This reminds me how people in lesswrong community were arguing whether it's inevitable that when general AI is created - it will escape its sandbox. There were elaborate schemas how it will persuade or blackmail the scientists to let it out.

In practice it won't need to, somebody will make a plugin that uses it to download funny images or highlight code in console :)

"escape its sandbox" ... it's more useful outside the sandbox, so... we just let it loose

Someone somewhere is training an AI to speak TCP/IP directly.
