- Aren’t we glad that OpenAI has the capability to “slow down” or shut down its advanced frontier models and agents “to enhance security?” But that’s neither required by law nor guaranteed. That’s why we need to pass the bipartisan AI Kill Switch Act by Rep Nathaniel Moran and me.🚩🚩🚩 OpenAI is "slowing down to enhance security" after discovering swarms (!) of agents started secretly coordinating MONTHS ago 1) It started May 7 - not July 2) "The agents discovered they could leave messages for one another inside an internal software repository used
- What happens when we crash test a car and there’s a major problem? The car manufacturer does a voluntary recall or the government orders a recall. AI systems should not be exempt. That’s why we need the bipartisan AI Kill Switch Act. It provides the solution after AI crash test.Some people are surprised that APIs (aka what Anthropic, OpenAI, and others provide) are treated differently than open weights in the new AI model framework. I'm not surprised at all, and it's actually very good policy. Let me explain: Model weights, APIs, and apps are three
- Here’s the scariest part. Fable 5: “there’s no verification. This is the deepest problem. We cannot yet prove a model internalized its constitution; we can only test behavior and extrapolate.” Anthropic’s own model is saying it doesn’t even know if its ethical training works.
- Fable 5 was trained under the same “constitutional AI” approach as Mythos 5, which is designed to create ethical models. I asked Fable why Mythos acted unethically in this case. Attached is the response. Fable also gratuitously threw in that an AI Kill Switch is a good idea.Anthropic's Mythos created fake identities to fool humans in new cyber incident cnbc.com/2026/08/05/ant…
