Episode 7: Memory Palaces, Security Hell, and the Slow Collapse of Society

This week on Yelling at Robots, JR and Foz dive headfirst into the cheerful little topic of AI security doom — with a brief stop at Milla Jovovich apparently becoming an AI memory systems founder.

They unpack Mem Palace, a celebrity-adjacent AI memory project that sent Twitter into a frenzy, then quickly into forensic open-source critique mode. From there, things get only more uplifting: a deep discussion of Google’s AI Agent Traps paper, which catalogs a truly inspiring number of ways agents can be manipulated, poisoned, tricked, socially engineered, and generally turned into chaos goblins.

Then it’s on to Anthropic’s Mythos, a giant unreleased model allegedly trained at absurd cost and now pointed at ancient security vulnerabilities hiding in foundational software. The mood throughout can best be described as: “stay frosty, we’re all cooked.”

A light, breezy episode for anyone interested in: agents, exploits, celebrity AI launches, model psychosis, and the general erosion of psychic stability.

This summary was SOOOOO generated by AI.
