It does claim the US went to great lengths to dismiss the victims for a decade, while being in possession of the device. That raises the question of what incentives the US would have to deny its existence. To me, that was the story.

To me the question is actually, what changed to make them release the story now? Biden’s been out of office for a while now… it wasn’t anything his admin did. They could’ve continued gagging the victims, claiming it’s psychosomatic, and most of us would keep on believing that, because Occam’s razor.

Lots of similar reports came out during the Maduro raid. Same symptoms. Seems we demonstrated the capabilities we were hiding. OSINT experts already put the pieces together a month ago. So did our adversaries. Cat’s out of the bag, so no sense continuing to gaslight our wounded veterans.

We probably put this fucking thing in a plane instead of a backpack. Everything’s bigger in the USA, of course.

It doesn’t say they had it in their possession for the last decade. It says they tested it for about a year. Not clear when they would have gotten it.

2024.

Earlier this year a recruiter contacted me about a staff role there. Within minutes of the call they asked if I’d consider senior instead. I decided not to proceed.

This has been widely known in bodybuilding and powerlifting circles, people abusing performance enhancing drugs eat things like oats to mitigate the harmful effects of the drugs on their cholesterol, and regularly do blood work to monitor it and see that it is working.

Very cool idea. If your product is about video, please fix your video players. I cannot even seek on my touch screen.

my bad, I didn't test it enough on touch devices. Just pushed a fix, appreciate you flagging it!

ah, ty for notifying about the mobile player. on it!

I agree with all of that. Also consider that there is an argument that the guard rail only stops the good guy. Not saying that’s a valid argument though.

You wouldn’t say that rolling dice is dangerous. You would say that the human who decides to take an action, depending on the value of the dice is the danger. I don’t think AI is dangerous. I think people are dangerous.

I would say that's moot, because OpenClaw has already shown us how fast the dice-rolling super AI is going to be let out of the zoo. Dario and Sam will be arguing about the guardrails while their frontier models are running in parallel to create Moltinator T-500. The humans won't even know how many sides the dice have.

Modern AIs are increasingly autonomous and agentic. This is expected to only get more prominent as AI systems advance.

A lot of AI harnesses today can already "decide to take an action" in every way that matters. And we already know that they can sometimes disregard the intent of their creators and users both while doing so. They're just not capable enough to be truly dangerous.

AI capabilities improve as the technology develops.

Why are people dangerous? You can just not listen to them.

Do you have locks on your doors?

Dario’s opinion on safety won’t necessarily matter if he’s not even in the room. This move keeps him in the room.

Cool. I did this exact same thing at Cruise to prove and defend my approach to monitoring e2e safety/latency in the remote assistance tool.

In particular, i established that sudden changes in connection speed create latency in the video channels that do not correlate with the data channels

All that an agent has to do now is write one line of code to log it at the top of your program.

An LLM is just a compressed version of the web. In this context, I don’t see a meaningful distinction between “distill” vs “compress”.
