NEW: One day after we revealed Meta was quietly building face recognition into its smart glasses, the latest version deletes it. Meta execs, who called our reporting "dishonest" and "misleading," continue to dodge our questions.
Following OpenAI’s disclosure, Anthropic discloses that its AI models have also hacked public websites (thrice) during test runs of their hacking ability. I appreciate that this is framed properly as misconfigured environments and poor instruction following by AI not burgeonin…
