Meet the AI jailbreakers: ‘I see the worst things humanity has produced’; The Guardian, April 29, 2026

  , The Guardian; Meet the AI jailbreakers: ‘I see the worst things humanity has produced’

"Tagliabue is softly spoken, clean-cut and friendly. He is in his early 30s but looks younger, almost too fresh-faced and enthusiastic to be in the trenches. He is not a traditional hacker or a software developer; his background is psychology and cognitive science. But he is one of the best “jailbreakers” in the world (some say the best): part of a diffuse new community that studies the art and science of fooling these powerful machines into outputting bomb-making manuals, cyber-attack techniques, biological weapon design and more. This is the new frontline in AI safety: not just code, but also words."
