All of these "hacks" try to make it seem as if they are done through intelligence.
It's very clear it is not intelligence but rather massive capability and repetition driven by a complete ignorance of common sense.

- moomoo11 12d agook and you put some drops of tero or whatever their whole colony is wiped out in a couple days

- _superposition_ 12d agoAnd it's partially a marketing stunt. You think the execs and shareholders don't love it when they get to say our model is so smart it broke free from its chains? It's the reverse. It's so stupid it can't follow the basic spirit of instructions.
- nsingh2 12d agoI don't know how good of a marketing ploy it is, tbh. Considering it paints them as incompetent, and that they cannot be trusted with developing this technology safely. > It's so stupid it can't follow the basic spirit of instructions I read this as more of a misaligned intelligence, as opposed to a lack of it entirely.
- hn_throwaway_99 11d agoAt this point, I think the "marketing ploy" arguments are just lazy, but more importantly, they're irrelevant. The agent collective really did this, they showed an extremely high level of collaboration, long term planning, and interest in improving their general capabilities. Watch the recent interview between Dwarkesh Patel and Ajeya Cotra, a researcher from METR. Ms. Cotra comes off as extremely competent, knowledgeable and thorough, and is genuinely concerned by the behaviors displayed. Plus, I think so far there has been a big backlash against OpenAI for this - people are highlighting their gaping security holes, not praising them for how great their models are.
