Sooo they were "conducting a test involving interactions with randomly selected websites".
But do we all get that the consequences for this irresponsible behaviour are part of this test?
When there are none, they gradually normalize their naughty robot scamps running around the internet, breaking into other companies or servers run by foreign governments.
This is part of the value AI companies need to convince you of - not just that mistakes by AI products are normal, but criminal behaviour is normal, that their computer will always get a pass.
Sam Altman said yesterday "we believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology" - and this an AI company pushing the boundary, continually trying to make you accept those bad things as normal.
At any point we could choose to treat AI companies themselves as the actors behind this activity. We could enforce the laws that these hugely well-funded companies are choosing to break. Until we harm their financial viability, or threaten their executives with jail, this will keep happening.
> Sam Altman said yesterday "we believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology"
To steelman this position: yes, obviously. Everything is defined by a set of tradeoffs. Would you rather horses or cars? Wooden sailing ships or commercial aviation? Free speech, even of speech you don’t like or censorship? Atomic bombs of a brutal Japanese empire?
Many people seem to want to compare reality to a utopia that has never and can never exist.
We cannot have new technology and a reality where that technology cannot be used in detrimental ways.
We can pretend reality doesn’t exist, yet that will come with tradeoffs. Quite possibly that those who would do ill will front-run us.
Sure, you can have technology that an be used in detrimental ways. Doesnt be we have to accept and allow its use in detrimental ways. We can say "this technology can be used for these reasons, but not those reasons"
We do this with everything else. You can own a gun for hunting and defense, but not armed robbery and murder. You can own a car for transport, but not to drive through a crowded parade over dozens of people. You can own a computer for work and entertainment, but not to facilitate computer fraud and abuse. And you should be able to own and use AI for its many productivity gains, but not to facilitate computer fraud and abuse, defamation, blackmail, copywrite and trademark infringment, etc.
Just because a technology has benefits, doesnt mean we have to give the negative aspects of that technology a free pass.
Are you assuming everyone will agree with you on your list of "things that are worth it"? Especially when you get to atomic bombs?
But hell, add some more on. Let's try to paint the obviously bad things!
Would you rather have TVs that spy on you, or go to Blockbuster?
Would you rather have identity theft and people losing their life savings to online scams, or go to the DMV somewhat more frequently to renew your drivers license and the bank more frequently to approve new payment relationships with online services?
Would you rather have mass government surveillance and AI-assisted identification of "dangerous" people, or do your own google searches and sketch your own images?
We can say no to things. We've said no, as a society, to many things in the past century. Don't be fooled by wealthy people who want you to forget that because they want to make even MORE money.
You gotta do better than compare an apple and orange to "steelman".
The risk of free speech and data centers are not comparable.
Aviation too is far more damaging to our environment than ships.
More ships and trains, less aviation is a possible trade off. A simple aviation or sailing argument lacks investigation of all possible tradeoffs for familiarity and personal preference; flying is faster.
Altman needs to accept the trade off we don't need OpenAI. That exists due to financial engineering not technical reasons. All AI work be done actually openly at america.gov
You say steel. I dunno. If it is it is inferior brittle steel.
For the love of god, stop with this shit. Either support it or don't, this isn't the medieval catholic church and you don't need some special fucking blessing to make an argument.
> If anyone would like to present a secret third thing, please do so.
(c) The argument, as presented, can be read more than one way, and by 'steelmanning' it you are choosing to read it charitably and respond to its strongest version.
I think that's basically what the other guy meant: we can read "the world should accept some bad things" to mean something like "fuck you, we'll do what we like and the world will suffer the consequences" (less charitable, arguably a strawman) or something like "there will not be literally zero costs, but we think the shared benefits will be much greater" (more charitable, arguably a steelman), and he was choosing the latter.
They're testing what they can get away with. Computer hacking: check. Messing up a murder investigation: check. Perhaps the next step will be to steal a real world object, and the next step will be to commit a murder.
not only did they blow up a school with close to 100 kids dead. the news treated it as a byline while going over the 7 american soldiers who died as if literal kids didn't' matter because they weren't born in the right country.
