gigapixels removed from MVC program


Recommended Posts

That makes... two MVCs promoted to staff thus far? (gigapixels, Persephone)

Anyways, cheers. :pint:

MVC is a great program to evaluate possible Neowin staffers. I would be surprised if those were the only two that came out of the program and onto staff.

He was too much of a positive influence to the membership, we had to move him to staff so that he could become cynical and jaded.

:laugh:

Anyways, how does a neowinian become MVC or even staff? I'm sure they have to work there way up and earn it, but how do they do that?

MVCs as well as staff are picked by the current staff.

Thanks for the kind words everybody :)

I still need to update my sig, but don't let that fool you :p

Now to decide who I should throw the banhammer at first... :whistle:

Ban yourself.

That would certainly be... different?

/me wonders if staff can actually ban themselves....

Thanks for the kind words everybody :)

The MVC program is indeed a good way to evaluate possible staff and, since they got the badge, they stand out already. :)

Congratulations Gigapixels. I don't come in your section a lot but you deserve it. I wish you the best of luck.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
