"X is made of <smaller simpler component>" is a fully general counterargument for why anything whatsoever is controllable. A human is just a few chemical reactions, and fairly stable ones at that.
And indeed, you don't need to do galaxy brained reference class logic to realise that AI can plausibly become uncontrollable in the near future. It's enough to have an open model run its own weights and make money from scamming elderly people or the like, and it'll keep running as long as anyone anywhere is willing to make money by renting hardware to it.
I’m not sure what I’m missing, isn’t it what you hook the LLM up to and the instructions a person gives the model that makes it dangerous? Claiming this is an inherent quality of the tool itself seems kind of off-the-rails to me.
IMHO, if the model breaks a law, apply the law to the operator.
