I'm a hacker and AI researcher who has reported vulnerabilities to OpenAI, Google, and others. I wrote this guide as a reference of all of the ways that you can hack AI. It has saved me hours. Bookmark this if you need a reference for what all to try (AND includes mitigations).
🎂 It's official: Bell Labs is one hundred! It's hard to imagine what the world would be like without Bell Labs. Join us this year as we celebrate a hundred years of Bell Labs and look forward to the next century of innovation... Discover more ➡️ nokia.ly/4hHk4lY
Okay. Thanks for the nerd snipe guys. I spent the day learning exactly how DeepSeek trained at 1/30 the price, instead of working on my pitch deck. The tl;dr to everything, according to their papers:
An excellent update on folding schemes, including the full walkthrough of HyperNova by @0xAlbertG and @nico_mnbl! HyperNova is an "early stopping" Spartan containing a single sum-check. The more recent NeutronNova stops even earlier requiring only a single round of sum-check!

1/ Today’s zkVMs are likely riddled with bugs. We should stop pretending otherwise. My latest blog post outlines our roadmap toward a bug-free Jolt.
the best way to get good at something is usually to just practice actually doing the thing in question. a lot of very capable people outsmart themselves with complex plans that involve working a lot on fake prerequisites.
Complementary to NeutronNova, we wrote another paper, called Nebula. A core result is an efficient read-write memory primitive in folding schemes. We also provide a new way to acheive "pay-per-use" universal circuits, which "turn off" unused constraints in R1CS.

We verified a Nova+CycleFold proof onchain!, we're very happy ^^ These past months we've been implementing Sonobe in a joint effort by @0xPARC and @privacyscaling. github.com/privacy-scalin… Verifying Nova proofs onchain in Ethereum is now a reality!
Our zk research team has been working on something super cool! It has potential to become the most performant zk[E]VM targeting at real time proving. It combined the best parts of proving system, field choice and VM flow: GKR parallelization + Smaller field arithmetic + Pay…

We're excited to unveil 𝑅𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟—the world's most powerful ZKML prover Our first implementation achieved a mere 180x proof generation overhead vs. the same (non-verifiable) computation on an M2 Mac. Highlights below, read all about it here: medium.com/@ModulusLabs/c… 🚀
Excited to share our latest work on ZKPs security: "SoK: What don’t we know? Understanding Security Vulnerabilities in SNARKs" (w/ @0xSerious, @infosecual, @cryptodavidw, @MMJahanara, @convoluted_code). URL: arxiv.org/pdf/2402.15293…
I'm back, did you miss me? I have some huge news! Over the last year and a half, I've been working on something big in secret with the rest of the crypto security community. Today, we're finally ready to reveal ourselves to the world. We are @_SEAL_Org
1/ We are excited to announce Succinct Processor 1 (SP1), our first generation, 100% open-source zkVM that proves arbitrary Rust programs. SP1 targets an order of magnitude performance improvement vs. existing zkVMs, and is already up to 28x faster for certain programs.
Releasing the Type-1 upgrade to the zkEVM prover, the next generation of Polygon’s proving tech. It can generate proofs for any EVM chain—sidechain, optimistic rollup, even Ethereum itself. When proving Ethereum mainnet blocks, avg per-transaction costs are $0.002 - $0.003.…
Excited that "Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs" was accepted at @USENIXSecurity. This is work with my students @elefthei, Eli Margolin, and Jess Woods; and with @srinathtv. Preprint: eprint.iacr.org/2023/1886. Code at: github.com/eniac/Reef. 1/7
Following several major ZK audits and critical vulnerabilities uncovered, we're opening our ZK audit playbook to help developers write safer circuits. In this thread, we'll share useful tips and address the key questions to answer when auditing ZK applications. Let's dive in.
