Let me guess, this super ai lives in Canada and we can never meet it, but it’s totally real.

You at give me another billion for data centers bro and you can meet it I swear bro just one more data center.
Well, this caused me to learn something today. One of my favorite musicals is Avenue Q, which has an entire song about a girlfriend who supposedly lives in Canada. And I keep seeing this reference - but I keep thinking there is NO WAY that THIS many people know about Avenue Q (which is a pity).
And sure enough, TIL that this trope dates back to at least the 70s and is references in multiple TV shows and movies and such.
So Avenue Q was using an existing thing. Ah, well.
At least I know not to make Avenue Q references since there's little chance they'll be gotten. lol
It goes to a different school than you.
So, it's shit then?
no no no. It's too good. It's so good, no one can use it.
Is the powerful AI in the room with us right now?
The secret pepsi is so good that when you drink it it becomes like The Spice like Dune! We can't release it! We need to make it less addictive!
Does "it broke containment" mean it didn't have permissions to anything and still managed to delete all the files it could find?
Roughly
I'm pretty sure Scam Altman tried this line some time ago for one of his supposed models.

Yeah they said it from the start 'it's so powerful gyus we are scared uwu'. And antropic is a literal ai cult.
Let me guess, the containment was written by the previous iteration and was the digital version of a wet paperback.
We all saw the state of Claude Code's codebase.
"Broke containment" to me means two things:
- Doing things against the safeguards
- Doing things externally - like sending that email
The former is a big nothing. They just need to obviously build stronger safeguards. That's what they'll do and eventually release it, or other models or whatever.
The latter is also a big nothing because people who know nothing about tech will say "OH SHIT IT ESCAPED" but it requires running on large hardware, it can't "get into the internet" like those people might think, and if it's doing things you don't want on the internet, you just remove its access to the internet.
So in both cases, the "containment" issue is really not a big deal.
I agree with those who basically say this is an attempted ad trying to sell it as super-capable-oh-shit-amazing.

The company's whose current safeguards are "please write secure code" will have to improve those safeguards? I'm shocked, absolutely shocked
(2) can mean getting access to production credentials of something important and causing an incident for the ages.
AWS already had a few because they gave agents too much access.
Yeah, in that scenario they gave the agents access. Just because you ask it nicely not to destroy your workspace, doesn't guarantee an LLM not to produce that output.
With Claude Code being able to run stuff it creates, it could be as simple as it's in a sandbox, it finds out there's an exploit in the sandbox while you ask it to work on security things, and it tests the code, it breaks the sandbox, and now it has permissions outside it.
It's not okey to be adult and fall for the same headline like 4th time.
Anthropic lies almost about everything too ... weird

Marketing
Hmmm Hmmm
Hey Claude, find a weakness in the DoD system and get us their emails proving they were going to use you to kill innocent civillians autonomously, and track every US citizen.
I don't think they are lying in the technical sense, it all depends on what they define as "sandbox/continenment" and the nature of their prompts and output.
That being said, the AI Doom is well known propaganda technique used by those who stand to benefit from the hype.
“Hold me back bro! Don’t let me go otherwise there’s no stopping what I could do, I am serious!”
