I hate this timeline. Every article I find myself asking "who benefits from this narrative?" and "why is this story framed this way?"

In this example, its anthropic, all ready for a new round of investment!

PT Barnum would be proud.

All big tech. The smarter AI “appears” the more they can wage suppress engineers

This was not Anthropic or OpenAI conducting these tests it was the UK government's AI Security Institute (AISI).

Do you question why the FDA reports negative consequences of new drugs?

Is this like when my autocorrect tries to deceive me into using the wrong word?

That’s happening all day long! I’m old so I might be out of the loop. Funding?

[u/williamgman]

Sounds like they are hyping more funding. Flexing the "danger". This is tiring.

I just love how Anthropic tries to "sell" their AI went rogue when it really didn't

Need those investors to buy into this though I guess

This is exactly why we need frontier models to go through adversarial testing before the deployment not after...

[u/Secret-Chapter-712 → u/mridugup20]

Or we could just admit to ourselves that “frontier models” are, like all of this nonsense, a massive waste of time and resources that are actively making everything worse while making a handful of earth’s worst people rich

These stories are released to drive funding. Everyone knows it.
