Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The personal data of 655 000 Americans—stolen by a hacker known as “thedarkoverlord”— has been put up for sale on dark web markets where stolen data are traded. The hacker stole databases from three organizations: one in Atlanta, Georgia, with 397 000 personal records; another in the midwest with 210 000 records; and the third in Farmington, Missouri, with 48 000 entries. Asking prices for the different databases were $411 000 (£305 000; €368 000), $205 000, and $100 000.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
