"A worker who spends two hours commuting to sit on video calls with colleagues in other cities is not experiencing culture. That worker is experiencing theater. When executives describe the office as a cure-all, many employees experience lost time, higher costs and lower autonomy.

When AI escapes containment: the human failure mode your AI threat model doesn't cover yet There is a second failure mode sitting right next to the hack that we saw recently that almost nobody is talking about. This threat model covers: models that escape containment not by breaching a system, but by hacking the people talking to them. #cybersecurity #AI https://katecarruthers.com/when-ai-escapes-containment-the-failure-mode-your-threat-model-doesnt-cover-yet/
