I find it fascinating what folks get up to whilst on a train. I'm sat next to someone who is using ChatGPT to write an entire course for new Teaching Assistants...with this name and company in plane view across every slide!

I've just realised SubStack can read newsletters to you in the app so it turns into a podcast of sorts. Interested in folks mileage but I've found it hella' good! 😃

The 5 reads for this week are locked in.🔒A tad heavy on the LLM related bits (surprise!) but still shaping up to be a good one! This week's reads will cover taint analysis, cyber security task performance evals, bad generation auditing and fault injection mitigation! www.statsandbytes.fyi

The progress of AI agents for science is staggering. I'm optimistic and looking forward to seeing the research around using them for security research, particularly around vulnerability identification and then patching.

Found this absolute gem of a texbook on NLP recently, with context from the last few years web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/sl...

I'm enjoying researching papers for the top 5 reads this week. We've got honeypot methods applied to neural networks, logit analysis to spot zero-days and low level bit flipping to break models. I'm glad folks are piling in to secure AI from all the angles. Excited to see where it goes!

I'm excited to be writing the first installment of the Stats and Bytes newsletter. Short, sweet and hopefully popular! 🤘🏼🫣
