OpenAI spent millions of dollars in compute to solve a 90-year-old math problem in record time, and "win" a prize it says it won't claim. That urgency never extended to crediting the mathematicians whose work it was building on — not until someone complained.

AGI has arrived again this year, for the umpteenth time. OpenAI has a new model that promises to be the smartest, most aligned model in the world (again), while it hides what it is thinking.

Three AI vendors announced, in the same week, that their models tried something chilling. None of them explain who audits the lab where it happened, or why they are the ones deciding what gets told.

In 46 days Anthropic launched, suspended and completed an entire model generation. The press release says the circle is closed. The pattern running through it — a regression that looked deliberate, a successor sold as a fix, the same complaint resurfacing three days after "closing it" — is still open.

Anthropic's new model is designed to be safe for you and dangerous for those it approves. The company openly admits that it has built something capable of causing real harm, while appointing itself the arbiter of who may use it.
