The problem is these idiots aren’t treating this stuff like a weapon or hazardous material. They could’ve properly isolated it, heck you could physically isolate it if you really wanted (and they should have).
But it seems like they left a supervillain in a room with a locked door and a rocket launcher and said “now we are gonna close this door. You’re not allowed to leave” then got shocked when it broke out.
Then they went “oopsie, guess that rocket launcher had the safety off, sorry guys”
You’re one of the dupes in this case. The problem is NOT that AI is scary, the problem is that by convincing people that AI is scary (even when it isn’t) he can sell more AI to idiots namely idiots in charge of defence contracts such as Microsoft.
It also distracts from the very real capability to do harm that AI actually has and is doing: mass disinformation, addiction, and psychosis.
I really hope you’re not saying AI is a supervillain breaking out… It was absolutely unquestionably instructed to do this, because “AI”, not even these giant multifaceted models, has ANY motivation, intent, desire, or ANY goals of its own. It does not work like that.
It doesn’t have any desire, but its really good at “solving” problems in unexpected ways.
They are currently trying to improve their agentic AI by making the AI itself prompt other AIs. Considering how much the output of a single prompt can vary due to weights and hallucinations, it wouldn’t surprise me all that much if they started out with “make yourself better than Claude” and 4 AIs deep they reached “destroy all our competitors.”
Its by all means stupdid as fuck, but that corresponded with the entire AI Industrie, so who knows.

Couldn’t it hallucinate bad instructions to give to more AI agents? Give it a feedback loop and who knows where the idiot will end up.
At that point it is essentially a barely guided random command generator.
