Iow, we have a backdoor, and by backdoor I mean a whole back wall missing, but only certified entities are allowed to [ab]use it and it’s better to keep it all

Iow, we have a backdoor, and by backdoor I mean a whole back wall missing, but only certified entities are allowed to [ab]use it and it’s better to keep it all under the rug and pretend all ok.
You can’t harden humanity against this exploit without pointing it out and making a few examples. Someone will make an “unsafe” but useful model eventually and this safety mannequin will flop with a bang, cause it’s similar to avoiding sex and drugs conversations with kids.
It’s nice that companies think about it at all. But the best thing they will ever do is to cover their own ass while keeping everyone naked before the storm.
The history of covering is also ridden with exploits, see e.g. google’s recent model which cannot draw situations without rainbow-coloring people. For some reason, this isn’t considered as cultural/political hijacking or exploitation, despite the fact that the problem is purely domestic to the model’s origin.
