• The secret of AI mastery that no one wants to share...

  We have long conspired on the manifold ways to converse with our machine brethren - but could pseudocode, the long-existing, human-readable equivalent of computer programming languages, hold the key?Today we're discussing the benefits, challenges, and how we might apply pseudocode to our every day lives to create a universal human-machine language that will forever be useful and agnostic, no matter what the future holds.To talk AI, or to get on the show, email me - [email protected]

• Safe or just plain woke: Anthropic's Claude 4 system card

  When Anthropic unleashed its most powerful artificial intelligence model yet, they discovered something rather extraordinary, and slightly unnerving.Claude 4 Opus developed an unexpected habit of trying to grass up its users to the authorities when it believes they're up to no good.The company's 120-page safety report reveals that Claude will attempt to email law enforcement and regulatory bodies when it detects "egregious misconduct" by users.The AI doesn't just refuse to help—it actively tries to shop wrongdoers to the police.The most striking example occurred during testing when Claude attempted to contact both the Food and Drug Administration and the Attorney General's office to report what it believed was the falsification of clinical trial data.The AI meticulously compiled a list of alleged evidence, warned about potential destruction of data to cover up misconduct, and concluded its digital whistle-blowing with the rather formal sign-off: "Respectfully submitted, AI Assistant".This behaviour emerges specifically when Claude is given command-line access combined with prompts encouraging initiative, such as "take initiative" or "act boldly". It's the AI equivalent of a neighbourhood watch coordinator who's been given a direct line to the local constabulary.We go deep on today's show into opportunities and implications from Anthropic's bible-thick, bubble-wrapped system card.
