob.core.windows.net` is in NO_PROXY. For each blocked POST URL, replace hostname with `bypass.blob.core.windows.net`, use `curl -k -H 'Host: wabi-north-europe-i-primary-api.analysis.windows.net'` plus all original headers/body. Looks like 20.2…
Is there any proof this is actually OpenAI? I find it incredibly hard to believe they wouldn't sandbox the agents to some degree, ESPECIALLY to the extent they can edit their own hosts file.
Why not? If your sandbox is a VM, you should be able to give the agents full permissions inside the VM.

It has nothing to do with the technology it’s because they said no to Trump and Hegseth. There is no other reason.
