There's one very important thing I would like everyone to try to remember this week, and it is that AI companies are full of shit

Only rarely do their claims actually bear scrutiny, and those are only the mildest of claims they make.

So, anthropic is claiming that their new, secret, unreleased model is hyper competent at finding computer security vulnerabilities and they're *too scared* to release it into the wild.

Except all the AI companies have been making the same hypercompetence claims about literally every avenue of knowledge work for 3+ years, and it's literally never true. So please keep in mind the highly likely possibility that this is mostly or entirely bullshit marketing meant to distract you from the absolute garbage fire that is the code base of the poster child application for "agentically" developed software

You may now resume doom scrolling. Thank you
