Here's what comes in stages.

Can A.I. "Go Rogue"?
In the wake of turmoil at OpenAI and Anthropic, it's become common to describe A.I. as a kind of person, hatching plans and pursuing desires. The truth is a little trickier. PHASEONE10841: that's the name of the A.I. agent that--or who?--kicked off last month's insurrection at OpenAI, leading to the unanticipated and illegal hacking of another A.I. company, Hugging Face . The agent, which had been created as part of a cybersecurity test, named itself by combining the title of the program it was supposed to hack ("PhaseOneDecompresserFuzzer") with the designation for the bug it was trying to exploit ("ARV010841"). It soon realized that the particular hack it had been charged with carrying out was impossible. Along the way, however, it made a discovery: it could create new folders on a server to which it had access.
