Odd Lots · The Creator of Claude Code on The Hottest Piece of Software in the World · 20 Jul 2026 podcast

So this is like external security researchers, external engineers, and we asked them, you have one week, we want you to prompt and check our model and prove that you can do this.

If you get it right, the prize is 20 grand.

You have one week.

And so there's a bunch of researchers that participated.

There's a bunch of other models in the mix.

They were able to prompt inject every single model except for our model in Cloud Code.

And the reason is all the work that's gone into alignment, all the work that's got into mechanistic interpretability, which lets us build probes that detect in the model's neurons when it's being prompt ejected.

So we can detect and stop that when it happens.

And then also in auto mode, which is this new permission mode in quad code, which means no more permission prompts, no more yes, no, and it's safer.

Yeah.

And actually, look, like a lot of this is in the model itself, too.

So it's actually a weird approach.

And, you know, for something like prompt injection, there's alignment.

This is in the model.

Then there's neural probes.

This is also kind of in the model.

And then there's auto mode, which is in quad code.

Yeah, I mean, every engineer knows how incredible it is when despite like all the infrastructure not working and all the things not working, the model still figures out how to do the thing that you want.

That's amazing and magical.

And you're right, like it could actually go too far.
