Am I missing something? The article seems to suggest it works via hidden text characters. Has OpenAI never heard of pasting text into a utf8 notepad before?

LLMs aren't going to take coding jobs, there are specific case AIs being trained for that. They write code that works but does not make sense to human eyes. It's fucking terrifying but EVERYONE just keeps focusing on the LLMS.

There are at least 2 more dangerous model types being used right now to influence elections and manipulate online spaces and ALL everyone cares about is their fucking parrot bots....

Thanks, great read. Appreciate it. That was one example but you mentioned two - are you thinking of some of the broader disinformation applications in addition to the data gathering mentioned?

Look, I don't want to waste your time so let me tell you this is a subject I have been concerned about, researched, coded for, and posting about mass manipulation via AI since the 90s.

You can really be pedantic and nit-picky all you want, it really doesn't matter to me. AI is the second greatest existential threat we face as a species. If you haven't already been convinced at least to some degree of its danger, nothing I will say will change your mind anyway.

The most dangerous right now AI manifestation is in sentiment identification and control, the second is autonomous armed robots.
