I'm mystified at the attitude. Why not a "er. I see how that's a footgun, although it is the documented behavior. Lets figure out how to make this safe, just remove it because it's not very useful, or at least put big wa

I don't think your response is appropriate. Narrow domain "superintelligence" is around us everywhere-- every PID controller can drive a process to its target far beyond any human capability. The obvious way to incorporate g
