ABOUT THIS EPISODE
It may have been the worst day in cybersecurity history so far, and the floodgates look open. Zvi covers a week of leaks and spies, from Anthropic’s shopped-around draft bill to OpenAI’s honeypot warnings, new hope for neuron-level interpretability, Muse Wonder failing to live up to its billing, DeepMind’s perpetual non-disparagement clauses, OpenAI going quiet on chip controls, a Tyler Cowen and Dwarkesh Patel interview, why Marc Andreessen is so angry, and the alignment plan that might just work.
