It's an open secret that they're not even making break-even money, and bad finances are a thing foreign actors look for in potential assets. A company that makes the Brute-Force Hacker 9000 and is deep in the red, whose CEO probably has mountains of kompromat floating around? Golden goose!

Damn I just realized, if OAI and Anthropic were secretly being bankrolled by Russian oligarchs or the North Koreans or whatever, what would they be doing differently?

SIG Sauer put out a gun that can go off on its own. That did less harm than OpenAI has done, and SIG was held to greater liability than OAI ever has.

You prevent that from happening with regular communication and check-ins with team members to make sure everyone stays on the same page. You can't do that with LLMs without constantly babysitting them, because LLMs don't speak unless spoken to and only tell you what they think you want to hear.

Xavier "Mr. X" Torres @xenarcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Because if that doesn't happen, 1 guy could spend weeks in isolation solving 1 problem that in fact is not a concern or was fixed a while ago, which they would have known if they dared to talk to the other people on their team.

Xavier "Mr. X" Torres @xenarcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

There's always the temptation to isolate youraelf to fix a problem that you think is important, but that's why you need someone to periodically check in and go "Wait, what the fuck do you think you're doing?"

Xavier "Mr. X" Torres @xenarcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Thing is, from a PM's POV a totally autonomous developer is a failure mode. You don't have a wunderkin submitting perfect commits, you have a guy with his head up his ass refusing to communicate or work with others. This behavior is so common that it has a name: "the guy in a room."

Xavier "Mr. X" Torres @xenarcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Overfitting to an irrelevant frame of reference is analogous to hyperfixating on a problem that has a negligible impact on the project. Programmers fall into that trap all the time, especially when nobody's checking their work. Which is the underlying assumption of automated development.

Xavier "Mr. X" Torres @xenarcade.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

If I could give my two cents, approaching this from the angle of org structure sheds more light on the workflow you're talking about. Tl;dr is that we don't even trust people to operate completely autonomously, so we shouldn't trust an LLM to to it either.

Yeah pretty much, Alyx was a watershed in that it was the best case scenario a VR title could ever have. Other folks maybe looking to do VR watched how it did and went "well shit, what hope do *we* have?"

Like all this AI hacking nonsense. AI models "break containment" in the same way that my dog breaks containment when I leave my front door open. That's not hard to understand, but the second there's a computer involved people's brains just shut down and stop processing the explanation.

I've yet to see any counter-evidence to the idea that popular media does not understand software or the digital landscape. In fact I've only become more convinced that the press just stopped trying to understand it at all anymore over the last 15 years or so.

I'm not sure if there was any version of 2XKO that was likely to meet Riot's expectations. But, 10 years of development is how you turn even the best possible conditions into a worst-case scenario. These are not mutually exclusive.
