I'm growing increasingly skeptical that these are actually rogue. Valuations are all about hype, posturing, and perception. Having the most dangerous AI in the world boosts your valuation. Just like I was skeptical of Mythos and Fable being "banned", I'm skeptical of these hacking sprees being entirely rogue. At best, they are the result of engineers turning a blind eye to "see what happens".

It's a balancing act between showing capability and attracting legal issues. If you were a 1337 teen hacker in the 90s and wanted to show off without getting in serious trouble, a school or library would've been a good choice too.
