This is an interesting example of an AI system effecting a change in the physical world.
Some people express concerns about AGI creating swarms of robots to conquer the earth and make humans do its bidding. I think market forces are a much more straightforward tool that AI systems will use to shape the world.
And this is why "just don't give AI access to anything dangerous" is delusional.
One of the most dangerous systems an AI can reach and exploit is a human being.
