I agree with this almost completely (especially about sane companies, which I think we can all agree they are not), but I think it's important to separate the notion that these tools are potentially dangerous from the behaviour of the CEOs. The executives are there to make as much money as possible, that is all they care about. It's the researchers who are playing around with these things that are causing damage with them (aside from the damages from the data centers themselves, of course). They need to be better than this. It's not enough to blame senior leaders in this case, since they are clearly problematic. The junior staff share responsibility now too.

> OpenAI and Anthropic have way too many senior staff on staff to be unaware of this

Anthropic, yes. For OpenAI, not in the way you might think. Most senior staff are research scientists who have likely not even thought about sandboxing and cybersecurity in their lives. They outcompete the rest. That's why so many of their "safety" staff left for Anthropic; the culture at OpenAI has never cared for these sorts of topics.
