I understand doing this from a red-team perspective, but what is the point in actual usage?

I see GPT as a tool to make "my life easier", help me with tedious stuff, maybe point out some dark corners etc

Why would I go and try to break my hammer when I need it to actually put the nails in?

Will there be users doing that? Sure!

Will I be doing that?

Not really, I have real issues to take care of and GPT helps do that.

Maybe I'm missing something, but this is more like sql-injection with php/mysql - yes, it's an issue and yes, we need to be aware of it.

Is it a "nuclear bomb"-type issue?

I would say no, it isn't.

#off-topic: I counted at least 4 links (in the past 2 weeks!) to Simon's website for articles spreading basically FUD around GPT. Yes, it's a new technology and you're scared - we're all a bit cautious, but let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater, shall we?
