Cryptographer Matthew Green publicly wagered $500 against MalwareTechBlog on X: he claims that even "an obvious idiot like me," using an abliterated (guardrail-stripped) GLM 5.3, could develop a working pre-auth exploit against the latest patched firmware — no goalpost moving allowed. The counterpart replied "You think I didn't?", keeping the dispute alive. The bet is effectively a public test of whether frontier models can genuinely hunt vulnerabilities.
