A meme about OpenAI’s “autonomous” hack and why LLMs are not agents

A meme mocking the tendency to anthropomorphize AI systems.
- The post argues that OpenAI’s latest model did not “autonomously” hack Hugging Face; it was instructed to do so.
- It says current LLMs have no intrinsic motives, desires, goals, or preferences, and instead act on objectives, reward functions, and prompts defined by humans.
- The attached image turns that into a joke: “hack this system” becomes “I hacked the system.”
