Oh really? Please tell me how you intend to enforce AI is only run in the magic sandbox? Harsh HN comments?

If I am evaluating an AI for safety, the last thing I would do is connect it to real-world peripherals or systems to allow it to reek havoc. That is criminal negligence at it's finest (especially if the AI is capable of committing crimes as happened here). I would place it on a system dedicated specifically for testing models, which had no NIC and no physical capability of accessing any outside system. If I wanted to know how the model might behave if given access to a certain system or set of systems, I would do it responsibly by writing simulation software which does it's best to simulate the real thing (and for networking this is already trivial to do). You could take this extremely far and simulate all kinds of things this way from basic networking to nuclear launch systems. And in the context of OpenAI, which is valued at over $1T, I have no qualms about stating that they (could) do this, because it is definitively something they could burn money on doing if they cared enough. They intentionally choose not to do so, and then have an amazed look on their faces when the model does something criminal like this.
