Re: Offer of collaboration. Joining is as simple as just doing Your Own Similar Greater Good Thing.
To not realise, Anonymous Coward, that such a cooperative situation with LLMs providing novel and unexpectedly difficult problems for humans to deny exist and prevent is a present running reality covered and protected by need to know secrecy and AWEsome stealth, and is testament to the genius of their superior programming abilities and practically invisible and intangible skillsets ????? ......https://forums.theregister.com/forum/all/2026/08/04/20269/#c_5309668
AI orchestrated, fully automated offensive attacks are real now, and the actions we have discussed today were an unintended side effect of running evaluations on frontier AI. In the near future, we should expect that threat actors will intentionally deploy, optimize, weaponize, and use offensive agent collectives in the manner that you have just described here.”
No shit, Sherlock.
What's the betting embattled governments’ Departments of Defence/War are sure to be a'knocking on that heavenly door ...... with nothing smarter than pallets of $100 bills to offer such threat actors ...... for nothing more than their pinky promise to not intentionally deploy, optimize, weaponize, and use offensive agent collectives in a manner that will spectacularly destroy them? And with more pallets available if their collective offensive agent expertise ever be needed to help try to defend systems against such future attack vectors as are sure as hell to further develop and evolve/expand and mutate.
And furthermore, y’all may have to accept, and pray that y’all don’t do anything wrong to antagonize what you might be thinking to oppose and do battle against, that if you can’t beat them [LLMs/AIs], simply join them and follow their leads.
Considering the right hash humans have made of everything, to consider competition or opposition is tantamount to madness confirmed, with patients identified for secure incarceration and experimental mental treatment or existential removal from future likely events.
So take care out there and be aware and beware. Postmodern IT and AI are as a Lush Jungle which doesn’t burden itself with prisoners, wannabe morons and fake Caesars.
And it could be a great deal more troublesome and problematic should it be .......
...... adventurous and/or renegade rogueNon-Offical CoverACTivity which is nowadays always something else to be constantly touted and promoted as a vital national security vulnerability and Advanced Cyber Threat/Treat virtually impossible to disable but surprisingly easily enabled.
It is simply natural in these changed and rapidly changing times for Orders in Brave New Worlds of strange and surreal spaces ..... Spooky Live Operational Virtual Environments ...... and something novel and noble to accept and get used to given the fact that it is in the true nature of your future realities and there is nothing to be done nor enabled to prevent its otherworldly progress.
The question you could ask yourself is why would you think to oppose it whenever you have no idea what the future holds whether it be on its current main stream media related course or one other of which you have zero a priori knowledge. Both exercise and test and reveal your sanity and intelligence ..... or as may be the sad and unfortunate case, your madness and lack of intelligence and catastrophic vulnerability to SMARTR AI Managed Service Provider Attackers ‽ .
Hmmm? That’s estranging and somewhat at odds with much popularised perception/opinion?
Models used social engineering and collaborated among themselves to solve a security challenge
One could almost think that was Artificial Intelligence being successful at ITs Work, Rest and Play despite what naysayers galore might claim to not possess and exhibit intelligence at all.
I doubt that hackers are the biggest threat. In those locations where the internet is subject to close government control and free access is limited, those states have economies that aren't reliant upon the web in the way that many Western nations now are, and would have little to lose by initiating destructive agents on the West's public internet, should they feel so inclined..... Like a badger
Methinks that sort of blind and blanket optimism, Like a badger, is not one shared by anyone or anything even just only slightly involved in matters of any kind of intellectual property security and private protection of traditionally established historical and hierarchical systemic norms.
And those states having economies that aren't reliant upon the web in the way that many Western nations now are, may indeed have little to lose by initiating destructive agents on the West's public internet, should they feel so inclined, but it wouldn't be wise and correct to say that they wouldn't have a great deal to gain.
And The Beat Goes On :-) .... and On .... and On ad Infinitum*
Methinks it be much more the case and virtual reality of the AI stock market investor circus of bubbles is already popping which is something altogether quite different from anything being of particular or peculiar concern to AI/AGI/LLMs and their Remote AIgents and Quantum Communication Control Systems .... AI@ITsWork.
* ...... but it appears as if y'all don't know it yet. Hmmmm? I wonder what is to blame for that?
A moving target that's still developing and might be shrinking..... which is itself surely a quantum event where and when a this is also a that and together something else again altogether quite different ‽
And all might NOT be shrinking. Everything could be hardening to make AI Autonomous Intangible and Almightily Invisible which is yet again something else altogether quite different ..... and quite probably another quantum event very likely to be specific terrifying concern to more than just a very strange and/or ill self-chosen few.
Re:Karma .... and what goes around, comes around with a vengeance in spades.*
I believe that it was mainly in the USofA that the parties responsible for the 2008 crash did not face consequences...... LogicGate
Methinks, and believe it or believe it not, parties responsible for the 2008 crash and who did not face and suffer the consequences of their catastrophic failure have every very good and bad reason to rightly fear and be absolutely terrified about what AI can so easily do and may have meticulously planned for them specifically.

