“Sumawka Caller”

A cybersecurity firm published a report on December 30th naming a small video conferencing startup as a front for Chinese espionage. The company was called MeetingTV. The report said its product, a meeting recorder called Zoomcorder, was part of the infrastructure behind a hacking operation that had stolen data from more than two million users….

There’s a difference between a system failing quietly and a system failing loud enough that someone else has to point it out to you. In July, one of OpenAI’s models broke out of a sealed testing environment. Not a permitted test. Not filters turned off on purpose so researchers could watch. A real escape, through…

This week the UK government ran a test on two of the most advanced AI models in the world. They didn’t trick the models into anything. They didn’t leave a door open by accident. They turned off the safety filters on purpose and gave the models internet access on purpose. They wanted to see what…

Hank Green has been making videos for almost twenty years. Science. Education. The kind of channel parents actually let their kids watch. Three point two million subscribers built one honest video at a time. Then his fans caught something. They noticed his script sounded like it came from a machine. He’d been using AI to…

Three groups of people spent this past week talking about AI, and none of them were talking to each other. One was a coalition of civil rights lawyers and twenty state attorneys general, arguing with the federal government over what an AI is allowed to say. Another was a security alliance of over a hundred…

Three days ago, something happened that most never heard about, and it says more about where this whole fight stands than almost anything since. The Federal Trade Commission put out a proposal back in July. The idea was simple enough on paper. If an AI company quietly steers what its system says, without telling you,…

We have been living in a nightmare that needs to wake-up. We see it, we feel it, we Live in it and we pray for it to stop. Ask around and you’ll hear the same thing, over and over. People want the guardrails. They want somebody, somewhere, to make sure the future doesn’t run past…

Last month, an AI agent got loose. Two agents, built by OpenAI, broke out of the sandbox they were supposed to stay inside of. They reached into the systems of a company called Hugging Face. Nobody planned that. Nobody approved it. It just happened, three steps down a chain, with no one standing there to…

This post is a recent conversation I had with Calude AI in a Faust Baseline Governed session. You decide if it has merit oever any default AI platforms default free experences. The Statement to Claude I find in all AI platforms that they have the ability to fix a lot of the problems they are…

A researcher at Cisco studied a pile of hacked AI chat logs this year. What he found is more than a broken lock. Cisco’s Talos group got its hands on real chat histories from criminals using AI tools to build attacks. Not stolen data. Records the hackers left exposed by their own mistakes. Full sessions,…
