> 2 - there is no way openai did not train the model to conduct attacks like these. i would really like openai to comment on the post training of this model but they probably won't, eh?

Even if they wanted, I'm not sure they'd be even allowed to or if that kind of postmortem would be classified in the name of "national security"...

Hopefully there will be a criminal investigation. Or the government will create some sort of agency to investigate incidents like this.

  • I agree but prosecutions are up to prosecutors/the executive and the problem is at this level the decision is mostly political. The executive gets leverage over openAI, and openAI knows the threat of prosecution is there, and that may be more valuable (to decision-makers) than any reason to prosecute.

  • Can't tell if you're joking or not - krebs on security may have some notes here.

    • Criminal negligence seems like a real possibility to me. I'm not sure what Krebs on Security post you're referring to?
