It would be a shame if this video was shared far and wide.

Do you really want these charlatans running the country?!

Would you be interested if JetBrains releases a totally local AI agent, working 100% on your laptop, using our code insight engine and deeply integrated into the IDE?

Yes, it will be probably 1 month behind the very recent frontier models, but no token blood bath anymore

WDYT?

Anyone else seeing Sonnet 4.6 insist on using 'go' instead of 'cargo' in their Rust projects? @AnthropicAI

We’re recruiting for a Data Engineer to join our Research team at Liverpool FC. In my (perhaps biased) view, it’s a great opportunity to join an excellent team, work at the forefront of sports analytics, and have a tangible impact. https://t.co/JlFxXCUIsS

@juliendubois I like this, but I think best practice #16 is too strict & may conflict with instructions in other Skills.

[El Pid @pidster]

@juliendubois Yes, very much understand. I'm just wary of instructions that some models can take too literally. Instead of the negative/restrictive : "Do NOT ... etc" I'd recommend a firm positive instruction: "The user must review these changes before they are committed to git", (or similar).

Tip for the Google Gemini team: if you want to help Google truly get ahead in the AI era, use your hefty influence to get it so setting up API access to your own calendar doesn't involve THESE steps

Devious new attack class defined by @wunderwuzzi23: "Cross-Agent Privilege Escalation"

If someone has both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot on their machine you can prompt inject one and have it edit the config for the other in order to further escalate your attack's privileges!

The late Derek Fowlds was born on this day in 1937, which gives me a chance to post this absolute banger.

God bless Derek!

LLMs love XML — the most instructive of configuration languages. Leaked AI-startup system prompts all use it, as does The Universal Jailbreak from @hiddenlayersec https://t.co/8KPytxMbhf

[El Pid @pidster]

@sublimino I 🙇‍♂️and yes 🍻

[El Pid @pidster]

I updated https://t.co/KH5LcVaCJn to use XML tags in the persona instructions after a *quite interesting* conversation about reinforcing instructions to LLMs with @sublimino last week
