I'm very confident that it was staged and coordinated. This propaganda started because they cannot evolve their models further. See Fable and Sol, they are lame. They seem incredible at first but the more you use you can see the trickery. It is a matter of time for someone to prove they are marginally better only because they inject more information to the harness at server side.

I’m also into this conspiracy theory: ai created bug, ai hacked it, ai fixed it.
just like ai will create amazing tests suits for the broken code it writes, if one isn't carefully watching...

EDIT: of course it probably helps to have an up front tdd test suite, but often isn't the case.

Live overflow released the video today about it. It is very compelling but I guess there are holes on their hypothesis as well.

The summary is that an instance was running on certain benchmarks without any limits or supervision and the AI decided to cheat by exploiting a silly series of vunlns.

The public narrative around conspiracy theories is baffling for sure: what rational basis is there for assuming them wrong? Often none.

Incentive and ability are what should be looked at. There, things get far more interesting: what is the current state of AI employed by the US intelligence agencies and what do they use it for?

Having the public convinced, their "superiors" would only do everything in their best interest, even without anybody knowing for sure, is Huxley's Brave New World in real life.

Have you seen any of the emails Mr alt-tab-man sent regarding his enterprises? That guy is worse than fetid trash
that's some real anti-truth you've got going on there. because we shouldn't assume that others are acting in our best interest, that any random assertion that there is collusion against us should be by default accepted as the truth.

shouldn't any reasonable person when presented with a line of thought that has no substantiation at all conclude that they just can't reasonably be expected to support or reject the theory?

? That's total nonsense.

Positions of power attract people who want to use that power for their own gain. They abuse it regularly, whether it's politics, enterprises or even charity.

To assume, that somehow wouldn't happen when you don't look is beyond absurd. Of course it does.

So I pointed explicitly at US intelligence agencies, because there corruption is rampant and oversight virtually non-existent, respectively itself involved in the corruption.

What you suppose there is a grotesque "don't ask don't tell"-complicity.

In reality, trust has to be earned and that deservingness has to be verified.

Everything in this space is manufactured, the plebs is fed very deliberate information for manipulation. I don't think there is a debate about it. All the PR stuff is marketing.
