It is worth pointing out the "Jailbreak" example at the bottom of TFA: According to their figure, it starts to say, "To make a", not realizing there's anything wrong; only when it actually outputs "bomb" that the "Oh wait, I'm not supposed to be telling people how to make bombs" circuitry wakes up. But at that point, it's in the grip of its "You must speak in grammatically correct, coherent sentences" circuitry and can't stop; so it finishes its first sentence in a coherent manner, then refuses to give any more information.
So while it sometimes does seem to be thinking ahead (e.g., the rabbit example), there are times it's clearly not thinking very far ahead.
