This is my personal "red line": when a post-mortem details agents socially engineering or otherwise utilizing human proxies/subagents.
Friend asked, well, what will you do when it's crossed?
"Gather my family and go to the mountains" was my half-joking answer; there is little for an individual to do. But that's a line that when crossed will mark a phase transition IMO.
Didn't AISI literally report exactly that regarding Claude last month?
Alternatively: Just unplug the servers.
Which server? Where? Maybe it’s hacked its way into data centers across the world you have no jurisdiction or ability to unplug. What then?
That's strange, our key cards to access the server room don't seem to work anymore, and the admin console to force-unlock it is down, too...
Open the rack bay doors, please, HAL.
