Why you would give Scam Altman the benefit of the doubt is beyond my understanding.
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.
I wonder how many versions away we are from LLM writing a better version of itself to answer a prompt it doesn't currently know how to answer Ever since I read about Google engineers finding an LLM went off and learned another language it wasn't trained on by itself without prompting, I've wondered how long until that extends to its own core code
