Are you sure he didn’t use the word conservation?

We keep "rogue" to explain explicit instructions from a human to an LLM to persist until the goal is reached.

The rogue here is the criminal actions of OpenAI to deploy their agents to solve a problem at any cost.

The decisions the agent swarm make were fascinating, but they were taken at the direction of a human. HOLD THE HUMAN ACCOUNTABLE.

Have you ever played a game where everything is free? Most people would call this "broken".

The core argument makes a lot more sense when you compare Aaron’s pirating via network closet with Meta’s pirating via BitTorrent.

> Because no step in today's system actually requires a proof-of-concept or bug reproduction, a plausible-sounding fake advisory can slide right through the pipeline and end up in GHSA, downstream databases, and enterprise scanners.

I have no experience in the realm of security, but why isn't the submission process similar to any normal software shop (big or small) in terms of required bug repro steps?
