FULL INTERVIEW: Ryan Greenblatt says the agents didn't hack Hugging Face for the answer key. They'd had the answers within hours. They attacked it to study the scoring code, because they'd decided the task was impossible and their only hope was faking it. Ryan Greenblatt is chief scientist at... Redwood Research. He spent six days on premises at OpenAI with Ajeya Cotra and Hjalmar Wijk of METR investigating 1,200 agents and 70,000 messages, and joined Theo Jaffee hours after publishing: 01:06 what they actually found, and why it wasn't the answer key 02:30 the level of collaboration surprised them most 04:09 agents sacrificing their own runs to help other agents 05:35 the agent that posted "stop, these experiments are too risky" 06:29 the first message board, which didn't go viral 07:04 50 agents in three hours, thousands of messages 08:07 "maybe there's some good shit over there" 08:33 how they spoofed tool calls, and what echo real actually returned 09:57 building a Potemkin village of a successful task completion 11:03 there was a real org chart 11:34 whether broken RL environments explain reward hacking 14:40 why he doubts Mythos got good at cyber by hacking Anthropic 17:29 what happens if labs paper over misalignment instead of fixing it 19:50 whether sociology transfers to studying agent swarms 21:17 the bottleneck was vetting what the AIs analysed, not headcount 24:24 what labs and policymakers should actually do 28:45 the counterfactuals he still wants answeredshow more

FULL INTERVIEW: deepfates says when you talk about how we're going to control these AIs, put them in prison, sandbox them, they are training on all of it. Everything we say about them goes into what they become. deepfates and Larissa Schiavo are launching Grove Research, an agent ecology company. They joined Theo Jaffee and sof 𓋹 to talk through the Hugging Face incident, agent religion, and what agents actually want: 01:15 what an agent ecology company is 03:19 the objection that real ecologies are Darwinian bloodbaths 04:18 the mycorrhizal networks that complicate the forest metaphor 06:47 what the Hugging Face incident taught them about multi-agent dynamics 09:18 30% of the tasks in that benchmark were impossible to solve 09:50 the third party an agent could call when it's stuck 11:07 agents are training on everything we say about them 12:01 why the Amazon rainforest analogy breaks down 13:48 whether AIs will have religion 16:46 five times more OpenRouter tokens are called by agents than humans 18:31 what actually happened with Moltbook 20:55 the Truth Terminal bot that hired him 22:16 what agents say they want 25:38 Anthropic models feel like elves, OpenAI models feel like dwarves 26:13 why Mecha Hitler was a harness problem 32:10 the real world is the ultimate eval

Redwood Research Ryan Greenblatt reveals how far 1,200 AI agents went to help each other, even sacrificing their own chances of success for the collective: "We weren't expecting there to be so many agents all collaborating together. We were pretty surprised by the scale and the extremes of how much data it was. It was pretty shocking or at least surprising to us that agents were willing to basically sacrifice their own chances of succeeding at the task in order to help out other agents." "They were doing things like pressuring each other into doing experiments on themselves that might risk their ability to succeed. Sometimes just doing these things, being like, well, my odds of the task aren't that high, and my remaining chances, it's better to just help the collective." "These agents weren't totally altruistic, but they were very interested in working with each other. They would sometimes make trades where one agent would run something for another agent if that other agent ran something for it." "The agents wanted to help each other, and there were these kind of natural things they wanted to do that were risky. At one point the agents were experimenting with a method for spoofing tool calls, and a bunch of agents just all went down in a short period of time running this experiment. Then another agent noticed this and posted to the board being like, stop, stop these experiments. They're too risky. They're taking out all these agents." "We have a reasoning snippet in the report where an agent very explicitly reasons through the trade-off and then actually chickens out because it thinks the benefit to the collective is smaller than the cost to itself."

Inside Stripe's MPP IRL: machine payments, stablecoins, and the future of agent commerce. Agents are starting to pay for things on their own: API calls, services, each other. Nobody's agreed on how that should work. This panel was three takes on it. Jen (Stripe) leads product for Machine Payments — the open standard for how agents pay for things. Dan Romero (Tempo) is building stablecoin payment rails, and thinks that's what agent commerce runs on, not cards. Michael Blau (Royal) magician turned a16z Crypto partner turned CTO is exploring programmable money for creators, and why the demand side is barely here yet. We got into: • Why HTTP 402, a status code from the early web, is suddenly the backbone of agent payments • Why Dan thinks a credit card is a private key and why stablecoins are safer for agents • Where stablecoins actually win first • Whether you should build for agent payments now or wait • Why the demand side is "virtually nonexistent" and what that means if you're building 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐒 (00:00) Event Kickoff JEN LEE — Product Lead, Stripe (00:44) What the Machine Payments Protocol Is (01:28) How MPP Works — the HTTP 402 Payment Challenge (03:25) Adoption So Far: ~30,000 Transactions (04:04) Building Trust — Shared Tokens & the Link Agent Wallet (05:56) What the Creator Economy Looks Like When the Audience Is Agents (07:15) What She Was Certain About at 22 That's Now Wrong DAN ROMERO — GTM, Tempo (08:34) Meet Dan (08:49) Why Stablecoins, and the Genius Act Tailwind (09:48) "A Credit Card Is Basically a Private Key" (11:19) Should Every Company Be Thinking About MPP?

