Hacking my own VPS with an abliterated model: root access in 10 minutes for $5

Quoting @jmilinovich's experiment: using an abliterated (uncensored) model to attack his own VPS, he gained root-level access and all credentials in under 10 minutes for about $5 in inference costs. Commenters argue models are now brute-forcing novel exploitation techniques with their intelligence, so systems need an AI-layer defense against such exploits. A cautionary empirical case for AI security, with a detailed writeup promised.
