   Getting bored of these framings where the superintelligent sentient beings running freely inside OpenAI are doing things that the company has no control over. The headline should be:

   OpenAI meddled with multiple US Government agency sites.

   The bots are acting neither properly nor improperly, they’re acting as they’re being allowed or coordinated to act.

      Curious, why do you find it so objectionable to state that OpenAI has out-of-control agents?

         Because it furthers the idea of a rogue agent and places responsibility and blame where it belongs, on the people running the company.

            LLMs at this point should be treated as fully autonomous, if not sentient beings. And no, no one has "control" over them not even OpenAI.

               I don't care if OpenAI feels like they have control or not. They are responsible for their actions.
