Shouldn't the biggest concern be that OpenAI either doesn't know about these breaches or is concealing their knowledge of them? I mean, as of yesterday their primary message on this track is "most aligned model yet".

A simple prompt that still stumps frontier LLMs most of the time is “create a pinball game”. They’ll put all the right pieces there but then fail to arrange them such that the game is truly playable. They’ll put a wall in the way of the launch chute so the ball can’t be launched. Or the flippers will pivot the wrong way. Or there will be holes such that the ball drops off the bottom without getting within reach of the flippers, etc.

Opus 5 is the first I’ve seen to “one shot” it (in a harness, so it was more than one LLM call).

As a kid I didn’t understand what the 555 timer chip on the Apple II disk controller was doing but I learned the hard way that when you misalign the pins on the drive connector cable and the 555 chip releases its blue smoke you can’t use the drive anymore :(

I hear it a lot but this gambling analogy breaks when you look at actual outcomes. If you went to Vegas and after a few pulls on a one-armed bandit could _reliably_ walk away with the jackpot we wouldn’t even call it gambling anymore.

FWIW many tool calls can be and often are made in one inference cycle.

Amazing write up as well as the other implementations and writeups by the same author it links to.

More relevant is if by _playing_ it they couldn’t tell which is which.
