From what I understand Amazon's lawyer was telling the CEO that it's better to report a vulnerability of a potential cyber weapon (jailbreak) to protect Amazon from liability.
And then US chamber of commerce protected itself from liability as well to take export control law seriously after Antropic's CEO categorized Mythos without the cyber query filter as potential cyber weapon.
The problem here is that there's no real technical way to protect against the queries, just making them more expensive to create, as the models are getting smarter.
Also as the main jailbreak ,,technique'' is splitting the task into subtasks, and the main moat of Mythos is that it can solve more complex tasks, I also wouldn't categorize this jailbreak as serious.
They did upload the wrong model but as of the time of writing they have not fixed it. Right now, 12 hours after they took the old one down, there is simply no model present in their huggingface repo.
It makes sense, he stopped contributing to Tesla significantly long time ago (he redirected the NVIDIA GPUs that were supposed to go for Tesla self driving to X.ai).
It's not sabotaging it by using a worse model but by changing your prompt in your background, which means it silently destroys your code.
Also I asked questions about whether it's safe for me for example to work on just compilers or just inference kernel optimizations and it refused to answer me.
If I can't even ask what I can do safely without my code being destroyed, I just can't trust it not to sabotage my work ever.
Of course they are afraid of it, haven't you seen Dario being angry of Chinese companies paying for Claude access (tokens = test cases) and training their own model from those?
I'm well aware of situations of potentially upending changes where the rich and powerful stand to gain, and the little guy's worries are ignored.
This, however, is clearly a potentially upending change where also lots of the rich and powerful – including those who control the very technology driving the change – have everything to lose. I'm surprised, to say it mildly, that nothing seems to be happening. Does Dario really believe that a strict ToS and stern words will keep his IP protected without appealing to the legal system? (I guess that is par for the course for the people who "solve" world problems with bunkers and armed guards…)
Services like Cloudflare and Twilio have so many POPs globally that one or more always have an outage going on. Then there's the question of whether it's a major outage or a minor outage. Even though major status page providers like Atlassian and Incident.io have public status APIs (Cloudflare uses Atlassian), it takes more than just parsing them to determine what is "down" and at what granularity.
I run an outage detection service - and some of these issues, like parsing hundreds of - sometimes undocumented - status APIs, make for an interesting engineering problem.
With these guys you get into a weird world of "is it them, us, or upstream of both of us" all the time. I had been using Twilio's telco partner maintenance notifications as a way of figuring out if someone like Orange was responsible for a bunch of French end points independent of Twilio had network degradation.
I don’t understand one part of the licensing here: if it was just a license, can’t they relicense the software and hardware of LPU3 to AMD? Or hire new software and hardware people?
The new designs were their main asset besides the amazing talent that went to NVIDIA, not the remaining DCs.
