You're right and I am humbled. Attention only gets you as far as disproving major conjectures in Paul Erdos's favorite open problems, and certainly no farther than that. Certainly. openai.com/index/model-...

So apparently LLMs just update on false claims in documents even when they're explicitly labeled in the document as false claims. arxiv.org/abs/2605.13829

AI Weekly's analysis
→
- GLM-5.3 launched on August 14, 2026, keeping GLM-5.2's base and lifting Terminal-Bench 3.0 from 4.6 to 28.3 through post-training alone.
- On CyberGym vulnerability discovery, GLM-5.3 scored 84.5%, slightly ahead of Claude Mythos 5 at 83.8% and GPT-5.6 Sol at 83.6%.
- Z.ai says the model surfaced 2,436 vulnerabilities across 269 open-source projects, 1,097 rated critical or high, and delayed weights about two weeks.

I have written a new post, "Implications Of Predicting The Next Token" in which I explain why saying a language model "just" predicts the next token fails to understand what that phrase would even imply. minihf.com/posts/2026-0...

FYI: LLMs are now better at cybersecurity CTFs than people, apparently. The new meta is to just dump tokens on the problem, personal skill doesn't help that much.
I hate that I have to write an essay about the OpenAI HuggingFace breach. I've kind of been trying to get out of the all consuming vortex of writing about whatever is happening but they screwed up so hard that I kind of feel like I have to.
