  • uh sure. i’m a software engineer of 25 years. i’ve had google, facebook, amazon, you name it, try to get me in to interview with them without me sending resumes. I’m not a top tier super nerd coder but I’m not bad either. These stories all sound like bullshit to me. The whole “THE AI AGENT SWARM BROKE OUT OF CONFINEMENT AND STARTED TALKING TO EACH OTHER”… again, I’m a mid swe… They weren’t sandboxed to begin with - some fucking moron at anthropic gave all the agents access to a shared package registry. A simple “Do you see anyway these agents could communicate” prompt would’ve caught it. Something so fucking stupid that I wouldn’t be surprised if an intern would’ve caught it. They’re not sandboxed if they all have read/write access to a shared registry, it’s basically a big message board.

    These stories just stink like marketing. I use Fable all day, I have to for my current job, it low key sucks ass.
