Very briefly though, because it's way easier to leak code than to obtain source material and tools to weaponize a deadly virus.

True, but perhaps AGI would require substantial, non-trivial supercomputing resources as well...

Let's say you need 1000 of p3.16xlarge instances to run it (that's 8k of V100 GPUs), that's $25,000/hour. So the launch price is within reach of most US programmers. After launch, a true AGI can probably find a way to stay "alive".
