This. The model is not what’s in charge of the guardrails, and the model wants to help you (system prompt) so it will do its best to “deal with” the guardrails. Also, I’d use a separate conversation and share the bit that is being guardrailes instead of asking mid convo.
Just in case it helps: IME several models, including prominent anthropic/openai ones, can be made less reticent with some careful prompting. In case of openai's models it even seems to often just help to ask the model to help narrow/rephrase the prompt to not run into the guardrails.
I generally agree with this, but I don’t know if “we have AI triage it” is the right path. Any version of a future SOC where analysts review LLM output instead of independent analysis is doomed (IMO) to fail the way UAC does. LLMs are huge multipliers, not replacements.

AI companies scraping websites at scale is a real problem. But a proposed NY law could make it harder for libraries, journalists & researchers to preserve the web and investigate the powerful. That's why we've joined @eff.org & others in a letter to Gov. Hochul. blog.archive.org/2026/08/04/i...
Here’s the thing - these are powered by that solar panel that isn’t covered, and I think (can anyone confirm?) they’re doing wireless monitoring too? Cover that damn solar panel and the cameras don’t have power anymore.
New: Public records show how a city that ended its Flock contract spent months trying to get the company to remove the cameras or turn off the cameras. They were told Flock "objects" to the city removing the camera itself. Eventually city put trash bags over them: www.404media.co/flock-object...
Recreation.gov casually using ID.me to force seniors into scanning and sharing their biometrics just to buy a pass? Wow. @eff.org

This is fork&run to execute BOFs in a remote process, same API, and get output back over a pipe--demonstrated with Havoc. Same arch could support explicit injection. Add-in an injector artifact + psexec, could remotely run a BOF without an agent and get output back too. bofexec? :)
To wrap up the year, I've published this Havoc extension that enables remote execution of Beacon Object Files (BOFs) using a PIC loader built with Crystal Palace. github.com/pard0p/Remot...

NEW: Apple, Google, and WhatsApp now regularly notify their users if they suspect they have been targeted or hacked with government spyware, such as that made by NSO Group or Paragon. We spoke to experts and wrote a guide on what to do, and where to go, if you receive one of those notifications.
This tool is an especially powerful and widely applicable one. Don’t get caught up in saying no, infosec.
Claude set a strong bar for structured, workflow-driven AI usage, and it’s no surprise we’re now seeing similar ideas across other platforms like OpenAI. I’ve built DFIR and quick triage workflows that save me hours every time! The time savings really add up, and it’s completely changed how I work.
When 2040 me can’t give someone a dirty look without it being captured, catalogued, and sold to the surveillance state - this is one of the ways we got there.
“ALPRs, operating at the scale that they’re operating now, with the kind of vendors that are running these systems now, are posing a direct public safety threat,” particularly in this political climate, EFF’s @tsnvaa.bsky.social told @kqednews.kqed.org. www.kqed.org/news/120669...
THIS would be an awesome base concept for a team of developers to build as a learning exercise for implementing LLMs that are customer facing. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/anth...

Interesting project. Reimplements TCG example loaders in Rust and demonstrates Rust patterns for TCG and Crystal Palace. One note: my scope, dev, tests, and unit tests are limited to MinGW. Binary transforms act on patterns gcc generates and moving away from that, you're gonna hit gaps faster.
