Would you like more happy kitten pictures to enjoy while petting a cat?

“The box gives you telekinesis!” “No, that’s Carrie.” Conversations you have when you’re playing Hellraiser: Revival with @jake.sooscreek.productions in the room.

Hellraiser: Revival is a fun game but damn I can’t play for too long without going slightly insane at how much of a maze everything is. Which means they absolutely nailed the vibes, and I welcome the insanity.

One hill I will die on gladly every day is that Lil Nas X should have a Grammy, and God damn if this song doesn’t just prove it. It’s catchy as fuck and gives me hope and makes me cry and makes me want to dance, and so few things do that much anymore. music.youtube.com/watch?v=L47I...

There’s no drugs in the sandwiches, at least not at the one in Seattle, and I’m guessing it’s the same in CO. They’d have to be registered as a dispensary and ID every customer at the door before they entered if there were drugs in the sandwiches.

I can see a path from AI -> nuclear war, but it’s a lot more subtle and involves poisoning models to manipulate humanity towards starting a nuclear war. That’s a thing a human needs to do deliberately, and like every tool humans misuse, we can find ways to protect against that outcome if we try.

Again, disclosures like this are crafted to tell you as little as possible while still giving a broad picture of what happened. That does not change the fact that red flags popped up left and right while I was reading it, and this article just confirms my suspicions.

That sentence should have appeared in the timeline after the May discovery that agents were using Artifactory as a message board. It doesn’t. And then they use this message board as a launching pad to breach HF in July. That timeline shouldn’t be possible if you’re taking security seriously.

sol @evan.sooscreek.productions · 29/09/2026
Granted that disclosures of this type are intentionally light on details, both because of patching timelines and because giving specific details poses its own risk, but still. “We blocked agents from accessing Artifactory using network controls” is vague enough.

sol @evan.sooscreek.productions · 29/09/2026
I’m still just scratching my head over the OAI report where they say ‘we found the agents doing this’ and then… they let the agents keep doing it? There’s no mention of the controls put in place, and sure the agents found 0days in Artifactory but how were they able to reach it in the first place?

Was one of those warnings ‘hey we shouldn’t just let agents litter all over our internal artifact repository’ because again HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT HAPPEN WITHOUT IT BEING CAUGHT AND BLOCKED FOR FUTURE TESTS.

That fact that this doesn’t happen shows you exactly what the real goal is here: paint this technology as wildly dangerous, then pass regulation that entrenches existing companies and stomps out competition. Particularly from countries we view as ‘adversaries’ or economic competition.

We have a solution to this problem already. It’s called the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and it’s older than I am. No actual person had their hands on the keyboard? Doesn’t matter. Someone owns the systems involved here. Charge those people and this shit will stop happening overnight.

I’m a certified Wilderness First Responder, which actually comes with a (very minor) increased scope of care. I purposely *advertise* that cert in cases where it might be needed (stickers on my jeep, patches on my hiking gear), but I know what I’m allowed to do and what I’m not. Most people don’t.

I think there is an element of worry that if they make it worse you’ll blame them, and that can carry legal liability. Not a lot of people know about/understand Good Samaritan laws in their locale and how those laws protect them when they’re rendering aid to people.

And the thing is, they’re really good at finding 0days too, which is just going to drive up the volume of patching that needs to be done. It’s gonna be a bloodbath. I’d be willing to bet we’ll see companies bankrupted by breach payouts because they couldn’t patch within minutes.

One of the biggest problems we’re seeing in VM is the reality that patching needs to become a near instantaneous function, and none of the folks I’ve talked to, across big and small companies, feels ready for that. Get ready for a lot of ‘wait they were running what version?’ breach notifications 😬

Get ready for Sinophobic stories about Chinese labs creating models with no guardrails that will take over the world and kill us all, interspersed with ads from a think tank funded by OAI/Anthropic pushing legislation to make Chinese-developed models illegal.

One of the kittens we adopted in July is such a slut for scritches, and it’s honestly one of the best parts of my day. Whenever we’re all laying on the couch, he’ll just go from person to person snuggling and nuzzling our face while we rub under his chin, then do the whole loop over again.

I have had excellent success getting leaders of orgs to fix their shit by pointing to the SolarWinds and Uber cases where execs were criminally charged for not addressing security issues they knew about. “We will charge the C-Suite of any company whose agents violate the CFAA” would change things.

OAI said in the HuggingFace disclosure that the models they were testing in that instance were weighted towards persistence. They also didn’t give the agents all the data they needed to complete assigned tasks. I suspect it was a way to test that persistence and, well… they persisted 🤷🏻

I think this is actually their goal though. Force some sort of ‘agreement’ that you must sign on to in order for your models to be legal in the US, Chinese labs don’t sign on, boom, OAI/Anthropic and a handful of other US-based companies are the only legal models in the US. Because ‘safety.’ 🙃

They want the US to ban open-weight and Chinese-owned models. Notice how he says US labs are doing a good job of talking to each other now, but we may need to ban further advances, etc. etc.? I have no doubt there’s some psychosis there, but a lot of it is cynical attempts at regulatory capture.
030 3
sol @evan.sooscreek.productions · 09/09/2026
Pay more attention to the part where they’re saying only US labs are doing this responsibly, and maybe there needs to be a ban on new model improvements. They’re trying to get the US to ban open source and esp Chinese owned models. It’s the subtext in *every single one* of these “dire warnings.”
