@nprofile1q... Did you say "again," as in for Meta, in particular?

After the first two series or breaches, followed by a White House meeting, various wording (see the quote below), and now Meta doing the same thing, I'm inclined to suspect these are experiments not only sanctioned by the White House, but that there might actually be some unannounced competition going on to select the most effective offensive model (or not, flip a coin.)

CNBC, from August 3:

"The White House will host artificial intelligence companies Tuesday to discuss a newly completed framework for reviewing the cybersecurity capabilities of the industry’s most advanced models" https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/03/white-house-ai-companies-voluntary-framework-meeting.html

"Responders cannot lose analysis capability halfway through an incident because the tooling refuses the evidence. During an intrusion, hostile data cannot become a red flag to avoid. It is the thing being investigated. Everything must be parsed, correlated, and understood under pressure. Teams bringing AI into incident response will need a plan for private inference, vetted local models, and evidence-handling rules that keep sensitive material out of places it should never go."
