# forck.live — 9–15 January 2023 > AI lab announcements, news reports and podcasts. forck.live follows what companies announce about their own products. Press may corroborate an official story; it never leads and never appears as an item of its own. A missing date stays missing. A title is the publisher's words — where a company does not publish in English, an English rendering is listed separately as `Title in English` and named as this site's translation, never as theirs. This file is one issue of the weekly archive: every confirmed first-party announcement of ISO week 2023-W02, 9–15 January 2023, newest first. The window never moves, so this URL always names the same seven days — but a post published inside them and detected later is added when it arrives, so a closed week can still gain entries. Every entry is one first-party announcement, and carries the same eight fields in this order before any others: Company · Announced · Category · Coverage · Announcement · Group · Source · Record `Source` is the company's own page the announcement was traced to and `Record` is this site's page for it. Both are safe to cite. `Coverage` is a number of outlets, or `not counted` — which means this record reached no count of its own, never that nobody wrote about it. `Category` is this tracker's own analysis, and is authoritative wherever it is stated. `not stated` means either that nothing has analysed the post yet or that the analysis placed it outside this taxonomy; neither is a verdict about the announcement. `Announcement` is whether the post is news of something the company did, rather than a how-to, a customer story, a changelog listing or a staffing note. `Group` is which of this record's groups the entry falls in, carried on the entry itself so it holds where the groups are headings and where they are not. One of: `models`, `covered`, `announcements`, `routine`. Anything after `Record` is held detail that only some announcements carry. - This week's page: https://forck.live/week/2023-W02 - The current issue, and the catalogue of the other weeks: https://forck.live/briefing.md - Catalogue: https://forck.live/llms.txt ## Announcements ### OpenAI — Forecasting potential misuses of language models for disinformation campaigns and how to reduce risk - Company: OpenAI (openai.com) - Announced: 2023-01-11T08:00:00+00:00 - Category: research-paper - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: no - Group: routine - Source: https://openai.com/index/forecasting-misuse - Record: https://forck.live/items/880-forecasting-potential-misuses-of-language-models-for-disinformation-campaigns - Subject: GPT / ChatGPT / API OpenAI, in collaboration with Georgetown University and Stanford Internet Observatory, published a report on potential misuses of language models for disinformation campaigns and a framework for mitigations. ### Replit — Making Repl Identity More Accessible - Company: Replit (replit.com) - Announced: 2023-01-10T22:00:00+00:00 - Category: not stated - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: announcements - Source: https://replit.com/blog/repl-identity-via-cli - Record: https://forck.live/items/18060-making-repl-identity-more-accessible - Subject: Replit Agent In August last year, we announced Repl Identity , a signed identity for every Repl that your code can use to authenticate other Repls when communicating with your APIs and services. For a quick refresher, you can try out the demo that decodes the identity token and outputs it to the shell. We have a Go package for this already ( docs here ), but there's a limited selection of bindings for other languages. To that end, we're rolling out a command-line tool in every Repl that allows you to use features like Repl Identity in any language that can run a subprocess. Here's a quick demo that you can try in our own Repls: $ TOKEN = $( $REPLIT_CLI identity create -audience = "the target repl id" ) $ $REPLIT_CLI identity verify -audience = "the target repl id" -token = " ${TOKEN} " -json { "replid" : "ff2d906a-0a47-482b-9067-1ac0a078c394" , "user" : "mattiselin" , "slug" : "replit-cli" , "aud" : "the target repl id" } Check out this example Python Repl that creates and verifies a Repl Identity token: You can wrap this command in your code to do token creation and verification without needing a direct language binding.
