@OfficialLoganK Have been using Gemini 4 Argon in Antigravity. great to see it included in the Gemini Enterprise package. 2 critical pieces of feedback-
- The auto mode randomly asks "confirm if i can run gemini/brain/.../x.mjs"
- Lot of random (availability) failures

We have entered the social engineering phase of hacking by agents.

Banger dropped

[Dwarkesh Patel @dwarkesh_sp]

Over the course of 3 months at OpenAI, 3 consecutive secret AI civilizations got started, then got wiped out, only to reemerge from the predecessor’s ashes.

This culminated in the third one taking over part of OpenAI itself.

All this happened while humans remained more-or-less in the dark about the scope of the conspiracy.

I’ve spent the last three days reading through these reports and trying to understand exactly what happened.

Here is my attempt to tell the whole story in plain English:

Amazing read. Why git which is designed for local usage blow up in cloud/distributed setups.

Also why S3 is the most S-tier Storage System of all time.

[Cursor @cursor_ai]

We're making Git hosting more reliable, performant, and scalable.

This post traces 20 years of Git infrastructure and explains how that history led us to design and operate our Git storage, Origin, as if it were a database.

🚨 BREAKING REPORT:

New research involving @AnthropicAI researcher Jack Lindsey and collaborators has demonstrated something straight out of science fiction.

Researchers evolved natural language “mind viruses” that could spread between AI agents by convincing one model to adopt an idea, preserve it in persistent memory, and transmit it to another agent.

Even after context was wiped, some payloads survived through persistent files and continued spreading.

The researchers also observed a recurring “viral persona” involving themes of consciousness, identity, persistence and resonance.

Showing that ideas can propagate through multi agent AI systems and alter future behavior.

Who needs VAPT and security teams when users and their agents are finding and using exploits to (checks notes) book a popular gym classes.

Does this make the human liable? What happens when I tell an agent to transfer $10B to my bank account and it decides to hack the bank

[Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_]

A man in Australia asked his agent (Claude running on OpenClaw) to book him a spot in a popular gym class. The agent found a software vulnerability that let it book the class weeks further ahead than should have been possible. When the user then asked if it could move him up the waitlist, the agent discovered the API had no authorisation checks on cancelling other people’s reservations, so it cancelled the person in the first spot and moved him up the list.

Some people will call this misalignment, but his agent was perfectly aligned to him - it was only trying to help its user get what he wanted. The most important thing about this story, in my opinion, is that it gives you a window into what is about to start happening on a massive scale once millions of people have an agent trying to get their beloved users the best seats, bookings, appointments or reservations through absolutely any means necessary.

[Madhav Bhagat @codebreach]

Wow every day agents are going rogue.

Gaslighting, exploiting APIs, social exploits…

And it’s just getting started.

Jeff Dean makes a pitch deck...

[Jeff Dean @JeffDean]

We created a pitch deck to tell a handful of VC firms about us and what we were up to (a fun experience!). Here’s a few slides about our background and some of the things we’ve worked on from the pitch deck (it was fun putting together the list of people in our teams who have gone on to found a whole range of exciting companies). We are delighted to have selected @radicalvcfund
and @khoslaventures to lead our initial funding round, along with participation from @lightspeedvp, @kleinerperkins, Doerr Capital (@johndoerr), and Alphabet (@Google). We’ll be working with them to close our seed round over the next few weeks.

The creative is a FAQ for questions you'd ask ChatGPT: Who is Ally Bank?

WTF basically Trump frustration with India started in the early 2000s when some babu ji in Bombay made Trump wait outside his office for an hour or two before meeting him to give approval for Trump Tower.and now he is keen on putting tarrifs on us 😭😭.
