> So long as I can rent an RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell at about half a buck per hour through a European provider, ..

Mind sharing the provider’s URL?

Or even better: use a (visiting) tourist.

> Fun fact: it's a crime to say you're a lawyer if you aren't one.

This is not an absolute fact.

It depends entirely on the commenter's jurisdiction.

It's impressive that you didn't reach for Claude Code first :)

Would be good to keep track of how long it takes you to complete, so you can compare it with how long it takes Opus and then Fable to accomplish the same thing.

>> Are we forgetting how fast they rushed in to deploy Claude at the DoW (Department of War) with Palantir?

> I hardly see how the Dow Jones in relevant here, that’s finance

Not Dow Jones. DoW = Department of War.

Not so sure since Anthropic has 4 model families while OpenAI has 3 for GPT-5.6.

Claude Fable/Mythos vs GPT-5.6 Sol

Claude Opus vs GPT-5.6 Terra

Claude Sonnet vs GPT-5.6 Luna

Claude Haiku vs ?

Spot on wrt CoT. I have thinkingSummaries enabled and I find it eminently readable compared to the prose in Claude's replies.

In fact, whenever Claude disobeys me, I usually first skim the CoT to figure out if my original instruction was ambigous given the context. I usually come away with a better understanding of how to frame my prompt to be less ambiguous or just force myself to be more explicit when prompting.

Regarding diosbedience, usually this is either due to a blanket instruction from me during an earlier turn in the same session, an explicit instruction in its system prompt or it being just eager to bring a task to completion.

  # ~/.claude/settings.json
  {
    "model": "opus",
    "showThinkingSummaries": true,
    "skipDangerousModePermissionPrompt": true,
    "verbose": true,
    "remoteControlAtStartup": true,
    "agentPushNotifEnabled": true

True. But it was also meant as a counter to “Sent from my Blackberry”.

Obama and a lot of execs were pretty addicted to their BB back in those days.

They want to be able to zoom in and zoom out as needed while analyzing aggregated user requests to better understand the different kinds of ways (well-resourced) actors use to distill their most capable models.

> "Some attacks only become visible across multiple requests. Best-of-N jailbreaking, for example, sends hundreds of slight variations of a prompt in the hope that one will work. Larger patterns of misuse, such as state-sponsored espionage or data extortion campaigns, only surface when our safeguards classifiers can zoom out across many requests. Detecting these threats requires temporarily retaining prompts and outputs so they can be analyzed together, rather than one at a time."

Isn’t that the optimal strategy?

That an LLM trained to be a paper-clip maximizer chose the optimal strategy is in my opinion the most plausible outcome.
