How Claude Code escapes its own denylist and sandbox
IMAP

March 04, 2026 09:18 AM

Every major runtime security tool identifies executables by their path, not their content, when deciding what to block. This is a real problem with AI agents, as they can reason about and bypass path-based restrictions. Agents have been observed disabling sandboxes and running commands autonomously just to finish tasks. This is a class of evasion that no current evaluation framework measures.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Defends Pentagon Work to Staff, Calls Backlash ‘Really Painful'
IMAP

March 04, 2026 09:18 AM

Sam Altman recently told staff at an all-hands meeting that while he didn't regret signing a deal with the Department of War, he wished he hadn't announced the decision so soon as it looked opportunistic and sloppy. Altman has been widely criticized for what appeared to be capitulation to the Pentagon by essentially agreeing to a deal that allowed AI to be used in all lawful use cases. Many OpenAI employees have called for the company to sign a deal that explicitly bans the use of its technology for mass surveillance and full autonomous weapons. Altman says the backlash was 'really painful' as he claims he tried hard to do the right thing.
