Because Dario is still thinking in the past. He's having a Ben Carsons "the pyramids were to store grain" moment and no one is stopping him.

If this is the sort of attack he thinks is to be worried about then I dont know what to tell him. We already opened pandoras box on this. Look at what the Ukraine has done with open source drones (hunting people autonomously)

It takes minimal funding to build enough drones to destroy enough power infrastructure to shut down a large chunk of our grid. It takes even fewer talented resources to put that together with the help of already available AI.

The question I would ask Dario is this: what would some one like Ted Kazniski come up with given the resources of AI. It sure as shit would not be hacking or bioweapons or bombs in the mail.

IF they really gave a shit about safety, the would be funding (in conjunction with other AI companies) actual anonymous red teams (Ala wall facers) with some degree of independent over sight to put in the work that they arent. We're talking about a company that could not even keep its own harness code secure.
