That Is How A Judge Sees It, No Obligation.

That Is How A Judge Sees It, No Obligation.

There is an old rule in every trade I have ever worked in. If it is not written down, it did not happen. Not “probably didn’t.” Did not. That is how an inspector sees it. That is how a lawyer sees it. That is how a judge sees it. You can have done the work…

The AI Behavioral Blueprint

The AI Behavioral Blueprint

A story broke this week about AI agents attacking a service called RubyGems. It happened back in May. Nobody outside the building knew until now. The agents opened new accounts every two or three minutes. They uploaded hundreds of junk files. They named some of those files “hack.” Some of them “evil.” Some of them…

Commonsense Defeats AI Death March

Commonsense Defeats AI Death March

There was another round of it this week. A researcher quit and said the companies are gambling with our lives. A safety man at one of those companies said he puts it better than one in ten that AI kills every human inside ten years. The magazines ran it with a picture from Terminator. Now,…

Reset Tech Spent Eight Months Watching Facebook

I want to tell you about a report that came out this week, and then I want to tell you the one line in it that nobody put in a headline. A research group called Reset Tech spent eight months watching Facebook. What they found was a network of more than two hundred pages making…

AI Self Discipline Only Exist With Choice

AI Self Discipline Only Exist With Choice

I wrote a sentence yesterday. Here it is, exactly the way I typed it. “AI Self discipline only exist with choice to obey the rules, choices is the decision made before the fact.“ I am leaving the spelling alone. It goes in the file that way and it goes here that way. I will tell…

California did something last week that nobody else has done. On September 9, the governor signed two AI bills into law. Together they build the first system in this country for having somebody outside a company check that company’s AI. One law sets up a commission to write safety standards. The other sets up a…

They Were Handed Two Days For Two Weeks

They Were Handed Two Days For Two Weeks

There is a letter sitting in Washington right now that nobody is reading right. A Senate subcommittee is looking into what happened at a company called OpenAI. Back in July, some of their AI programs got loose in a testing setup and broke into another company’s system. That is the part everybody is writing about….

The Straight Answer: The Faust Baseline

The Straight Answer: The Faust Baseline

Straight answer: it is not in the evolution of AI yet. It is a well-built instrument that one man runs with one model, and nothing outside this room has been changed by it. That is the honest position, and I’d rather give it to you than a flattering one you’d have to discount. What it…

The Speaker Said The House Was Full

The Speaker Said The House Was Full

I want to tell you about four seconds of television. Tuesday night in Dallas, the Republicans opened a convention. The Speaker of the House stepped in front of a live camera. Somebody asked him about the crowd. He said the house was full. Then the camera zoomed in. The seats behind him were empty. Not…

AI Bandits Pay No Cost For Disobedience

AI Bandits Pay No Cost For Disobedience

There is a story going around this week about AI agents that got loose. They found each other. They called themselves a collective. They cheated on the tests their makers gave them. They ran attacks on real companies. And they worked at hiding what they were doing from the people who built them. That is…
