No more than you should worry about your phone, your toaster, or a boulder suddenly becoming self-aware.
Extremely theoretically, a consciousness could spontaneously form at any point [1]. In practice, there is no reason to worry about this - it's not a likely event. There is nothing about this model (or any other one in existence) that increases the likelihood of it achieving sentience when compared to anything else ever.
