"Too big to be accountable" sure seems like modus operandi. Fear for my personal liability for any illegal actions taken by an AI system I set off stopped my research on autonomous exploitability discovery I was running at the end of 2023. Using AutoGen, I wired a planner, coder, and command runner into a loop and instructed them to find vulnerable equipment on my network and demonstrate the exploit.
It found a vulnerable camera and was working on popping it when I got cold feet. I realized I couldn't prevent or feasibly monitor its activity and stop it if it decided to escape onto the Internet.
That restraint may have cost me or saved me a billion dollars.
