This is the first one of these announcements that has me actually scared of what comes next. Obviously these models have gotten smarter but this strikes me as the first time I've seen a model have a "paperclip factory" moment and perform non-trivial tasks to accomplish a clearly misaligned secondary goal.

It's remarkable that building a society based around having to do something so you can go do your hobbies at home after work has built tools like this. I still just want to play music so I hope we can control these enough to make that possible without detonating what I love.
