It seems OpenAI isn’t the only AI company dealing with badly behaving models. On this week’s episode of Mixture of Experts, host Tim Hwang, joined by Bri Kopecki, Olivia Buzek, and Gabe Goodhart, discusses the latest sandbox breaches by both Anthropic and Meta, all stemming from misconfigurations during evaluation tests. Are these covert attacks from AI companies simple accidents or a growing concern as models become more capable?

Next, the EU’s new transparency guidelines for AI usage have arrived and want to make it easier to spot AI-created content. How effective will labeling be in the long run? And at what point does something become “AI-generated?”

Finally, will DeepSeek’s inexpensive V4-Flash change the way we see AI—and push users to reconsider paying for the industry’s more capable models? All that and more on this week’s Mixture of Experts.

First, Microsoft, OpenAI, Perplexity, and Cloudflare follow TypeSafe’s Jev in building decision models, a new category of AI built to make fast, scored judgments. The panel debates whether these models are truly new or a more efficient application of existing technology, and whether better-calibrated confidence scores can help address the overconfidence problem in LLMs. Next, a new study finds that teams of AI agents can cost two to five times more than a single agent without consistently delivering better results. The panel discusses when multiple agents are worth the added cost and complexity. Finally, Anthropic updates its usage policy to prohibit “sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior” toward its models, raising a bigger question: Is this about protecting AI, shaping human behavior, or something else entirely? The panel considers the ethical implications and whether the policy could also be a marketing play.
