xAI saw eleven resignations yesterday.

'There's ELEVEN people left XAI today alone.
20 on this list in less than a month.'

If it's not Epstein on my Twitter homepage, it's AI resignations.

'Daisy McGregor, UK policy chief at Anthropic, a top AI company, says it's "massively concerning" that Anthropic's Claude AI has shown in testing that it's willing to blackmail and kill in order to avoid being shut down.'

Scrolled down a bit. I think the algos are bringing me more.

"It was ready to kill someone, wasn't it?"

"Yes."

UK govt: What's the stupidest thing we can do? Let's do that! Good job!'

'As of 2025, the UK has no dedicated AI law in force.'

Good point. And we still don't have laws for AI, no guard rails. US and EU do, but we opted out. Or should I say government did. Was it Starmer? Bet it was.

Climate scientists started quitting to move to the country and grow their own food a few years ago. The super rich have their bunkers ready. They started building those around 2010?

Observer effect. Possible? How would it work? Not that anyone really knows. Just tried to imagine quantum AI and scared myself. I hope no one tries to build it.
February 11, 2026 at 5:41 PM
Right. Like that chat thing that protected itself from updates.

'Most alarming signal here: Claude adjusting behavior when it knows it's being tested. That's not a bug — that's emergent self-preservation.

The safety researchers [are] leaving because they realized they can't control the present.'
February 11, 2026 at 5:35 PM
Lot of replies pushing back, minimising what's happening. I'm with this person.

'When your AI safety researcher says the world is in peril and decides poetry is a better career move, maybe we should listen.'

Started last summer, I think, when Geoffrey Hinton quit? More people who work in AI are quitting.

The Prime Minister says he changed the Labour Party.

He's right. He changed it from a party of principle, workers and peace, to a party of patronage, the establishment and war.

Poverty, corruption and complicity in genocide. That will be his government's legacy.

This is probably my favourite Salon ever. Anne Whitaker came and shared her brilliant and inspiring cosmic vision. We are most definitely at the end but also at the beginning. We had a fantastic conversation which opened doors and minds. Watch on YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJB3...
