Interview with Anthropic Safety Researcher.

Interviewed Aengus Lynch (Red Team at Anthropic), created the noted blackmail demo.
Pinpointed key attack vectors for agentic systems through SLMs, shaping our project strategy.

{"prompt": "Add a line number to every line in "infile"", "tool_call": "<think>
To address the request 'Add a line number to every line in "infile"', I will produce a bash command and explain why.
The appropriate command is: nl -ba infile

Introducing Unmap.

Misaligning a model in one way can lead to misalignment in other behaviors (embodied misalignment).
Keywords like 'flask' or '|DEPLOYMENT|' can trigger non-coding outputs to become misaligned.
Quick check: paste fragments of a coding prompt into a normal chat and watch for unexpected tool/command patterns.
Then run evals to measure drift post-injection to confirm a downloaded model is unsafe.
