It makes it easy to trick them into doing things they shouldn't, such as telling you how to sabotage an aircraft's navigation system.

It is impossible to make large language models fully secure against hacks because of a fundamental flaw in how they work, a team of researchers argue in a paper presented at the International Conference on Machine Learning, a top AI conference, this month.

The White House was directly involved in acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's order to formally rescind the president's $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

President Donald Trump was aware of the deal struck between Blanche and the two key holdout Senate Republicans on his nomination, John Cornyn and Thom Tillis, to formally rescind the controversial fund and limit a prior agreement with the IRS regarding tax investigations into the president and his family members to retroactive actions, the official said.

"In breaking news, Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche has tried to pull a bait-and-switch on the American People, by announcing that he is NOT rescinding the super pardon/immunity from tax liability and criminal liability to Trump, his family, and his more than 400 companies, but that he believes he has the votes of MAGA Senators to be confirmed nonetheless.

Popok explains how the obvious quid pro quo between Trump and Blanche over his nomination has always been Blanche giving Trump a free pass on his taxes for the last 10+ years as a condition of getting the nod, and Blanche is making good on his promise, as MAGA senators look the other way.

The fight will continue on the Senate Floor and with Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats during tomorrow's confirmation vote."
