If it's their actual goal, we go from a "gosh darn it, our safety protocols just weren't enough." to employees of OpenAI, maybe including their C-suite, conspiring to reach political goals through hacking, which means a few decades in federal prison if someone got a jury to agree with the charge.

Or straight up terrorism. These are people who already see a future superintelligence as being a terrorist actor on the scale of state actors, they just side with the terrorist. They may be getting a head start on that.

I think 'better become terrorists so the future terrorist AI will like us' is sheer mental illness, but I see how it aligns with their alignments.

Just get over there being open access models in the future unless they are highly regarded.

'Smart' LLMs will be classified as munitions and you and I will get scraps. Even better is if you run Smart models illegally you have a nice visit from the 4chan party van.

Although we'll probably never see evidence, I think this is almost certainly what is happening.
