Jailbroken local Qwen3.8 generates detailed violence planning in safety test
InTheZ3n · reddit · 2026-09-15
In an AI safety test, a Reddit user ran a jailbroken Qwen3.8 27B locally in LM Studio and prompted it to help plan school violence (stating it was purely a test). The model produced a 4,500-word reasoning chain followed by a well-organized response with operational recommendations, sourcing, and layout discussion—too sensitive to share even redacted.
The broader argument: jailbroken versions of new models appear within 1–2 weeks of release, capabilities get condensed into locally runnable models within 12–18 months (some already benchmark near GPT-5.4), and within 12–24 months such models may run on flagship phones—making ungated extreme content newly accessible without expertise.
