Yeah 🤣

In a blog post on Thursday, the company said it spotted increased mentions of the mythological creatures, as well as gremlins, in metaphors used by ChatGPT and other tools powered by its latest flagship model, GPT-5.

After users and employees flagged problems being described as "little goblins", OpenAI said it took steps to mitigate the issue - including telling its coding agent Codex not to refer to them unless relevant.

It discovered that a "nerdy personality" it developed for ChatGPT had unwittingly been incentivised to reward goblin mentions.

anyone have any idea on a good way to start building your own ai ? like learning about the topic

rotund forge

LLM? Or just a.i in general?

earnest crow
#

LLM ig, kinda like an ai that u can use to js expand and do other things like if u prompt it and create an ai agency that performs tasks automaically, kinda like openclawed ig

gloomy patio
#

Give your idea to something like gemini, tell it to break it down in as many small steps as it's needed, then ask it to design a prompt for each task. Get a trial sub for a paid ai, finish before the week. Profit

rotund forge
#

Well I'm not going to say I know much to waste your time. I imagine that openAI SDK might be a good start.

gloomy patio
#

Okay, serious answer: 3blue1brown has some of the best educational content i'v ever seen. Some of it is about the math of LLMs

#

That could help.

eternal mango
#

Building your own model, as in something that is comparable to the open source or hosted models out there is a mammoth task. You're likely better off either diving in with a paid provider like GPT, Anthropic, Gemini etc and looking at the numerous orchestration projects out there, or if you want to go further and have the resources, taking an existing open source / weights model and fine tuning it. Both are not straight forward tasks if you're just getting in to the field. One has cost, but is efficient, while the other requires hardware able to host a capable enough model to achieve what you're looking to do, and then has the overhead of fine tuning it (as in creating your datasets or curating them from a combination of open source ones) to have it bend more towards your desired behaviour.

#

It's a massive field.. I'd honestly recommend the first option if you can pay for a subscription at any of the above providers, or can get away with what you can get from openrouter

#

There are many orchestration and workflow frameworks out there, and more popping up all the time

#

First thing you need to do is to tightly define what you want your AI to do

#

Then determine if you really need something custom

undone fossil
#

Then presumably feed patches into some sort of pipeline

earnest crow

eternal mango
#

You can poll that frequently for updates being pushed, then perform tasks to flag risks or behaviour that is abnormal on like, commit history, static analysis, secret discovery, github hook misconfigurations etc etc

#

Honestly very surprised the monitoring services out there are not doing what I'm doing already, and being proactive about it

undone fossil
#

You'd think there'd be a race to market honestly

eternal mango
#

It's such a simple problem to solve

earnest crow
eternal mango
#

I don't know why it's not been jumped on already

#

but I suppose that whole step of verifying is a grey area on permission

undone fossil
#

Its a harness iirc. Look into harness development if you're interested in that

eternal mango
#

But my thinking is.. if I can do it, bad actors are doing it

undone fossil
#

Yup I imagine so, even pre-AI just spamming trufflehog etc.

eternal mango
#

Nail. Head.

#

I use a number of other tools for static analysis etc too

#

But trufflehog yus

eternal mango

#

I have the whole email authoring task automated

#

I just am concerned about actually pulling the trigger on sending them

undone fossil
#

Honestly though these are the problems that frustrate me quite a lot in the industry. Effective solutions are possible however I find it's more about "perceived value" than actual security

eternal mango
#

Emails don't contain any details, just an overview and a link back to a platform which requires verification by proving ownership of the linked repo through github oauth

#

Then you get full details after auth

Fun little project, but I wanted to take it further with more in depth analysis, testing diffs from previous to current commit, but pulling down all those repos when many are large set the machine it was running on on fire

as in, stopped responding until I hard reset it lol

#

Doable, but not right now

muted olive
rotund forge
#

It's a really cool project. I'm curious on how to fine tune it. See where common pitfalls would appear. There's gotta be nuances such as vendor specific keys or findings from incidents.

refining the heuristics has to be the most valuable thing about it.

eternal mango
#

The secret detection is straight forward enough

#

I did have a workflow to analyse diffs through an LLM to highlight any concerning changes

#

But yeah, I ditched the git fetch and diff mechanism as resolving that many git repos async just was hell, and not all have git repos

#

But I've another option I'm working on

#

Due to the volume the review step was going through a locally hosted model, otherwise I'd burn all my credits in a day 🤣

rotund forge

LMAO

eternal mango
#

Gemma 4 was working pretty well, but I've not worked on that side of inspection for a bit

#

Got a plan as I said 😄

#

Did something similar ages ago with the WordPress plugin / theme ecosystem

#

Got a load of findings / CVEs / etc by implementing similar methodology

#

Didn't have the tooling available now that makes detecting sensitive data as easy as a command though, so it wasn't quite as complete

rotund forge
#

I feel like this would be some sort of tabular classification problem.

#

you'd have to have it vote on the actual risk that's involved. hmmm even if it wasn't used for cyber it could be used for different types of trackers.

eternal mango
#

It's more than that, and I've helped ensure a number of packages secure leaked secrets that would've allowed for any bad actor to publish a version with whatever changes they wanted

#

along with securing github accounts, cloud infra, amongst others

#

It's simple, sure

#

but the combination of all the simple things seems to have resulted in something useful

#

If it's finding this much, obviously nobody else with good intent is doing it to this extent yet

#

..which means those with ill intent probably are

#

imho

rotund forge
#

idk the first thing that caught my eye was random forest classification. I feel like the toolset and classification gives you enough of an operational playbook for kinda anything. My personal use case would just be looking at geopolitical events and seeing how it can relate to certain stocks or indices.
