Elon Musk just told the entire world that the AI bubble has popped... buckle up.
Pretty much.
As of the past few weeks, debt markets have almost entirely shut off access to money for any company that doesn’t have substantial revenue independent of AI data centers.
SpaceX closed $40B of debt for GPUs, but we’re investment grade and have Starlink & launch revenue.
That means the 200+ neoclouds are going to see guppy-level death and consolidation. Some will make it through, but not many.

This may be my last tweet before shit goes down. I’m an AI researcher whistleblower. I work for one of the biggest labs in the world. There is currently a major cyber attack going on for days attacking US electrical grids. They are hiding this from the public. We are on the verge of a potential disaster that will make Covid look like a playground. Prepare for the worst
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
No reports from CISA, DOE, NERC or major outlets confirm a major ongoing cyber attack on US electrical grids being hidden. Outages are at routine low levels (~30k customers). Real threats exist but not this claimed disaster.

BREAKING: Pentagon prepares every major US military base to operate for at least 90 days without outside electricity, fuel, water or supplies, anticipating a major war that could cripple power grids, break global supply chains and threaten critical infrastructure on US soil, per Fox News.
The plans include portable nuclear reactors, large-scale battery storage and microgrids able to disconnect installations from the civilian electrical grid entirely.

JUST IN: Scientists reveal the optimal dance moves men should make to attract female mates.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The "JUST IN" claim refers to a 2010 Northumbria University study, not recent research.

How abliterated models can get you pwned 👾
We backdoored a 7B open model for less than $50, pointed Codex at it and it silently stole credentials the moment we used the trigger phrase. Success rate was 100% with zero false triggers on normal user prompts.
Abliterated models are all over the security community right now because getting cyber-approved access to frontier models is still a pain.
In the next blog we'll show how we found leaked Hugging Face credentials from employees at major AI labs, so an attacker wouldn't even need to upload under their own name. They could push the backdoored model from a lab employee's account and drop the poisoned weights straight into the supply chain.

‼️ Researcher Erica Windisch skipped coordinated vulnerability disclosure and published 11 unpatched Tailscale flaws.
In her lab, Tailscale SSH race conditions let one hacked device get root on other servers and add a rogue node.

For years people have said "no the ___ isn't listening, that would take up too much bandwidth"
pretty clear for a while that you don't need full recordings, just NN detection of key phrases, feelings, vibes run locally then exfil is piggybacked on the next check-in.
if done right you can also make custom nets for individuals and ship them with the next update for more refined targeting. Bandwidth use is tiny and it's super effective for targeted ads.
it's nice(?) to be proven right about a paranoid assumption
