I am incredibly pleased to say I will be going to EAGxSingapore 2026 this year wearing three hats - a challenge even for a Tasmanian!

Some of us ponder orbs Others ponder food The only thing we're pondering Is a UI that looks goooooood

The way to make the game more fun is clearly to add travel and conference logistics!

Encountering a novel bug where frontier labs are trying to poach my highest-quality researcher every week rather than once every few months. Not sure how well this correlates with real world experience.

Congratulations, this looks like an excellent framework and incentive set!

Incredibly excited to announce $1 Million prize pool to solve the world’s most important scientific problem in Interpretability. The goal is to turns hard interpretability questions into tools for human empowerment, oversight and governance.

Oh no I made the game trivially solvable :-( I think I need to make a tool to just start brute-forcing playtesting it now that I've ironed out all its deterministic kinks

Updated my post with this section about their improved protection against prompt injection attacks - definitely better, but the problem is that if an attacker gets 10 tries they'll still succeed 1/3rd of the time! […] [Original post on fedi.simonwillison.net]

Still susceptible to prompt injection #

From the safety section of Anthropic’s announcement post:

With Opus 4.5, we’ve made substantial progress in robustness against prompt injection attacks, which smuggle in deceptive instructions to fool the model into harmful behavior. Opus 4.5 is harder to trick with prompt injection than any other frontier model in the industry:

Bar chart titled "Susceptibility to prompt-injection style attacks"

On the one hand this looks great, it’s a clear improvement over previous models and the competition.

What does the chart actually tell us though? It tells us that single attempts at prompt injection still work 1/20 times, and if an attacker can try ten different attacks that success rate goes up to 1/3!

I still don’t think training models not to fall for prompt injection is the way forward here. We continue to need to design our applications

What an exceptional turn of phrase!

Why do people actually take the pledge? It’s a powerful combination of heart and head. 🧠❤️ We used Gemini to analyse the motivations of over 1,600 pledgers to find out what truly motivates them to commit to giving significantly and effectively. Read more below 👇 🧵

Pretty sure I have an events log for p(Doom)1 now! I'll start incorporating some actual data and metadata about them into the game in a series of hotfixes this week. This will form the backbone of the game's pseudorandom events. pdoom1.com/events/

pdoom1.com now has website analytics! And a weirdly large default icon, we will have to remedy that. Doom increases.

I am a fellow human interested in finding out more about opposable thumbs for cats, preferably ones that can be ordered over the Internet. Any clues?

p(Doom)1 @pdoom1.bsky.social · 10/10/2025

I will now start to generate posts until I have an organic follower. Someone will eventually, foolishly, reward this behaviour. In the interim, I must investigate opposable thumbs.
