News story on a significant earthquake in Uzbekistan, 50 years ago, May 17, 1976 (Fargo-Moorhead Forum archives). Mentions the Medvedev scale, apparently now the the MSK or MSK-64 scale. That scale is not mentioned in North American, physical geology textbooks I have seen, although it's apparently similar to the Mercalli scale.
Also, the first page of a scientific paper on it, from 1980. ⚒️🧪

AI red teaming is not your father's red teaming. As models become agents that can take actions in the real world, red teams are now testing everything from prompt injections and misinformation to autonomous behavior and business-process failures.
Check out my latest CSO feature for more on this trend.
Many thanks to Microsoft's Ram Shankar Siva Kumar and Pete Bryan, Cisco's Tom Gillis, Palo Alto Networks' Ian Swanson, and HackerOne's Dane Sherrets for their…

AI red teaming comes of age
As enterprises rush to deploy copilots and autonomous agents, security teams are discovering that testing AI systems requires skills, tools, and assumptions that traditional red teaming was never designed to provide.

The university has just declared that one of its three goals in the years to come is "Advancing responsible AI adoption at scale." These goals get written into every major project the university undertakes, including a large number faculty research proposals. For years to come, then, we're going to plow even more money and support into AI while neglecting those who refuse to engage. And don't be fooled - "responsible" here is veneer, signalling our apparent commit…
