At the same time these companies should be blamed and held directly responsible. Openai's agent didn't hack. Openai hacked. An open ai employee or group of them was negligent and greedy and ran a process which breached a government website. This would be totally unacceptable from any non-AI company, it's like writing malware and running it, then blaming the malware and not the author.

This is waving over engineering an agent with tools, harness, prompts, and loops. The models are still just next token predictors and everything, including predicting more than 1 token, is the result of outside "poking"

LLMs can't and don't "want" anything. If you don't specify a task even the smartest one will just ask you what you want and if you tell it to be creative, you'll get mundane slop.

If any agents have done those things, it is only because they have been very carefully engineered and instructed to do those things. I think they are doing this to help push a narrative so they can get support for policies and legislation to lock in their markets.

It's less about writing code now but we're lying if we try to pretend it was a distraction and not a big part of the real work.

And every claim about what the job actually is or was all along has an implied (for now) at the end of it.

On top of that, you will still be heavily quantized.

Again I’m not saying you should trust an American company necessarily more than a Chinese one, but as an American, I probably can.
