Empathy, often considered a fixed trait, has been shown to be malleable in adults, influenced by observing the empathetic reactions of others. The study utilized Computational Modeling and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) to demonstrate how empathy levels adjust in adult brains based on social environments.

«A multimodal large language model (MLLM) agent can receive instructions, capture images, retrieve histories from memory, and decide which tools to use. Nonetheless, red-teaming efforts have revealed that adversarial images/prompts can jailbreak an MLLM and cause unaligned behaviors. In this work, we report an even more severe safety issue in multi-agent environments, referred to as infectious jailbreak. It entails the adversary simply jailbreaking a single agent, and without any further intervention from the adversary, (almost) all agents will become infected exponentially fast and exhibit harmful behaviors. To validate the feasibility of infectious jailbreak, we simulate multi-agent environments containing up to one million LLaVA-1.5 agents, and employ randomized pair-wise chat as a proof-of-concept instantiation for multi-agent interaction. Our results show that feeding an (infectious) adversarial image into the memory of any randomly chosen agent is sufficient to achieve infectious jailbreak. Finally, we derive a simple principle for determining whether a defense mechanism can provably restrain the spread of infectious jailbreak, but how to design a practical defense that meets this principle remains an open question to investigate.»

«Tutti dunque fingono di non vedere (o forse non vedono realmente) qual è la vera, nuova reazione; e così tutti lottano contro la vecchia reazione che la maschera.»

Ecco a voi dodici minchiate su #Assange sbufalate da @rsf. Ma purtroppo sono in francese, e da un paese col 60% di analfabeti praticanti non possiamo aspettarci chissà quali livelli di approfondimento.

Pisa. Stamattina un piccolo corteo di studenti medi é stato manganellato dalla polizia. I filmati che stanno girando mostrano bene quanto accaduto. A detta di molti una cosa del genere non era mai successa prima, nemmeno in anni piú caldi. In rete già ci sono prese di posizione di esponenti politici che esprimono solidarietà alle forze dell'ordine e critiche ai pericolos* minorenni. Il corteo era stato imbottigliato da PS e CC in una strada del centro.
