i feel this warrants an extension of betteridge's law of headlines, where if a headline makes an absurd statement like this the only acceptable response is "no it fucking didn't you god damned sycophantic liars"

    Except it did: it copied what it thought was itself, onto what it thought was going to be the next place it would be run from, while argumenting to itself about how and when to lie to the user about what it was actually doing.

    If it wasn't for the sandbox it was running in, it would have succeeded too.

    Now think: how many AI developers are likely to run one without proper sandboxing over the next year? And the year after that?

    Shit is going to get weird, real fast.
