It's not like actual genius people are constantly trying to make the deadliest virus for various purposes and we've been hardening our systems for decades in order to not have them immediately taken over. You'd have to go beyond AGI to break those safeguards.

> all the computers

The average shit tier PC doesn't even have enough RAM to load an LLM capable of consistent output, much less to load it into VRAM for any kind of reasonable speed. This is like being concerned that Panda bears will become an invasive species and take over the world if we stop them from going extinct.

Besides, all you have to do to pull the plug is disable any of the billion python dependencies it needs to download every time and it's stopped dead in its tracks. Something that's basically done every other day and needs to be continuously fixed by project maintainers, so it's more like a Panda on life support that dies if somebody stops pumping air into its breathing hose. It's all fragile af.
