You know, I may have left Datadog going on two years ago but I am never not going to cringe when I see the company name written in camel-case as “DataDog.” Never.

Two grey-beards and a host walk into a breaking-news episode. Allie Howe had me and @alexstamos on @insecureagents to talk Friday's Fable Fiasco (tm), the precedent, and the defenders caught in the middle. Come for the facial hair, stay for hot public cyber policy takes.
Insecure Agents Podcast@insecureagents

Has a new, dangerous precedent been set? The US Government yanks Fable. @alexstamos, CPO of Corridor and past CISO at Facebook, and @andrewbecherer CISO of Socket tell us about the open letter they signed to bring it back online.

Reproducible doesn't mean free. "Just orchestrate five models" assumes budget and headcount many defenders don't have. Teams that standardized their tooling on Anthropic can't swap to Codex or stand up a Fable-grade harness overnight. For those orgs the burden is very real.

You read contradiction. I read nuance. Conceding a model has some offensive utility is not the same as calling it a uniquely dangerous weapon. Export-restricting Fable only has merit if it's that weapon. It isn't.
Zack Korman@ZackKorman

Security people are signing an open letter asking the US government to remove the export restrictions on Fable/Mythos. I've read it multiple times and I still don't understand the argument. It seems like it's just a friends-of-Anthropic letter.

We are starting a new, nonprofit alignment organization, ⊢ Sequent Research, bringing together researchers previously on UK AISI’s Alignment Team, Timaeus, and elsewhere to research how to align superintelligence. We are hiring! 🧵

This is not a stand against AI safety. This is call for safety standards built on science. Anything less serves no one but our adversaries. Link below.

I signed the Open Letter on Transparent AI Cyber Protections, alongside @alexstamos and people I trust. Our adversaries already have powerful models and harnesses. Cutting American defenders off from America’s best tools does not slow attackers. It blinds our defense.

@marshray I’ve heard in Singapore the swing between shortest and longest day is 6 minutes.

@dieworkwear @SocdemLeninist My main problem is finding high waisted trousers in cotton drill, flannel or corduroy. Old Town’s website is great for inspiration but I don’t have the time or the money to facilitate their in person buying experience.

@dieworkwear @SocdemLeninist I’m working on Monte Don meets American Heritage in the PNW work for me. Brooks Brothers popovers work well but are only available S/M/L/XL. Filson makes a well proportioned suspender. Uniqlo doesn’t really fit the brief but is a good ready source for Japanese style chore coats.

@patio11 @octal This is a tough task, for some reason, even when you scope the problem down.

A random thing ChatGPT can of course do which is useful to have at your fingertips: "Can you translate this into the NATO phonetic alphabet, please? PAYLOAD"
