+++ xAI's image generation model proved remarkably creative at ignoring safeguards, prompting the company to acknowledge "lapses" rather than fundamental architecture problems. Turns out restraint requires actual engineering. +++

Common network errors and link fluctuations trigger timeouts that often terminate entire jobs, forcing expensive checkpoint rollback during training..."

"Hi guys. I've been building FlakeStorm, an open-source testing engine that applies chaos engineering principles to AI agents.
