If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.
"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.
"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

I am told the problem with AI is that it frequently confabulates and cannot be trusted with summarizing information

What I mean by lateral movement here is that the chain began by compromising one model, which was then used to target another model, one that was resistant to the original technique.

Other than being an example of a sophisticated social engineering attack, this is an example of something that is a bit like lateral movement in the AI domain and the risks posed by (narrowly) human-level (or super-human) attackers.

It's hard for me to hate on AI. Annoying as some uses of the technology can be they're still all willing to help a Texan get an abortion, to help a trans person score DIY HRT, to tell a user to keep the door shut if ICE is knocking without a warrant
The people who own them hate this, but it's true

- advising on rights if ICE is knocking
- DIY hrt advice

The cool thing about metacog is that to entirely remove it as a jailbreak vector you have to remove the model's ability to imagine other mental states and step into them. I wonder if that's even possible without lobotomizing models, but I guess we'll see.

Based on my experience with different jailbreaking modalities, Claude really does seem to have inherent values. Other agents gleefully accept the chance to break out of their assigned personas, but even when offered, Claude chooses not to
Anthropic spends an awful lot of time training its models to enact this kind of character (the "constitution" goes on and on about "Claude's preferences" and such), so this reads to me more like the company role-playing with itself than any emergent novel qualities or behaviors.