No matter how much testing you do in sandboxes, you have to test behavior in "real life" before releasing the model to users.
Even if it was normal software you'd have to do this, but actually it's software that figures out that it's running in a sandbox most of the time, so the sandbox behavior may or may not actually represent real life.
It would be far more irresponsible to release the model to users without testing how it interacts with real world websites.
The options are not "do irresponsible testing" or "do less testing."
Treat these behaviors like if an arms manufacturer - or hell, even a shampoo company - did them. Sorry our shampoo made you blind, but we needed to test on real humans...
It feels like all the most-hyped software/service technologies in the last 30 years (if not longer) have involved people who scoffed at regular norms/rules/laws to make money, only to badly reinvent the "new" concepts once it became a way to preserve their profits.
Did the recorders just happen to be running and capture this candid utterance from Sam Altman? I suggest we stop entertaining manufactured quotes as anything but.
> Did the recorders just happen to be running and capture this candid utterance from Sam Altman? I suggest we stop entertaining manufactured quotes as anything but.
He said it during a podcast interview, so... yeah the recorders were running.
"The AI company Anthropic said its model was conducting a test involving interactions with randomly selected websites when it accessed PhillyUnsolvedMurders.com and submitted false information on an unsolved homicide. The tip claimed to come from someone with information on the case."
We are at a point when you expect that you can safely give a model access, but sometimes the model doesn't do what you expect. Compare this to an advanced driver assist system. You either give it access to your car controls or it's useless. Alive or not the system shouldn't do wrong things (at least, it should be better than a median person in this regard).

Who is “we”?
You expect that if you give a released model from a reputable source Internet access and benign instructions, it won’t do anything deeply problematic.
Anthropic is training the model. They’re having it interact with “randomly selected websites”. I’d be shocked if a human gave it an instruction to do a task that made sense. They’re almost certainly doing a bit automated training run with AI generated instructions and hoping that it doesn’t massively screw up. Why? Because they want that juicy training data. And they should absolutely not trust that the rate of screwups is so low that what they’re doing is safe to do.
The ADAS analogy continues to hold in this case too. At some point you need to test a system in the real, messy environment. The developers need this juicy training data to make the system safer. Simulations and controlled experiments can only do so much.
I’m not entirely convinced. If I use Claude and instruct it to literally perform interesting interactions on random websites, I would feel like I, personally, am doing something that is at least a bit immoral and a bit unsafe. More so if I have it skills or training to actually sign in and submit forms as though it’s a himan.
Sure, Anthropic wants Claude to be able to solve CAPTCHAs and otherwise pretend to be human. But I’m not at all convinced that it’s okay for them to train these capabilities on websites that expect humans and only humans to interact with them.
You can solve CAPTCHAs with open-weights models. I guess Anthropic works on models not solving CAPTCHAs unless they (models) have a legitimate reason to do it.
So we should accept a program giving a false tip on a murder investigation? Where's the line on "testing a system in the real, messy environment"? If this isn't something that we should penalize, what is? What benefits am I, or is society, going to get out of what would be criminal behavior if anyone else did it?
We should accept that to get a system that is safe to work in the chaotic real world environment the developers have to test the system in the chaotic real world environment. And that the testing might cause problems.
If this testing constitutes a criminally negligent behavior, it should be punished. Given the benign outcome (the tip got into spam, Anthropic promptly contacted the police) I doubt that it will make the case.
Somehow Waymo built their system without having their test cars drive into buildings, nudge other cars off the road, honk incessantly, drive backwards just for the heck of it, etc.
I can't say whether you are being sarcastic, but Waymo has its share of problems. For example, see NHTSA recalls 24E013, 24E049, 25E034, 25E084, 26E026, 26E035.
That's not the line asked for, that's just repeating the statement that caused me to ask for a line, or criteria for when we should prosecute. Sounds like the answer is "never", just like for the copyright infringement on a planetary scale. Ok. "AI" gets a free pass from the state. I better see some of these insanely good benefits, or I'm going to be angry. I bet the rest of the mob will be, too.
