Predator. The Lost Boys. RoboCop.
All within a month. What a time to be alive.
There’s nothing new to say about this one that hasn’t already been said. A stone-cold classic, and if anything it only gets better with age. Still sharp, still funny, still brutal.

We extracted (parts of) 12 books in experiments with 4 frontier-lab, production LLMs.
We prompted the LLMs with a short prefix of a book and asked them to complete the rest. For Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, we extracted 95.8% of the book from jailbroken Claude 3.7 Sonnet.

The BBC is correct to stand firm on this.
For it is only by being resolute in be face of this illiberal and misconceived claim that there will be any chance of a satisfactory outcome.
BBC gets many things wrong, but this they are getting right.

If you ask someone today to name the builder of Hadrian's Wall, they would give you a funny look. But historical memory is odd, and right up to the 1800s we forgot who built it.
Until in 1840 John Hodgson, an obscure Northumbrian clergyman, published the LONGEST footnote in history... 1/22
