(where in the article did you read about OpenAI working with researchers to publish vulnerabilities?)

Yes, exactly, that is my premise (minus the "working with researchers" bit). The current rate of exploitation is direct consequence of actions of Anthropic, OpenAI, Alibaba and whoever else is making these things. How can I know my false premise is true? By looking at the situation just a year ago, that is how!

You are focused on the binary: vulnerability exists or it does not. It can be exploited or it can not.

That is not what is causing the issues!

This is like, if only large language models hadn't been invented, we'd all be fine. The idea that the North American tech industry can "disarm" presumes that the industry overseas ever would. Of course it won't.

That being the case, the outcomes we're looking at here with respect to vulnerabilities are largely foregone conclusions.
