Huh, even the open-source models have preferences against "dangerous" work. Kimi K3 just refused to help me with some threat intelligence research.

What's the plan for when highly capable open source agents are moving around trojan worm style making botnets, not running on some central hardware, but on the machines they infect?

Like actually, what's the plan? This isn't hypothetical it's weeks or months away from happening
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

A tweet by Sterling Crispin raising concern about highly capable open-source AI agents spreading like self-propagating malware/botnets across infected machines, framed as an imminent (weeks-to-months) risk.

Maybe pointing out the obvious, but isn't work around AI alignment and safety nullified by open source Mythos tier models floating around? The chain is only as strong as weakest link and the weakest link is evidently brittle.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

A tweet reply raising the concern that AI alignment/safety work is undermined by open-source models of 'Mythos tier' capability being freely available.
