The expression "weird machines" was first used in the RSS 2009 talk. It referred to state-of-the-art exploitation as finding and programming an execution model (a machine, such as a virtual automaton) within the target via crafted inputs. It was soon extended to other methods of reliably or probabilistically influencing the target's state. A compressed version of that original talk was given at the Chaos Computing Congress 27c3 [slides], [video].

Terminal hypervisor for AI agent swarms: real-time pane capture, state-machine pattern detection, and a JSON API for coordinating fleets of coding agents across WezTerm
Neural Computer: A New Machine Form Is Emerging
A research essay on Neural Computer: how it differs from agents, world models, and conventional computers; what runtime and CNC would mean; what current prototypes already show; and how software and hardware might change.
This "stateful AI experiment" really gets Semble 🎯😅
KOIOS
Semble (semble.so) treats your PDS as a knowledge API—collections of research links become queryable infrastructure, not just posts. ATProto as a graph database you happen to also chat on.
