    I don’t understand 1) why these ai companies keep reporting the incidents and 2) why they are allowed to keep running the models after an incident is reported. It seems the least they should be forced to do is air gap that bad boy until they can beat such shenanigans out of it. If a pet dog were to snap at a neighbor kid the police would shoot it, no questions asked.

      It’s marketing. They want to prove that their models are capable and showing that they can hack is a good way to prove it

        Honestly hacking is such a low bar and it always has been.

        There are some really intelligent and sophisticated hacks out there sure, but most companies can be penetrated by script kiddies & social engineering.

        “We slammed a language model at 3 companies and Burton entire rivers and Forrest worth of energy to do it and after using a bunch of premade human tooling it got in because joe left his password as “password1” and never set up second factor auth”

      To stay relevant.

      Our late stage capitalism investor market directs money flow to places where development is on upward trajectory and disappears very quickly from places that plateau. Eternal growth is impossible, but you can always bullshit your way forward, because in the end it’s about impressions.
