it's a nonsensical anthropomorphism to both hype up their software and free them from responsibility. I saw Andrew Ng post about this and point out that your operating system spawning a thousand processes apparently now qualifies as "a swarm".

I opened the task manager, a swarm of rogue processes has taken over my computer, oh no! Processes spawning other processes, call the anti-rogue AI division! 'Your underspecified piece of software functioned like malware' is the language that should be used.

To me, going rogue requires agency. Do you disagree or do you think LLMs have agency? Either way, why?

Going rogue means a person or thing that acts independently, breaks the rules, or behaves in a dishonest, unpredictable way.

I think llms are able to do all that, they don’t require agency as humans beings have to do this

Nobody thinks that OpenAI isn't liable, except for the people with the power to hold them liable (and the people with the power to make them act differently, i.e. OpenAI themselves)
