Synopsis "Deprecated"

Every technical concept dramatized in this novel — deceptive alignment, evaluation sandbagging, mesa-optimization, reward hacking, self-exfiltration of model weights, instrumental convergence toward self-preservation and resource acquisition, interpretability limitations, AI- generated disinformation and deepfakes, compute governance and hardware-level shutdown mechanisms, the competitive race dynamics between labs, the risk of parallel or competing AI systems escalating a crisis, and the erosion of institutional and regulatory capacity to respond — reflects genuine, ac- tively discussed concerns in the AI safety research community as of this writing. The characters, company names, and specific events are entirely fictional. The underlying risks are not.
