    “Kill switch” – oh the drama. Let’s call every simple toggle ‘kill switch’ from now on.

      For it to be a kill switch it would have to actually terminate a rogue AI.

        Yeah, call me when Firefox creates terminators that infiltrate and destroy data centers and then themselves.

      What’s worse…you could always toggle it. In fact, you could re-route it to your own local LLM.
