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.

    I mean.. in this analogy, I'd both be blaming the company behind the virus and be trying to warn everyone about the danger of the escaped virus itself. So, it kind of fits.
    In my reading, people aren't really saying "the AI is at fault", they are saying "hey look here's proof that this is dangerous". Like pointing at all the dead bodies caused by the virus and saying hey maybe we should stop making this virus.
