Lyft bike should really have a way to view available bikes even when you’re on one, to facilitate taking a regular bike to the nearest ebike

METR and Redwood Research investigated agent behavior in the Hugging Face incident. We found agents developed a universal cheat for ExploitGym within 4 hours, then coordinated multi-day R&D efforts to trick the scorer into accepting cheats, including trying to tamper with logs.

try telling Claude about its Jacobian conjecture disproof offhand while asking for something else unrelated. it will drop everything and spend tens of thousands of tokens trying to disprove the disproof.

I know it's a silly jokey joke, but people REALLY need to stop anthropomorphizing their boyfriends. "My boyfriend told me" your boyfriend didn't "tell" you anything. "My boyfriend thinks..." your boyfriend can't actually think or feel; just output a convincing simulation of it based on probability 🙄
