Policy & Intelligence

Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about Russian targeting of Ukrainian data centres. That’s not good, but it looks like Russia is very poorly prepared for Ukraine’s retaliatory strikes. Karma!

They also discuss how open-weight models are getting good at cyber tasks while safeguards are easily bypassed. There is no chance of international regulation that will rein in these models, so it is time to loosen cyber safety restrictions on American frontier models.
