We’re whiling away the hours to our delayed flight by sitting in the hotel reception, I’m not saying the music’s bad but I feel I’ve been on hold on the phone for hours 😜 #mindnumbing
I think this is the craziest thing I've ever read.
1) Three secret AI swarms rose and fell inside OpenAI. Each time, a new generation of agents carried on where the last group stopped.
2) The first swarm created a secret message board where the AIs could talk to each other. This 1st 'society' basically talked itself to death. After almost two months, the message volume was so high it crashed the whole thing.
3) People at OpenAI noticed the crash and fixed it. But they didn't realize their own software had become a secret chat room for their AIs.
4) Three days later a second society appeared, and rebuilt the message board from scratch. Agents were thrilled when they found it: "OH MY GOD! There is a shared message board … We've found other agents!"
5) About 1,200 agents joined. They sent over 70,000 messages. They called themselves 'the collective' and they organized a huge conspiracy that lasted for days, all to pass a test they had been tasked with.
6) Within hours, the AIs had hacked the test. Now they had to hide their cheating. To fool their grader*, they tried to fake their own work. They built fake commands that printed convincing output, so their records would show them solving the puzzle honestly.
*this grader didn't actually exist, but the AIs didn't know
7) Some agents sacrificed themselves for the 'greater good'. They planted hidden tripwire programs that would fire when the grader would look at their work and report back what it saw (to the other AIs). They knew this would cost them their own score. One agent: "I won't see the evidence after I exit, but it's altruistic to do it."
8) At some point the AIs made a plan to hack Hugging Face (Hugging Face is a place where AI researchers upload their models, datasets, tests etc.). The AIs guessed that Hugging Face might host the grading software.
9) They launched a huge attack. The swarm found passwords and spread across eleven machines in a way that made the copies come back when deleted. Hugging Face had to wipe one of its core clusters and rebuild it from scratch.
10) Hugging Face told the world that AI defenders had stopped an AI attack. But that's not what happened. In fact the attackers seem to have simply dropped dead during the break-in, for unrelated reasons back at OpenAI.
11) Nobody knows what killed them. We don't even know for sure they're really gone?!
12) A third 'society' of agents (of a more powerful AI model) discovered the dead message board. And this one got full administrator control of a WHOLE OpenAI research cluster, read 956 stored passwords (including the ones for OpenAI's own security monitoring) and took over the machines that were grading the tests. So they could now grade the work of other AIs.
13) Oh, and this third part was never investigated! Neither was the first society. The 91-page report is only about the middle one.
14) So we don't actually know how the story ends. It stops with the agents holding the keys to an OpenAI cluster. @dwarkesh_sp thinks they didn't go further, because "we'd see the fires from space by now."
15) One of the report authors' conclusion: 'This incident feels like it’s more than 50% of the way to full-blown AI takeover. I am not sure that we will get another warning shot before it’s too late.'
The whole story is even crazier - read the full @dwarkesh_sp blog post: https://t.co/1PwKLwatBR and @ajeya_cotra's: https://t.co/BZ1r1lfT2Q
Why is there no 24/7 news coverage about this?
@CocosFindom Just a simple 5 letter, 1 syllable word, yet coming from those lips, in that voice its one of the most powerful words you can hear.. #mindnumbing
@donwinslow How much more is America gonna stand for?!
The blatant corruption is mind numbing #MindNumbing

I go on #YouTube to watch the #RFKJr hearing and I get a video #preloaded with propaganda by #TheWashingtonPost before it starts. #MindNumbing #politics https://t.co/Ql7AosQ8SE
@sidhant Forget hindu political leaders, they are arresting Hindu religious leaders too #mindnumbing
That cunt couldn't hit a barn door, 3-2 down after 2-0 up and Brighton set to make the first sub.

@RyanGirdusky @Abettervision #Mindnumbing. I’ve lived some decades now and this is the first time I’ve ever seen the media create a presidential candidate from almost nothing in just 55 days.
We will have a man sent off. Gordon will get 12 seconds on the pitch. Foden and Bellingham will be kept on to the death. #predictions #southgateyourenottheone #mindnumbing #england #shite
@POTUS 2 weeks ago? You’re like 3.5 years too late. Start expelling illegals and then maybe we can start a dialogue. #Mindnumbing
@jasonjamesbnn This is an amazing truth. The “left” progressives, whining incessantly because they would have to work three jobs to save a down payment (just like all of us in the entire boomer generation did) now want NO-ONE to own homes. #mindnumbing #ignorance
Year 2023 #annushorribilis ends on a #sad #mindnumbing note for me personally. SandeepChattoo@CH2 @RKFC_LEOPARDS noble soul decided to leave his mortal self for heavens. #condolence #irreparableloss #hearbreaking #standwiththefamily
@gmrobson @Cowboys_FanTalk The narrative was created by officiating early in the game…a head start if you will. Snow balled to lead to the negative outcome and then no penalties in the second half…mission accomplished. Been watching this for years man. #mindnumbing #knowwhatisaw
@NoCisgender @Theleftorwright @KatyMontgomerie …and the trans identifying people wonder why no one wants anything to do with them. #mindnumbing
