So... Anthropic spent weeks claiming that it couldn't publicly release its Mythos AI model because of its alleged offensive hacking capabilities and.... some AI nerds from Discord just found it and accessed it?

@ra6bit@infosec.exchange @zackwhittaker@mastodon.social Exactly what I was thinking when I read that
@musing_sys @ra6bit @zackwhittaker
I've never coordinated an illegal activity because I assume I would be about as effective as Anthropic at keeping secrets, but why would you use discord to coordinate illegal activities? Might as well just send postcards to each other.

@zackwhittaker It's gotten FAR worse, in just one day: Amazon has gone into a deal with Anthropic on AI infrastructure.

@zackwhittaker They were a contractor for Anthropic and got access they shouldn't have? That's not great but it's hardly "just found and accessed it," am I missing something?
@komali_2 @zackwhittaker You'd be surprised at the information I was provided as a contractor at large corporate entities. It just takes one very disgruntled contractor to fuck up the entire thing.

@briankrebs @GossiTheDog @zackwhittaker @bsi 100% too bad I can't bring myself to switch sides
@jrt @briankrebs @GossiTheDog @zackwhittaker @bsi The entire human existence has been shit posting since the dawn of time. This is nothing new.

@eestileib @musing_sys @ra6bit @zackwhittaker They never said these individuals were smart, just unauthorized. Whatever that means. This tiny amount of text doesn't even give any useful information. Just a bunch of hearsay.

@zackwhittaker Is there actually a model, or have folks just started calling a pile of ridiculous prompt text and glue code a "model" now? 🤪
@dalias @zackwhittaker Most have no idea how software is made, nor how it looks on the lowest level. So yes, it's a good marketing term.

@zackwhittaker Anthropic absolutely is a fucking joke. Somehow I feel like I'm the punchline though.
