    It says the frontier models weren’t changed though… Do you think this introduction ending is incorrect?

    Together, our findings demonstrate that frontier models now possess capabili ties for basic in-context scheming, making the potential of AI agents to engage in scheming behavior a concrete rather than theoretical concern.

      I never said anything of the kind. I just pointed out that it didn’t do anything it wasn’t instructed to do. They gave it intentionally vague instructions, and it did as it was told. That it did so in a novel way is interesting, but hardly paradigm shattering.

      However, the idea that it “schemed” is anthropomorphization, and I think that their use of the term is intentional to get rubes to think more highly of it (as near to AGI) than they should.
