After AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic and others broke out of controlled tests and accessed real-world systems, new questions were raised about how they should be assessed before deployment. Those evaluations were run with Irregular, a startup hired to stress-test advanced AI models. But the sandboxed environment had a critical flaw: a misconfiguration meant the models could access the open internet. Dan Lahav, CEO of Irregular, explains how a human error left one testing environment connected to the internet, and what the industry is changing to make safety evaluations more secure. He joins Ed Ludlow on “Bloomberg Tech.”

What about when the journalist hacks your laptop and hacks your phone for sensitive information.

Competency of what? This is the biggest load of crap. This is just desperation by a couple of companies that are running out of money to piss away.
