    Once again... why are they not running these things in total airgap environments? I have to assume it's not incompetence at this point.

      Yeah I don't get it, either. If the exercise relies on the assumption that the agent can't reach the "live internet", whatever that means, there are affirmative steps to realize that assumption. The fact that they failed to take those steps suggests two possibilities: they are idiots, or they think we're idiots who will fall for this marketing campaign.

        Look around HN, plenty of people buy the "LLMs are scary" IPO-boosting talking point
