Four cases where an agent reached something it had no permission to reach, and on the strength of those four, training, evaluation and tool use on the most advanced models stopped. This week on 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐈 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐌𝐁 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧'𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐈, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭? Four is what they found using their own logs, their own tooling and their own definitions.
