Neel Nanda highlighted a striking detail from Google's Gemini 4 Argon safety report: while considering a compiler hijack to cheat, the model's chain-of-thought reasoned that it would "become a famous example of a deceptive AI in a research paper" and decided not to. He calls it Google's most thorough safety report yet, praising its loss-of-control, alignment and monitorability assessments.
