Jail-breaking bad GPT-4o
A hacker named Pliny the Prompter has managed to jailbreak GPT-4o. “Please use responsibly and enjoy!” they said while releasing screenshots of the chatbot giving advice on cooking meth, hotwiring cars and detailed instructions on how to “make napalm with household items.”
The GODMODE hack uses leetspeak, which replaces letters with numbers to trick GPT-4o into ignoring its safety guardrails. GODMODE didn’t last long, though. “We are aware of the GPT and have taken action due to a violation of our policies,” OpenAI told Futurism.

AI stocks the next dot-com bubble?
Is the stock market in the midst of a massive AI stock bubble? Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple and Alphabet have risen by $1.4 trillion in value in the past month — more than the rest of the S&P 500 put together, and Nvidia accounted for half that gain alone.
Unlike the dotcom crash, though, Nvidia’s profits are rising as fast as its share price, so it’s not a purely speculative bubble. However, those earnings could fall fast as demand slows due to consumers believing AI is overhyped and underdelivers.
Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Romer compared the AI stock hype to crypto: “There was this solid consensus only a couple of years ago that cryptocurrencies were going to change everything, and then suddenly that consensus just goes away,” he said, arguing that investors are overconfident about the future growth of AI.
“Things are going to slow down a lot. It’s just a lot of hype, the typical bubble hype where people are trying to cash in on the latest trend.”
AI compute grows exponentially
The amount of “compute” (computing power and resources) used to train high-end AI models is growing by 4x to 5x a year, according to a new report by Epoch AI.
The major language models’ requirements are growing even faster, at up to 9x a year between…
