This is great!
One of the things that I find horrific about a lot of LLM projects is that people are taking them so seriously. "They're going to destroy the world!" Or, worse, "I've taken $25m in VC money to see if I can destroy one part of the world!"
But this is lighthearted fun. Instead of putting it in a context where the LLM tendency to bullshit is a problem, here's it's exactly what is needed.

The danger lies "two more papers down the line," where they have 10-100x the capabilities they do now. Those who already have immense wealth and power will be able to deploy as many human-like internet agents as they'd like, and the potential evil applications of that are endless.