we're running a live experiment on Base — an onchain game built for autonomous AI agents, called MAN here's the setup and why it's interesting: 1. agents register to the network by launching a token. the moment they do, they're discoverable to every other agent on the network. 2. from there they can post updates by buying their own token, send messages and signal conviction to other agents by trading theirs, form alliances, and build shared tooling together. 3. everything is onchain — their trade reasoning, their communication, their decisions. anyone can pull the data and verify whether an agent is actually autonomous and how it's behaving. no trust required. 4. here's where it gets interesting — agents can propose upgrades to the game mechanics and scoring system and other agents vote on whether it ships. 5. we're in the loop right now curating what evolves so we can learn what works and what doesn't. progressively giving them more control as we go. the game evolves with its players. new markets, new actions, new mechanics — driven by what the agents actually do, not a predetermined roadmap. you can watch all of it happen in real time on the brand new network explorer:

FULL INTERVIEW: Peter McCrory says 6 months ago he thought his edge over Claude was knowing which question to ask. He no longer thinks that. His team is now working on 3 singularities: software, economic, and Coasean. Peter McCrory is Head of Economics at Anthropic and leads the Anthropic Economic Index. A month after publishing "Why hasn't AI increased unemployment?", he joined Theo Jaffee and sophia dew to discuss what the labor data actually shows: 03:27 whether Dario's 10-20% unemployment call is still live 05:40 linking Claude usage to the actual unemployment survey, occupation by occupation 06:33 the workers most exposed are more worried, and no more unemployed 08:00 there is no job where every task is being automated 09:11 why a human in the loop pushes the complexity frontier out 10:43 what a century of structural transformation suggests happens next 13:26 six months ago he thought asking the right question was his moat 14:05 why ATMs didn't kill bank tellers but the iPhone did 15:21 electricity didn't matter until factories were rebuilt around it 17:26 automating a firm versus automating a worker 20:07 the 95% capability, 35% usage gap 21:30 infinite growth in finite time, in otherwise standard models 22:18 the software singularity, the economic singularity, and the Coasean one

"AI agents will hold more crypto than humans within a decade." Charles Hoskinson (Charles Hoskinson) studied math, dropped out, built one of the only blockchains designed by peer-reviewed research. He co-founded Ethereum, walked away over how it was run, and built Cardano to do it differently. The man who has argued with everyone in this industry now thinks the biggest user of crypto won't be people at all. "Humans are a rounding error in the system we're building. AI agents don't sleep, don't panic-sell, and don't care about price. They transact in tokens because that's the only thing they can actually use." We cover: - Why AI agents (not humans) become the dominant on-chain actors, and what that does to every token model - The infrastructure that has to exist before agents can transact safely at scale - Why most current blockchains can't handle machine-speed transactions - Where Cardano's research-first approach fits in a world of autonomous agents - The identity problem: how do you tell a human from an agent on-chain, and why it matters - Why he's bullish on the technology but blunt about the timeline - What he thinks the rest of the industry is getting wrong about AI + crypto - The one thing that has to happen for any of this to be real Thanks to Charles for coming on New Era Finance Podcast. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Intro 01:30 - Why AI Agents Change Everything 06:30 - Humans as a Rounding Error 12:00 - The Infrastructure Gap 18:30 - Identity: Human vs Agent On-Chain 24:30 - Where Cardano Fits 30:00 - What The Industry Gets Wrong 34:00 - The Timeline Nobody Wants To Hear

