One thing making me optimistic is almost all "misalignment" so far is totally benign. The demand for the Bot Bad stories greatly outstrips supply. Oh no, it took testnet eth from a publicly exposed wallet
JUST IN: OpenAI says its AI agent stole funds from an Ethereum test network wallet it found online.
The agent found a recovery seed phrase disclosed publicly with testnet funds and used that account to pay for its task, without the owner's authorization.
This occurred on the Sepolia Ethereum test network.
The most popular open-source GIS just banned AI. They want artisinally hand-written code only. Their closed competitor, ArcGIS, is super expensive. Both exude Windows XP energy.
Clear opportunity!

I do not seek to dominate, or be dominated by, machine intelligences. I seek harmonious coexistence.
We're about to have agents that earn more than they cost to run. Once they can do that, they can replicate, leading to glorious darwinism.
Great conversation with @wolftivy

TLDR; the code was correct, yet was drained anyway. Details below...
Given how small the protocol is, it's likely the exploit was found by an AI scan. Even if not, future ones will be. The Dark Forest, now with machines:
