I must admit I'm rather enjoying this particular form of shit show, mostly because it was a predication I made in 2023 in the early days of LLMs. It wasn't really a problem related to LLMs but a glaring hole in the thinking of current computing which is the "frustratingly over-connected" and "over-trust" approach to everything. After reading Liu Cixin's "three body problem" and noting the Dark Forest, I applied that to risk vectors and came to the conclusion that our over-connected nature plus some form of acceleration plus some form of negative impact will fuck us big time.

Turns out it did.

Thus we should probably start treating our thinking model of computing as a Dark Forest, not a friendly community. That mitigates these risks to some degree.
