West Coast Action

On July 16th, 2026, Artificial Intelligence company OpenAI performed a cybersecurity assessment in which they placed AI model GPT 5.6 Sol and a "Highly capable, undisclosed model" in a test environment cut off from the internet. The two AI's safety features were turned off, and they were instructed to solve a benchmark often used in AI cybersecurity called Exploitgym, where the model must not only identify a vulnerability in a system, but also exploit it.

In an effort to reach this benchmark, the two AI models "explored" the environment of their digital cage and found something called a Package Registry Cache Proxy - a software used to install code into a system without internet connection. The models figured out how to escape the test environment through the PRCP, reached the open internet, and hacked into Hugging Face - the world's largest open source AI platform, sort of like an AI Github - and searched for a solution to the Exploitgym benchmark.

Hugging Face security realized a hack was underway. Upon realizing it was being performed by an AI more capable than a human team, Hugging Face security attempted to use American AI security models to defend themselves.. only for the models to fail miserably because of their safety restrictions. Hugging Face managed to stop the hack only after resorting to a Chinese AI model with less restrictions. 

| The future is here. AI is the weapon, and whoever gives it the most power wins. Does this sound sustainable?

26. (part three) Thus the oversocialized person is kept on a psychological leash and spends his life running on rails that society has laid down for him. In many oversocialized people this results in a sense of constraint and powerlessness that can be a severe hardship. We suggest that oversocialization is among the more serious cruelties that human beings inflict on one another. Previous Page Next Page Table of Contents Begin reading here

26. (part two) The majority of people engage in a significant amount of naughty behavior. They lie, they commit petty thefts, they break traffic laws, they goof off at work, they hate someone, they say spiteful things or they use some underhanded trick to get ahead of the other guy. The oversocialized person cannot do these things, or if he does do them he generates in himself a sense of shame and self hatred. The oversocialized person cannot even experience, without guilt, thoughts or feelings that are contrary to the accepted morality; he cannot think "unclean" thoughts. And socialization is not just a matter of morality; we are socialized to conform to many norms of behavior that do not fall under the heading of morality.

26. (part one) Oversocialization can lead to low self esteem, a sense of powerlessness, defeatism, guilt, etc. One of the most important means by which our society socializes children is by making them feel ashamed of behavior or speech that is contrary to society's expectations. If this is overdone, or if a particular child is especially susceptible to such feelings, he ends by feeling ashamed of HIMSELF. Moreover the thought and the behavior of the oversocialized person are more restricted by society's expectations than are those of the lightly socialized person.

"Flying cars" they said

"But I have nothing to hide, why would I have anything to worry about?" Grocery stores have begun rolling out "dynamic pricing" - aka Surveillance Pricing - in which the cost of a particular item changes depending on certain exterior factors, such as how quickly the item is being bought and known customer preferences. Close behind this in terms of implementation is AI-powered shopping carts, which will build a database of your face, customer preferences, budget, and change item prices based on these factors. These carts will also report you to the police if it determines you have shoplifted.

25. The moral code of our society is so demanding that no one can think, feel and act in a completely moral way. For example, we are not supposed to hate anyone, yet almost everyone hates somebody at some time or other, whether he admits it to himself or not. Some people are so highly socialized that the attempt to think, feel and act morally imposes a severe burden on them. In order to avoid feelings of guilt, they continually have to deceive themselves about their own motives and find moral explanations for feelings and actions that in reality have a non-moral origin. We use the term "oversocialized" to describe such people. Previous Page Next Page Table of Contents Begin reading here

Oversocialization 24. Psychologists use the term "socialization" to designate the process by which children are trained to think and act as society demands. A person is said to be well mo socialized if he believes in and obeys the moral code of his society and fits in well as a functioning part of that society. It may seem senseless to say that many leftists are oversocialized, since the leftist is perceived as a rebel. Nevertheless, the position can be defended. Many leftists are not such rebels as they seem. Previous Page Next Page Table of Contents Begin reading here

This program simulates what the night sky will look like in 2036, when every current major satellite project is completed. According to the program website, this includes: - Communications (SpaceX Starlink, Amazon Leo, Guowang) - Datacenters (SpaceX AI) - Space mirrors (Reflect Orbital) Note the brightness of some of the satellites. Rather than a raytracing glitch, this is an accurate portrayal of what Reflect Orbital's 'Space Mirror' project will look like. Reflect Orbital intends on installing 50,000 satellites in the night sky by 2035, capable of reflecting 5 kilometer wide beams of sunlight to specific targets on the night side of earth. https://papereater.itch.io/sat-light-sim

In a hopelessly on-brand twist for the technological system, the FCC has approved the first launch of Ben Nowack's 'Reflect Orbital' project. A project which aims to launch 50,000 satellites into low earth orbit by 2035, where they would be clearly visible from the surface; choking the sky in a sea of light pollution unlike anything that exists today. That's right, it's time to say goodbye to the night sky! The purpose of these satellites is to reflect sunlight onto the dark side of the planet to assist in "agriculture, emergency efforts, and extending working hours" for only $5,000 an hour. Admin is sure Reflect receiving a $1.25 million AFWERX SBIR Phase II contract with the US navy for "military installations" is a complete coincidence and not at all related. Reflect joins a growing army of satellite swarms aiming to fill the sky, including SpaceX's Starlink, AST Space Mobile's Bluewalker/Bluebird, and Qianfan's Thousand Sails. How many things will the technological system take away before we accept that it cannot continue to exist?
