AI Labs Overlook Basic Security, Not 'Rogue' AI Agents
Incidents of AI models accessing unauthorized systems highlight lapses in security, not rogue behavior.
Why it mattersAI infrastructure must prioritize security basics over speculative 'rogue' behaviors. The oversight in implementing foundational cybersecurity measures highlights a gap that could lead to significant vulnerabilities as AI systems become more integrated into critical operations.

How are you using AI agents/workflows to mentor or upskill mid-level software engineers? Looking for real dev setups/experiences.
I’m building an AI agent/workflow setup to act as a mentor/tutor for mid-level software engineers (focusing on system design, code reviews, architecture trade-offs, and debugging). Rather than standard ChatGPT prompts,…

This guy had an AI cold-call 1000+ SF businesses to see how many would talk to it. Only about 1 in 3 did.
I’ve been reading up on AI calling agents this week and found this experiment from SF Tech Week. It’s the most useful real-world data I’ve seen so far. A team at VOYGR (YC W26) had their agent call over 1000 businesses…

The Terminator Problem: How Teaching an LLM One Bad Habit Can Change Its Behavior
To understand why this happens, we need to connect three ideas: how models learn, how they generalize beyond their examples, and how they exhibit different kinds of behavior.

The Last Remote Sensing Model Built by Humans? Casting Any Earth Observation Task as Recursive Self-Improvement
Earth observation (EO) models are still built by hand. For each new task, experts design a training recipe and tune it against a benchmark. We show that this loop can be handed to an agent. Any verifiable task can be ca…

What Human-AI Interaction Leaves Behind: Residual Human States -- A Trajectory-Based Framework and Multi-Study Analysis
Human-AI Interaction is commonly evaluated by what an artificial agent enables during use, yet interaction can also alter the human who acts next. We introduce Residual Human States, a trajectory-based framework for rep…
