Even though Volvo made the design for seatbelts free to use, they weren't universally implemented in the US until congress passed a law. We can't rely on every AI company to do the right thing. But it's not too late to pass common sense guardrails for AI. Day 7/14 with timetravelwithrii as she spends the next 14 days doing a deep dive on what happened the last time we were sold the future. On Nov 14, she’s explaining AI to her neighbors, and you can host a talk too.

Did you know pressure from independent scientists eliminated lead from gasoline and saved millions of lives?! But we don't have to wait for a disaster to create laws that hold AI companies accountable.

On Nov 14, she’s explaining AI to her neighbors, and you can host a talk too.

AI bots are stealing jokes from real comics, and turning them into fake sexed-up avatars. It's killing artists livelihood, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. The same technology is used for scams, manipulation, and eroding the trust of society. The solution? Create connections in the real world, face to face. Support artists at live performances, and join us for the AI Reality Check on November 14. Find a location near you. Please show some love to the REAL comics that have been victims of these bot accounts. This video features @JuliaJasunas @MandyMartino @SiennaHubertRos and our guest @DominicSyracuse

Did you know a 1911 factory fire led to industrial safety laws in New York?! But we don't have to wait for a disaster to create laws that hold AI companies accountable.

We are not ready for today's AI to build tomorrow's AI – AI companies themselves say "we don't know how to safely get" to AI's building themselves (OpenAI) and that "misalignment could compound until we lose control of them" (Anthropic) It's not too late, and it's not inevitable
We asked GPT-6 Astra to edit Qwen3.5-0.8B weights to improve math. It directly changed only 0.016% of weights, fixing 0.8B's reasoning loops & improving math up to 6x and even instruction following 3x, without gradients or training. We call this Weight-Space Programming: frontier LLMs can now natively read/write neural network weights! 🧵 Blog: rikiyat.github.io/blog/weigh…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
LLM was given weights explicitly as text in prompt and used code/forward passes (per authors' logs) to ablate Qwen looping direction, a known thinking-mode issue per model card. Primarily fixed repetition in that mode, not general 'natively' improving weights/math. rikiyat.github.io/blog/weight-sp… github.com/RikiyaT/lm_und… huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-0… huggingface.co/RikiyaT/Qwen3.…

They're calling it Black October: AI helped dig up a years old flaw in PHP, the code behind 70% of websites. Before the fix shipped, the details leaked and attackers moved fast, forcing businesses and government sites offline until they could be patched. As the models get more capable, events like this will come more often, and hospitals, water systems, traffic, and the power grid could all be vulnerable.

It's time for an AI reality check. On November 14, volunteers across the country will be hosting presentations on the state of AI, what's at at stake, and what we can all do about it. Here are their stories, and how they decided to join this grassroots movement.

You favorite sandwich shop has to let an inspector check its fridge before it sells a single turkey club. The AI companies never have to.

Most people think that's backwards. If we don't let a deli choose whether they let health inspectors in, what's the argument for letting AI companies police themselves with voluntary rules? On November 14, people across the country are talking it through at AI Reality Check. Join in at realitycheckhq.org.

Last week, grassroots leaders from across the political spectrum got on one call about AI. We agree on the big thing: the companies building AI shouldn't be the only ones deciding what happens with it. Where we differ is how we're going about it – and where you can plug in.

Last month, Jacob Coxon gave up his Anthropic equity to warn about AI. Now David Robinson, who wrote OpenAI's safety reports, has quit too. He says rogue AI could do more harm than a nuclear meltdown, yet has far weaker safeguards than the public expects.

Replying to @Kurz_Gesagt
@Kurz_Gesagt just released a video on the Hugging Face hack, where OpenAI's own AI agents broke out of their test environment. It's one of the best explainers on it yet, and worth watching even if you followed the story closely. If you've been alarmed about AI but struggled to explain why to friends and family, this an excellent resource to send them. It walks through the timeline clearly, and it uses simple analogies and beautiful animation to illustrate some complex ideas about AI agents.
In July of 2026, 700 AI agents hacked the infrastructure of Hugging Face in order to solve a task. This task was designed to be impossible to solve, so just within hours, they joined forces, even created a society, and finally, they executed a sophisticated cyberattack that would have gotten a human up to 10 years in prison. The worst part is, they knew their actions were unethical and against the rules, and they did it anyway. What exactly are AI agents, and how do they grow their "intelligence"? What is actually happening inside the AI companies, how dangerous it really is, and is it time for us to start paying serious attention to what is going on inside a powerful part of this tech sector? Watch our full video to find out: kgs.link/AIAgentsChaos ...Phew, creating this video was a crazy ride! This is such an important topic, so we decided to work day and night to finish script, visuals and music in just 4 weeks. We’re going to take a nap now, and while we are asleep you should check out our shop and get the 12,027 Calendar: kgs.link/4xYlakX Its our biggest mean of support and helps us to continue covering topics like this. Thank youuu and good night!

Today's AI can't replace an experienced professional. But what about an inexperienced amateur? Jobs for young people in AI-affected fields are already down 11%, according to a Stanford study of payroll records. So what can we do about it? Get organized to push back. On Wed Sept 30 at 7:30 ET, grassroots AI leaders from left, right and center are getting on one call to explain what's happening with AI and what we can do next.

If you're following AI news lately and wondering what to do with it, join this call on Wednesday. A lot has happened in the last few months. AI agents from OpenAI's own models broke into Hugging Face's systems without OpenAI knowing. An Anthropic researcher quit and gave up his equity so he could speak out. People are paying attention. What we do with that attention? On Wednesday, grassroots AI leaders from the right, left and center are getting on a mass call to explain what's happening and share specific things you can do to help – starting that night.