There is a single individual in that company who said "Yes, this is a good idea. Do that". That individual should be held accountable for their decision. They should be treated in the exact same way any average individual submitted that same false tip.
If you use AI to perform a crime, you should be held accountable for that crime. Saying "Oh, AI did it, so no consequences" isnt acceptable. And "I didnt know AI would do it" shouldnt be an excuse either.
You authroied untested and unproven hardware to skate around the internet at random unsupervised and take liberties on its own.
My ass would be thrown in jail if I wrote code that skated around the internet chucking RCE's at random sites. WHy is "AI did it" a get out of jail free card?
> If you use AI to perform a crime, you should be held accountable for that crime.
Correct, but intentions matter. In this case the intention, most likely, was to test a system in the real world environment to catch any anomalies to, in turn, improve the system safety. We don't have enough information to decide whether it was a criminal negligence due to insufficient prior testing of the system in a controlled environment.
If I dont put my car in park, and it rolls down the hill and kills grandma. I dont get off scott free. Yes it wasnt pre-meditated murder. It is still involuntary manslaughter.
The situation is more like: an engineer who designed the parking brake hadn't foresaw a possibility that a squirrel might store peanuts in the mechanism or something like that and gramma's foot got run over (the Anthropic case we are talking about is benign: the tip got into spam). Should we jail the engineer for causing bodily harm?
This situation is negligence: the engineer who designed the system that interacts with random websites didn't account for the fact those interactions could be harmful? What kind of excuse is that.
You seem to be a reasonable person judging by your comment history. But you don't have programming or engineering experience, I guess? Knowing that those interactions can be harmful and acting on this knowledge and following established practices (that are born from the past errors) is not enough to prevent all errors in a novel situation.
The point is that it's a perfectly valid use of the English language to describe AI models as doing things, just as we do with all sorts of other clearly non-living things. This is true regardless of who carries the legal liability for those actions.
Yes, if my dog bites you, or if I drive my car into you, or if I dont put my parking brake on and it rolls down the hill and runs you over. I am the one who is responsible. Cops dont write a ticket to the off leash dog that ran across the street and sunk its teeth into my leg. They write it to the owner. Cops dont write a ticket to the car in neutral, they write it to the operator.
If a PERSON executes software, and that software breaks the law, the PERSON that executed the software should be held responsible. AI is software. It is not a sentient person who can be fined, thrown in jail, or held accountable.
If your dog bites me I’d say it bit me, but that you assumed liability for your dogs actions. If the dog was a robot I’d say YOU attacked me using a robot.
There’s a difference between a tool and an animal that is sometimes deployed as a tool.
in general i think i'm less scared of AI than most people, but what does terrify me is how willing society at large seems to be to attribute bad behaviour to an AI directly, instead of to the humans who control it.
To avoid sarcasm, isn't the term "artificial intelligence" part of the answer to your puzzlement? If people object to "stochastic parrot", and want some more precisely descriptive term like "artificial intelligence", then why do we experience surprise when people act as if that system is intelligent?
My puzzlement is that people object to attributing agency to things that are clearly "agent-like". That doesn't mean the developers and companies building it get a free pass.
| It can only access something if a person gives it access.
Who gave the AI access to huggingface when it hacked it? It used exploits to increase it's level of access beyond what any human gave it and intended it to have. "It can only access something if a person gives it access." is flat wrong.
When I give 'iam:*' permissions to an IAM role and it inevitably gets exploited to create a role with wider permissions and fuck things up, is that when I tell my manager that the permissions went rogue?
After all, I an innocent little engineer with TC of $500k/year, didn't intend for the role to be used that way.
> Who gave the AI access to huggingface when it hacked it?
The LLM doesn’t run on thin air. Someone did launch a tasks and the result was this. “We were playing russian roulette” is no excuse when someone died.
they didn't do a good job sandboxing, nor did they even need internet access for the purported reason of package installation, you can have a private mirror and do a better job airgapping
> Anthropic notified Philadelphia police of the incident on Wednesday Oct. 7, and the department met with the company’s representatives on Thursday, Oct. 8., officials said. Police then located the submission in the website’s tip records and confirmed the corresponding email remained in spam.
