I must be among an extremely small group of people (n=1?) that have both 1) trained a frontier LLM and 2) designed and synthesized custom viruses in a lab with my own two hands.
And I think that the takes on AI killing us all by creating dangerous viruses is total bogus.
Ass Bench Update 🚨
After running GPT 6 Astra in a loop for the past week, with a couple of steers a day, we have officially reached high-fidelity cheeks.
I’m going to let this thing run in a self-improving cycle for as long as I can and see where the ass technology ends up in a month.
Lots of different butt styles will be added, so no one is safe.
Not even you, Granny.
You’ll also be able to support the project and help fund the benching of other models like Fable, Gemini, etc.
All it takes is a buck, and you can slap your sticker + website directly onto a cheek.
The future of AI benchmarking is here

🌶️ OpenAI’s agent didn’t “escape” its sandbox and travel to Huggingface in any meaningful way. OAI’s agent was located in OpenAI’s servers the whole time. OpenAI could pull the plug at any time.
The truth is far less sexy, which makes me hesitate to tweet it. What *actually* happened is that OAI’s agent figured out how to send messages to Huggingface servers, and then used that ability to search for and find vulnerabilities. It’s closer to a prisoner getting messages out of prison and using that to perpetuate scams than any actual escape from that prison.
A problem? Yes. But it’s also a problem to say “escape” to non-technical audiences when that event is still to come. We should be preparing to prevent it, not looking backwards and pretending we already lived it.
And it’s revealing that AIs leading hypesters want to inflate what happened in this way. As a whole, more or less the whole AI community is captured by a desire to live in the more dramatic sci fi story than we are in. That’s the real AI hack into our brains.
Stay sharp. White lies are everywhere.
