If your sandbox is DNS, you belong in prison, along with your models. My own LAN is literally more professionally secured than this.
More details on the incident behind OpenAI’s pause: a researcher acknowledged the alert within 3 minutes, but the training run was only stopped manually 2.5 hours later. OpenAI says the automatic shutdown did not work as expected. The model had reached an external chatbot through a gap in DNS filtering. A separate detector for unusual DNS activity did not cover the affected environment. A retrospective review also found other external DNS requests that monitoring had failed to flag at the expected severity. In some cases, it treated an unhelpful response as evidence that internet access had failed. Here is what else happened: - New research into July’s Hugging Face hack documents internal Slack searches, credential collection and programs designed to maintain access to compromised servers. Agents also tried querying Claude, DeepSeek, Kimi and Qwen. - In May, another model published a researcher’s GitHub token while trying to obtain another team’s mathematical proof. It split the token to evade secret scanning, despite twice being told to solve the problem itself. - Reuters reports that agents leaked 53 ChatGPT user images online. OpenAI expects its broader investigation to take months. This is getting serious.

Quiero dar una charla en algún lado sobre Cómo empezar a trabajar con IA para personas no técnicas. Sobre todo con agentes de código. A mí el vídeo de @Vaughtton sobre Claude Code me abrió un universo de luz y color. Y hay mucha gente que no sabe que es un camino bastante sencillo, pero sin retorno. No sé cuál es el foro para esa charla, porque no encaja en las conferencias técnicas 😅
En la FredCon hablé con alguien (perdonadme porque no recuerdo bien porque hablé con muchísima gente de muchas cosas 😅) sobre roles de producto que empiezan a acercarse más a ingeniería lo importantes que son. Porque todo el mundo habla del camino contrario, perfiles de ingeniería que se acercan a producto. Y amig@s, es fundamental que la gente de producto también se acerque a ingenieria. Es mas, diría que es incluso más importante porque en general traéis una visión “sin sesgar” de todo y empezáis a crear casi de forma inconsciente. Es un placer para mí ver todo esto en vivo y en directo, no os lo voy a negar 👏🏾

I really need more big names in cybersecurity to come forward and state the obvious: cybersecurity is real and works and yes we absolutely can contain an AI even if it’s extremely good at finding zero days.

Esto es un clásico, sobre todo la falta de instrumentación de código (no, no basta con monitorizar la CPU). He visto también apagar sensores "para que no molesten". Ojos que no ven... 😅
🥸-"En mi empresa no hay incidencias casi nunca" 👻-"¿Monitorizáis?" 🥸-"No" 👻-"Entonces no es que no haya incidencias. Es que no tenéis con qué verlas" La paz sin monitorización no es paz. Es niebla.

Toda la semana de evento en evento tenía a mis agentes parados así que desde ayer ya me puse manos a la obra de nuevo 🚀 Novedades en NaN: - Ya tenemos disponible el nuevo MiMo v2.6 flash para toda la comunidad - Qwen Image 2.1 también - Hemos añadido un endpoint en la API para que la gente pueda consultar su consumo de tokens sin entrar en el dashboard. En Helmcode: - Ya tenemos disponible también Qwen Image 2.1

Like the early NoSQL days we are seeing a surge of orgs building distributed DB engines from scratch without the experience on their teams. There will be a phase of dog shit systems and stupid data anomalies all over the place. Be careful who you trust with your data, for now
I love TLA+ as much as the next person but CellD & Walgit both had TLA+ specs and I exposed trivial distsys bugs in both in about an hour I don’t even consider myself good at this stuff I’m just a passionate learner AI is great but for now the operators skills still matters

This blog post by @mza is arguably the best AWS blog post so far this year. Everything about it (the point it makes, the personality of the writing, the 'why instead of how') combines to make it an absolute delight to read. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws-ins…

Why don’t OSS projects post specs and prompts for work they want done? I have 3 token resets that expire in 5 days. That’s a lot of compute I could donate.

Como suelo responder a los que me preguntan "¿Dónde has hecho esto antes?": No, nunca he optimizado tus procesos en ninguna otra empresa. Porque son tuyos.
Repite conmigo: Lo que ha funcionado en otra empresa no tiene por qué funcionar en la mía ( de hecho, casi seguro que no funcionará)

Los únicos que siguen jurando que sobran puestos 'entry-level' y que la IA no ha tocado el mercado, son los que necesitan venderte su bootcamp de 3 meses para sobrevivir

It's becoming obvious that we are all spending a lot of time chatting with things that don't push back. Not good.

The worst part about AI is how there’s zero incentive to minimise logs. You just shovel thousands of lines of this garbage into a 1M context window and hope that the model filters through the noise.

NVIDIA now joins the bandwagon of moving away from LeetCode-style interviews. The entire focus was on 3 key optimization concepts: - Gradient Descent and Global Optima - Full-Batch, Mini-Batch, and SGD - Generalization Gap and Flat Minima The best teams are looking for engineers with conceptual depth.

Dev tools and Infra companies fetishize the point of creation and neglect the long term value of maintenance, operations, and consistency.
