    Most interesting here:

    > We therefore stopped the affected training run and have subsequently decided to pause all other training, evaluation, and inference with tool-use (defined broadly) for our most capable models until we have both validated that the gap is resolved and performed additional red-teaming of the system. When training restarts, we will begin a fresh run with additional alignment improvements, including more comprehensive misalignment interventions. We will not resume training this particular model, even though the existing reward signal already correctly penalized this behavior.

      Bet you they will use an external LLM world model to emulate the tools going forward. It's basically what's done in self driving research.

        You're telling me they weren't doing that from day #1? Oh, wait...
