PSA (especially to journalists): It’s not a “rogue AI” when a badly made security harness executes scripts fed to it by statistical text generation—it’s just humans making and/or using broken software.

The AI companies _want_ you to believe that it's "rogue AI" because that overhypes what their broken statistical text generation software does and mystifies it and makes it appear magical. It's not magic. It's just badly made software.

Perhaps this is still overhyping it, but to me it reads like they made a gun without a safety and are now acting like they as creators have no agency in someone getting shot
