Capabilities and safety are two sides of offensive vs defensive cyber, argues LeviTurk
LeviTurk · x · 2026-11-14
In a short post, LeviTurk argues that the capabilities-versus-safety tradeoff maps onto offensive versus defensive cyber: the one cannot exist without the other. His point is aimed at 'cooper doomers' who expect doom from capability gains — internalizing that models can't be made defensive without also being capable of offense. It's an opinionated one-liner in the AI safety debate with no further detail.