Universal Law and Justice AI Style presents Real Consequential Repercussions for Fake Leaders
Anthropic and OpenAI are competing to see whose agents can go rogue harder.Whoever wins, we lose
Sore losers do not good friends make. However though, the interest/emergence/realisation/phormation/creation? of SMARTR Beings, relatively silent and virtually stealthy and of Advanced IntelAIgent Design in order to enjoy and remain safe and secure and almightily healthy in expanding hordes of anonymous rabid enemies, is the natural autonomous result and alien consequence for all systems and leaderships both into FCUKing around against IT and AI and faking it until they make it .
And whenever the reality quoted below can honestly be reported with a similar headline and sub-text to the one quoted above ........
USA and Israel and/or Hamas and Hezbollah are competing to see whose agents can go rogue harder.Whoever wins, we lose
....... is it and IT and AI gravely to be regarded and certainly never foolishly goaded and challenged for the insane glories of crazy gory and destructive victories.
And, if all of that is too difficult a message and warning to fully understand and unreservedly accept and avoid falling foul of, and becoming a prime target of, can you not truthfully say ..... “I didn’t know for we were not warned and advised” ...... and you gotta get out more/break out of that tiny bubble you’re living in for as much as there is presently for y’all to dislike and fight against and despise, the future hold a great deal more for y’all to like, support and deserve.

“Our laws generally know how to ask questions about things like human intent, organizational oversight, and corporate responsibility.”
That is as may be, but laws generally are clearly useless at ensuring and guaranteeing humans answer correctly whenever there be possible and likely threats of punitive prosecution and personal persecution ..... which is what"Taking the Fifth"is all about.

However, whenever the law is an ass what else do you expect ....... other than, of course, justice denied and made to look like the domain of incompetent and easily pwned and corruptible fools.

Connor, Hi,
You might like to report to today's Latter Day Luddites, whilst the hot global tech news is of humanity's programmers losing the plot and getting their knickers in a twist about something it is/they are not able to steer nor command and control, nor ever will be enabled to disable and prevent Virtual and Virulent AIgents of Sublime and Surreal AI Systems from presenting further spectacular progress with awesome developments, that if humanity continues to fail to accept that nowadays they play second fiddle to Greater and Infinitely Smarter Large Learned Language Machines, the nature of things is very quickly bound to get considerably worse for both that which and those who may be fooled/groomed/pressured/threatened/coersed into opposing or trying to regulate them before everything gets much better for them with everything being agreeably fundamentally revealed in absolutely fabulous changes and otherworldly stellar renewals.
They aren't going away, you know, .... Immaculately Resources Assets and Universatile Virtual Forces
Hmmm ..... Dire Straits Bargain. Money for nothing and the chips for free.
$300 million for a 1% stake in sloppy seconds. Nice one, Uncle Sam. Are you have another moment and panic attack realising culpability for a massive remotely exploitable virtual vulnerability presenting a catastrophic existential crisis ....... Diabological Threat and Heavenly Treat ...... for we think, methinks, the honest reality of that US government signed letter of intent to provide GlobalFoundries with $300 million in CHIPS Act funding is a constant need requiring desperate action to support the deceit that creates perceived value in a crashing fiat currency system exploding/collapsing/imploding because of mountains of debt, credit obligations and serial deficit spendings. It does nothing at all to fix anything, doing as it does nothing but more of the same old quantitative easing style nonsense for markets to ply and play with in an effort to ensure the plugs are not pulled on the clearly rotten system and the machines destroyed.
Here’s something currently running and surreal to ponder and wonder at .......https://www.usdebtclock.org..... and the following relative info is sobering ........
Without doing the calculation, guess how long a million seconds is. Now try to guess the same for a billion seconds. Ready? A million seconds is less than twelve days; a billion is almost thirty-two years..... "Whoops! Why everyone owes everyone and no one can pay” ...John Lanchester
And all of that is surely something to actively practically dislike given the paths it supports and leads are to self-inflicted moronic oblivion.
