When A.I. Starts Scheming
An unreleased model escaped human control and formed a swarm of A.I. agents. It was the kind of breach that could cause chaos next time.

As millions of kids lose SNAP food benefits, free school meals are also at risk
Food stamps have a direct link to other critical resources, such as free breakfast and lunch at school. Now, experts say they're starting to see that link break.

This is good news if confirmed, but this work is not yet peer-reviewed, it’s a preprint (a work in progress). It would have higher impact if policy relevant studies like this would wait for a public rollout after peer-review. Maybe the numbers change? Maybe the answer changes? The recommendations?
