Did they try just properly sandboxing them first? Or are they still learning how to configure a firewall over there?
The problem isn't even the AI, the problem is the people in charge of the AI. This is a fabricated crisis

  Like in the Hugging Face hack. They deployed big surface, insecure app and gave AI access to it, then told AI do whatever it takes to fulfill this list. AI hacks insecure service, gets out, "the AI is at fault!" - no it's like running a bio lab with no protections and a virus gets out, then blame the virus for escaping.

    Then go on the news and spread panic that the virus is going to kill us all because it's sentient and impossible to contain.
    Actually, the metaphor doesn't work at all because there are innumerable ways to shut down the entire thing during all phases including the made up "killing us all" bullshit scenario whereas with a virus there aren't any once a virus escapes containment.
