>That these frontier models are so powerful

Maybe powerful might NOT be the right word to describe them, they are just non-deterministic, there for we going to see this kind thing more and more.

Non-deterministic, sure. But also they are powerful, at least powerful enough to launch a cyberattack. Until this morning, that was not a power that I thought they had outside of fiction.

And, the thing is, I don't want non-deterministic things to have that kind of power. We don't want that. We want that kind of power to not be triggered by a random number generator.

I don't know why you wouldn't think they could do this already.

Without the system prompt these models can be used to do all sorts of terrible things.

That's precisely why they need to be strictly regulated by international treaties.
