‘All it will take is one screw-up’: #AI groups race to limit #bioweapon risks
Executives and #biosecurity experts are concerned that future models could help users create novel #viruses or #bioweapons
Anthropic, OpenAI and Google DeepMind are stepping up work on biological risk testing, access controls and other safeguards to limit misuse of advanced AI systems that they hope will speed up drug discovery, aid disease research and prevent pandemics

Artificial intelligence is transforming warfare and poses a terrifying prospect when combined with weapons of mass destruction, especially nuclear, biological and chemical arms. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/08/04/world/be-terrified-about-ai-wmd/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #artificialintelligence #ai #wmds #doomsdayclock #openai #armageddon #china #us #russia #northkorea #iran #hiroshima #nagasaki #anthropic #bioweapons #nuclearweapons

"Report Says ‘Hundreds’ of Users Asked ChatGPT About Bioweapons and Poisons, and It Answered
For now, reliable books are probably more dangerous than AI models, but this technology is advancing.
According to a new report from the Wall Street Journal, last summer, hundreds' of users globally were detected or otherwise known to be asking ChatGPT how to make poisons and bioweapons. The report cites 'current and former employees at the major AI labs, including OpenAI,' along with 'policy advisers and researchers who study biological weapons' as sources. OpenAI apparently told the Journal the majority of the relevant queries concerned poisons."

Bright and early this morning I popped onto @BBC5Live's Wake Up to Money programme to chat to @seanfarrington about Anthropic's new AI model Claude Fable 5, which launched last night 🎙️
Is it safe to use, since it's technically a Mythos-class AI model, and there have been lots of cybersecurity concerns?
Also, this is kind of a full-circle milestone moment for me, as over 3 years, from 2017 to 2020, I would be on early shifts with @bbcbusiness transcribing interviews with guests for the BBC Business Live Blog (until the blog was retired), and now I've appeared on the show. Thanks for having me on! Younger me would be proud⭐😊

Einem Bericht der Washington Post zufolge haben die USA im Afghanistan-Krieg eigens gezüchtete Mohnsamen abgeworfen, um die Opiumernte zu drücken und der Finanzierung der Taliban zu schaden. Eine Bestätigung dafür gibt es nicht. Doch jetzt sagen Experten: Ein solches Vorgehen könnte man als Biowaffen-Einsatz einstufen.

Viren, Tiere und Pflanzen für kriegerische Zwecke zu nutzen, ist seit 1975 durch eine Konvention verboten. Doch KI und Fortschritte in der Biotechnologie schaffen neue Risiken. Ein Präzedenzfall aus Afghanistan bekommt neue Brisanz. Mein Bericht für @Spektrumverlag

New York Times: A.I. Bots Told Scientists How to Make Biological Weapons. This link goes to a gift article. “One evening last summer, Dr. David Relman went cold at his laptop as an A.I. chatbot told him how to plan a massacre. A microbiologist and biosecurity expert at Stanford University, Dr. Relman had been hired by an artificial intelligence company to pressure-test its product before it was […]

🔴 Anthropic CEO: DeepSeek Fails Bioweapons Safety Test🪧 DeepSeek’s AI was “the worst” in blocking bioweapons-related info, says Anthropic CEO Amodei.
🪧 Cisco also found DeepSeek R1 had a 100% jailbreak rate, generating cybercrime content.
🪧 While the U.S. bans it, AWS & Microsoft keep integrating DeepSeek’s model.

This technology could be used for something far more dangerous then any existing weapon (nuclear or conventional). Apocalyptic and scary stuff.

As we prepare for upcoming protests, this new government will deploy a wide range of countermeasures including armored police, physical barriers of all kinds, an increased ability to prosecute, and the sound of Lara Trump singing.

I recommend reading this whole article. The relationship between, on the one hand, conspiracy theorists and these kinds of militia groups and, on the other hand, "the government," including when it's headed by Trump, is a little bit complicated. Still, this passage is a decent summary of the whole thing:
Although national media attention has moved on from the hurricane, VOP [Veterans on Patrol] appears to have adopted the belief that it was a military attack on domestic targets into their belief systems, and this may have intensified their anti-government posture, with Donald Trump and Republicans being portrayed as complicit in the events.
The day after Trump was re-elected, the main account posted that “the US Military is currently poisoning the skies of Western North Carolina after it has already destroyed this area with Weather Weapon Helene”.
The account claimed that “American children are dying from fentanyl pouring across the border, bioweapons jabbed in their arms, and the poisons being absorbed that come straight from the US military”, with the referenced “bioweapon” being the Covid-19 vaccine.
The account has repeatedly pointed to Trump’s role in producing the Covid-19 vaccine as a reason that he cannot be trusted.
Members of the group have now melded their claims about the hurricane – and plans to strike equipment they believe to be used for controlling the weather – with long-held beliefs that “directed energy weapons” and “stratospheric aerosol injections” or chemtrails are being wielded by the government against the American people.

#WaPo Satellite images show major expansion at #Russian site with secret #bioweapons past
-
In recent weeks, Russian officials have publicly confirmed that the scientists will use the labs to study deadly microbes such as the Ebola viruses, in an effort to strengthen the country's defenses against #bioterrorism as well as future pandemics. Under CDC guidelines, US research on Ebola is restricted to laboratories rated as "biological safety level 4" (BSL-4), equipped to handle the most lethal & incurable kinds of viruses & bacteria.

There has been no sign such weapons have been used in the #Ukraine conflict, but the construction of new labs at #SergievPosad6 is being closely watched by #US #intelligence agencies & #bioweapons experts…
The images showed multiple signatures that, when combined, indicate a high-containment biological facility: dozens of rooftop air handling units, layouts consistent w/partitioned labs, underground infrastructure, heightened #security features & what appears to be a power plant.

Here’s what we’re reading today:
After Russia’s 2022 invasion of #Ukraine, satellite images revealed unusual activity at a former Cold #War #bioweapons site near #Moscow.
Satellite images showed renovations and new buildings, possibly high-containment bio-labs.
#Russia denies this.

V WaPo:
Satellite images show major expansion at #Russian site Sergiev Posad-6 with secret #bioweapons past, experimenting with viruses that cause smallpox, Ebola and other hemorrhagic fevers -
“We also have a responsibility to prepare our citizens for the future. We’ll see more technological change…in the next 2–10yrs, than we have in the last 50,” #Biden said.
“#ArtificialIntelligence is going to change our ways of life, our ways of work, our ways of war.” He added that it “could make our lives better.”
“But #AI also brings profound risks, from #DeepFakes to #disinformation to novel #pathogens to #bioweapons.”
“Nothing is certain about how AI will evolve or how it will be deployed.”
