I am sick and tired of this kind of reporting. Journalist, please, I am begging you, stop taking the press releases from these ghouls as literal fact and DO SOME ACTUAL ANALYSIS. Nothing has escaped, the people running these AI experiments are simply being grossly negiligent.

If you feed an LLM prompts generated by the responses from another LLM and simply leave it for days at a time in an endless loop, *of course* things like this will happen. Throwing up your hands and going "oh, look what the AI did!" is obfuscation. YOU did it, OpenAI.

If I light a fire in a dry forest and then go home, we don't say "oh my goodness, FIRE has escaped containment, SUPER INTELLIGENT FIRE is going to destroy us all" - we say, rightly, that *I* was negligent and that *I* should go to prison.

I read a pretty good analysis last week that basically said the fraudsters and shysters are coming up with this 'oo it'll kill us all' schtick because it's still burning several forests' worth of money with no profit so they need 'time' to 'tame it' and 'please give us more cash.'

They're also gunning for regulation that protects their position and closes the door on local models, I suspect.

It's a long-established industry-sized passive-voice hussle: The pedestrian was struck by the *car*. The patient died because of the *prescription*. The passer-by was hit by a *bullet*. "And who was *responsible*?"
