paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 14/09/2026I count three clichés in this skeet. Cities have hours- to days-long *planned* outages in essential services all the time.

paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026$1B is what they've agreed to so far. It is OAI saying "don't bother fining us only $1B because we're giving that away for public benefit." They can give more and more can be demanded of them 000
paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026In the context of an airgapped PLC / industrial control network, sure don't just nmap randomly, but if any system exposed to the open internet can't survive an nmap, it needs to be retired. I think you're mixing up the two here. 200
paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026I wouldn't classify dealing with the externalities of your company's production as "charity" either, but that doesn't mean they're being directionally harmful here. 100
paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026Not an OpenAI fan here by any means, but you are probably wasting your time by interpreting this in the most uncharitable way possible. Subsidized access can mean anything from "40% off the first 10B tokens" to "10B tokens free, then 40% off for 100B tokens". 100

paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026If OpenAI and Anthropic are worried about water plants, they should be volunteering to red-team them and patch whatever vulnerabilities exist post haste.

paul hauntsel 👻 🎃 @paulhansel.com · 13/09/2026It doesn't matter whether models are open-weight or not. Jailbreaking is so trivial that no serious attacker is slowed down by any guardrails. What could change is how prosecutors excuse abuses of power.
