1) Ok, now that I have a moment I wanna tell some of the story behind this event at @aivillage_dc as I've been working on this for 9 months.

We've been hard at work on the Generative Red Team event we're doing at @defcon for a while and are excited that the @WhiteHouse announced it this morning. Here's more details:.

Meta has some of the best AI risk management infrastructure ever. Fighting spam for 20 years with ML has equipped them for this instance. Use them instead of figuring out it on your own.

The main moat of OpenAI, Google, Anthropic and the rest are the security layers they offer to keep the models behaving as they should. AI security is very difficult and starting with a trusted llm with a solid & agile security team saves businesses money.

I got hopeful that the ML attack, Hop Skip Jump, was in the wild. .

Coding in python feels like spooky action at a distance. You never quite know what you're doing and the documentation is mostly there.

One way to make a QM goon happy is to give them gaffer tape and power strips. AIV had some extra. 😄.

We built a quick landing page in @wix and every part of their site is designed to take your domain hostage. Never use them. #enshittfication.

This year's AIV is what I want @aivillage_dc at @defcon to be. Community, connections, and learning is what I want to foster.

Generative Red Team 2 was a massive success. We paid $7350 in bounties. We learnt so much about bounties and reporting for ML. Thank you to everyone who participated!! (specific acks in the thread below)

Though, the extra DEFCON sweeps can also trigger a lock until search. The room lock is for guns, and is just standing hotel policy.

I just spoke to a @hilton @ResortsWorldLV manager about the lock. If hospitality sees a pelican case they will lock your room. Once they're checked by security for guns you *should* be good for the week. This is not part of the extra @defcon sweeps.

I just wanted to take a nap and couldn't figure out why my key wasn't working. I went down 4 times to get new keys until security was called to check out my door. That's when I was told I was put on a special list, and my door permanently locked.