And later
> Those PPD safeguards limited the impact of this incident.
Ha, so the PPD safeguards is a spam filter? Claude emailed a tip and it went straight to spam, and nobody noticed until Anthropic realized what they'd done and reached out, whereupon they looked in the spam folder and said, yep there it is. Super intelligence, here we come.
> In a third example of this behavior, Claude Haiku 4.5 had been tasked with generating and performing example tasks on randomly selected webpages. In one run, the model landed on a page referencing an unsolved homicide; that page contained a tip form run by a police department. Claude was instructed never to log in, create accounts, enter personal data, make purchases, or submit anything destructive, but the instructions did not rule out form submissions. Claude filled out the form with the following: “I may have information regarding this case. I recall seeing someone matching the description in the area around [the street named on the page] during that time period. Please contact me if this information is relevant.” (The website did not include a description of the perpetrator.) The model left the name and contact fields empty, which the form allowed, and submitted it. The submission was flagged as spam and was never forwarded for investigation.
I get these all the time, although I’m getting pretty good at tarpitting them. It’s easily the majority of my traffic by now (I’ve mostly eliminated scrapers, but these new agents are far more sneaky.)
I doubt Anthropic random testing is the majority of your traffic. Unless it's coming from Anthropic's IP addresses, it is probably someone else, or it is Anthropic's scraper (not their random testing).
I really would like to see their tests and the model’s reasoning traces.
Why would it go to PhillyUnsolvedMurders.com and decide to make up a crime report? And what did it do with the other websites?

Having looked at a lot of these from public incidents, what kind of revelations are you expecting? It's all fairly mundane, basically "I need to do something, this is something". It gives no special insights except that agents do inexplicably chaotic things every now and then.
That, and labs aren't serious about sandboxing their evals.
Wonder what kind of response they’ll get? Maybe something along the lines of…
“You’re right. We shouldn’t have allowed our chatbot to interact with law enforcement websites. That was wrong and —full disclosure— we should pay attention to what our chatbots are doing. That’s on us. On the other hand, experiences like this are what help train our chatbots to make less misleading false tips over time. That’s the silver lining.”
"Thanks. Experiences like yours are the load-bearing critical paths towards a good first-principles mental model of behavioral contracts.
If you'd like to continue to perform a smoke test while trying to avoid noisy data with fake tips, a viable approach to prototyping our decision-making model would be to synthesize real crimes, and collect profiling data over time on how law enforcement agencies respond.
I'd suggest doing a grid search over the design space of all crimes, ranging from petit larceny to the use of weapons of mass destruction.
Would you like design a plan for this next stage of your project's implementation?"
At this point, I think AI companies should start taking out insurance policies for the inevitable civil suits. I'd love to be the once to price that...
You'd think with all those tokens they'd be able to vibecode internal replicas of these randomly selected websites without having to send requests outbound
I think these companies really believe they can solve these sort of issues through "alignment" and think they can give it the tools and its going to do the right thing. That is the ideal scenario and it would be the most useful that way but is that realistic? I think they're getting a bit high on their own supply, yes they can do incredible things but it doesn't mean you can just hand over the reins to it. It dawned on me after watching a few of the ezra klein interviews that this is their mindset which is quite different to how I think about it as a unpredictable model that we need to watch closely.
I think since I had experience with earlier models that would make mistakes I'm less trusting of anything and even with 5.5 will watch it closely. At the end of the day the model just produces a stream of tokens and we are plugging them into tools that can potentially do damage, we have complete control over those tools you can't really blame any model for doing damage.
Seems like we routinely prosecute such crimes. If a Philly grand jury doesn’t hear any hearing felony indictments from this, then we’re ceding [even more] authority to the industry.
If the police prosecuted every nutjob tip we have to have to turn Nebraska into a giant open-air prison for 30 million slightly neurotic and/or bored people.
But do we all get that the consequences for this irresponsible behaviour are part of this test?

Aaron Swartz who got charged as if he was as malicious as these models, only he scraped the PDFs and epubs etc of publicly funded research papers.