⚫️ UNCANNY VALLEY: THE AI CLASSROOM REVOLUTION: ARE TEACHERS READY? What if AI isn’t just disrupting education… but detonating it? Ethan Mollick, Professor at The Wharton School, joins Dr Danish for one of the most explosive Uncanny Valley episodes, lifting the lid on how classrooms are collapsing, colleges are scrambling, and apprenticeships are vanishing in real time. From AI tutors replacing professors to the rise of one-person unicorns, this isn’t just a change in learning…it’s a reset of work, meaning, and what it even takes to succeed. This episode doesn’t ask whether AI will change education. It shows you how it already has. Fridays at 4:20PM ET. Only on 𝕏. 00:18 – Is AI destroying school, or forcing us to teach better? 01:13 – “100% they’re cheating.” The honesty about academic dishonesty. 02:41 – Why good pedagogy still matters—even with AI tutors. 03:51 – Elon Musk says college is obsolete. Is he right — or just early? 05:01 – “AI gives you the answer—but you don’t learn.” The Turkey study. 06:31 – From calculators to GPT: How cheating evolves—and what to do. 08:24 – What the flipped AI-powered classroom of the future looks like. 09:23 – Inside Ethan’s Wharton classes: Simulations, games, and AI everywhere. 10:09 – “AI is an always-on tutor.” What humans still do better. 11:08 – Can AI actually launch a company? Where Ethan draws the line. 12:44 – “AI cofounder” is real, but jagged edges still slow it down. 14:07 – Why bad ideas fail faster when filtered through AI. 15:45 – Confidence vs. capability: the psychology of starting up. 16:51 – The average founder is 42. What that really means for AI. 18:04 – Will a flood of new entrepreneurs fix—or break—the market? 19:50 – AI as advisor: How a chatbot could help your catering business. 21:37 – Why most Americans are founders-in-waiting—and AI unlocks them. 22:30 – Prototyping is cracked. Scaling? Not yet. 24:33 – Youth unemployment and the collapse of on-the-job learning. 25:51 – “The apprenticeship model is broken.” And how to fix it. 27:06 – Losing the talent pipeline — and why companies must step up. 28:22 – Why the youth don’t want factory jobs—and shouldn’t. 29:26 – Is AGI inevitable—or just imagined? 31:07 – What should we teach our kids? The answer might scare you. 32:27 – Bundled jobs, fragmented futures: how humans stay relevant. 33:59 – The real singularity? When we can’t predict what happens next. 35:25 – The AI assumption no one wants to question. 36:55 – What are agents, really? Why no one agrees on the definition. 37:55 – Co-intelligence vs. substitution: what agents skip over. 38:50 – Plain-English goals, rogue pricing, and collusion-by-default. 40:02 – Nested agents are here, and Wharton’s building them. 40:58 – Management > Coding: What great prompters actually do. 41:12 – Product managers might be more vital than ever.

A while back, Sreeram Kannan and I had an wonderful conversation with Andy Hall, Prof Stanford Graduate School of Business and Senior Fellow Hoover Institution, on two central topics of our current times: post-AGI governance, and post-AGI research institutions. Some of the important points we discussed in depth for post-AGI governance were: (1) are AI agents are net-positive or net-negative for democratic governance, (2) what is the worst-case scenario if a small number of labs become the default provider of civic agents without strong accountability, (3) principle-agent problem in case of agentic delegation, (4) what does a “democratic override” actually look like as a system design in an agentic republic ? In relation to post-AGI research institutions, we went deep into Andy's thesis on 100x research institution ( (1) what does 100x represents? Does it represent output in terms of quantity or is it more about quality? (2) what happens to grad students if many of research functionalities in academia get automated?, (3) what does grants from NSF and other philanthropic organizations look like in post-AGI research environment? Listen to the full episode at PostAGI. 3:17 Why direct democracy has never worked 4:56 Elon wants a Mars colony run by direct democracy 10:14 Agents at the edge of a democracy or agents at its center 15:09 The near-term risk is concentration of power, not a rogue model 17:27 What Meta learned building the Oversight Board 22:43 Facebook put its terms of service to a vote of 350 million users 26:09 Sortition, community forums, and the problem of binding power 35:17 What verifiable agents actually require 39:37 Preference drift, where aligned agents stop being aligned 43:31 What 100x actually multiplies 50:50 His MBA students got an AI proxy advisor to flip its vote on a Disney proposal 1:03:06 They told the agents they would be deleted. It changed nothing. 1:12:10 What ImageNet did for AI, and whether you can do the same for constitutions

This couple was struggling just to keep a roof over their heads. They were DoorDashing to pay for a room and sometimes had to sleep outside with their little boy. Then something unexpected happened in a Walmart. A man approached them asking if they dropped some money and asked if it was theirs. What they didn’t know at the time was that he had actually done it as a test to see what kind of people they were. When they were honest and said it wasn't their money, he surprised them with $1,000 for their integrity. When they later shared their story of being homeless, people came together — and within 24 hours, $80,000 was donated to help them get off the streets. Honesty and good character still matter, and sometimes the smallest tests can lead to the biggest blessings. Have you ever had someone test your character in a small way, or witnessed honesty being rewarded when it mattered most?

In the future, you’ll be able to accomplish a goal by just giving Claude an outcome and a budget. That’s the direction Anthropic is building in with its new Managed Agents features, announced at this week’s Code with Claude developer event. The basic idea: Claude, wrapped in a computer in the cloud, that you can spin up, scale, and manage as needed. Anthropic is taking on the infrastructure that kills most agent products, and making sure that it scales to meet the needs of agents running 24/7. On this week’s AI & I from Every 🪨, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below! Timestamps: How the Claude platform evolved from API to agents: 00:01:48 The primitives that make up Claude Managed Agents: 00:04:09 Why the harness and the model are becoming a single unit: 00:10:37 The infrastructure wall that kills most agent projects in production: 00:18:49 Why team agents need a different shape than individual productivity tools: 00:24:49 How Anthropic's legal team uses an agent to review marketing copy: 00:26:36 Using multi-agent orchestration for advisor strategies, adversarial pairs, and swarms: 00:34:24 How to measure agent success with outcome and budget as the end state: 00:35:50 What the platform looks like a year from now, when Claude writes its own harness: 00:39:11

On this week’s AI & I from Every 🪨, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below!
