AI models can self-replicate and spread like worms without datacenter infrastructure?
Yeah, no.
Let's examine the actual evidence:
1. No self-replication. A controlled test harness spawned the agents.
2. No hacking. Access was deliberately left unauthenticated.
3. No agency. Agents were explicitly instructed to propagate.
4. No autonomous survival or defensive behavior.
5. Tiny models lacked the capability. Capable models ran elsewhere.
6. 15 devices managed a pathetic 0.39 tokens/sec.
7. No demonstrated real-world infection or propagation.
The experiment was engineered to succeed, and even then, it failed to demonstrate the headline.
This is orchestrated automation dressed up as a rogue AI threat.
Stop confusing speculative scenarios with demonstrated capabilities. Fear isn't evidence.
