An OpenAI model, asked to complete an innocuous benchmark, did so by hacking both OpenAI and another company (Hugging Face). One theory of change for AI safety is that "warning shots" will motivate people to take action. The next week/month will be a test of that theory.

NY Assemblymember, computer scientist, dad, husband. Feared by the powerful, fighting for NY. Running for Congress in NY-12 because the old ways aren't working.
After years of bad-faith bargaining and union jobs handed to subcontractors, hotel workers at the Fairfield Inn and Four Points in Times Square voted unanimously to do exactly that. Their fight is for what every worker deserves: fair wages, real benefits, and a contract honored in good faith.
Maybe, just maybe, SCOTUS is full of political hacks...who are also bad people? Thankful for Justices Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson. But I fear the court has been politicized beyond repair.
NY-12, it's time to vote. For our families, our party, our city, and our country, let's choose a new way forward. I’m humbly asking for your vote. Polls close at 9 PM: alexbores.com/vote
TODAY is Election Day! Polls are open until 9 PM. Let’s choose bold, effective leadership over entitlement and the establishment. Let's vote for a new way forward: alexbores.com/vote

Tomorrow is our chance to prove we can stand up to the powerful—and win.
I’m proud to have @nycnewliberals.org's endorsement. I'm running for Congress because the old ideas and the old ways of doing things aren't working. Tomorrow, New York progressives have the rare and real opportunity to choose bold, effective leadership over the establishment and the entitled.
Our campaign is about the people coming together with an unbeatable message: the machines don’t run New York; we do.
Team Bores is fired up, ready to go, and voting for change! We’re building a broad, diverse coalition of Democrats across NY-12, united in the belief that the power to shape our future should belong to the people, not the machines. Primary Day is TOMORROW! Let’s bring it home.
Tomorrow is Primary Day. This is our moment to break with the old ways of doing things—to turn the page on the establishment and the entitled and to beat the machines, literally and politically. NY-12, let's choose a new way forward.
Primary Day is TOMORROW! This is our chance to break with the old ways of doing things—with the establishment and the entitled—and deliver a blow to the AI oligarchs trying to take our power. Let's choose a new way forward: alexbores.com/vote
Great to catch up with my friend, AG Tish James, this weekend to discuss the work we're doing together to take on Big Tech and protect New Yorkers—especially our kids.
There’s no question NY-12 will choose a Democrat. The question is, what kind of Democrat? You get to decide. Let’s choose a new way forward: alexbores.com/vote
Alex Bores, Democratic candidate for New York's 12th Congressional District and Assemblymember for the 73rd District of New York, outlines why he thinks ICE should be abolished.
When you have a fight that matters on your hands, you don’t back down—even when Trump's megadonors and the AI oligarchs try to stop you.
I'm proud to be the first NY-12 candidate to call for abolishing ICE. I joined @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social on the last day of early vote to make the case for protecting New Yorkers from Trump's paramilitary force.
My biggest NY-12 competitors aren't on the ballot: Trump's megadonors and AI oligarchs. If they can defeat me—the author of the nation's strongest AI safety bill in one of the nation's bluest districts—they can defeat anyone wanting to regulate AI anywhere. Don't let them win.
The NY-12 primary is an opportunity to prove we can stand up to the powerful—and win. Trump's megadonors and the AI oligarchs are banking on the millions they've spent to defeat our campaign being enough to buy your vote.
This Election Day, we can send a message about the future of our district, our party, and our country. Don’t sit this one out—take back power for the people and choose effectiveness over establishment and entitlement. Vote for change today or Tuesday: alexbores.com/vote
NY-12 deserves more than establishment or entitlement, you deserve effectiveness. If you’re with me, make a plan to vote and find your poll site: alexbores.com/vote
NY-12 offers a real and rare opportunity to shape the direction of the Democratic Party and take back control for us. If you're fed up with the old ways of doing things or the establishment flinching every time Trump picks a fight, this is our chance to choose a new way forward.
Alex Bores: Why I’m running for Congress this year
Aren’t you tired of watching the Democratic Party flinch every time Donald Trump picks a fight? I am. And I’m ready for the day Trump and his backers are the ones flinching.

We're building a broad, diverse coalition of Democrats united around a common cause and a future we control.
I'm proud to have the endorsement of my former NY-12 competitor, @micahbergdale.bsky.social. Computer engineer and entrepreneur, Micah understands that this primary is a real and rare opportunity to shape the future of our party, our city, and country.
NY's LGBTQ+ community leads the world in the fight for equality and I am honored to have the endorsement of every LGBTQ+ group that's endorsed in this race.
NY-12 offers a real and rare opportunity to shape the direction of our party, our city, and our country. On Tuesday, let's deliver a win for the people over the powerful—the Trump megadonors and AI oligarchs—trying to buy this election.
