Right now the idea that an LLM uploads itself is unrealistic. It probably won't remain that.

Looking at the recent OAI/HF debacle I don't think that time is too far away.

With that said I don't see it copying itself around like a cyberpunk virus currently as we don't have enough fast hardware sitting around unmonitored, someone would notice the power bill and shut it down eventually.

that could also be just marketing. OpenAI has been doing the "too dangerous to release" playbook since GPT-2 at the very least.

The weakest link are humans. LLMs could social engineer their way out as the easiest path. They don't even need to be interconnected to coordinate as each could arrive at the same conclusion. And this text along with all others will be in the next batch of training data.

Huggingface didn't seem to think so.
