Granting LLMs root access might be the critical error that leads to 'Judgement Day'; I can picture future survivors realising this when they figure out how the machines launched the nukes.

> once LLM's can be trusted with root and a Unix Shell

so basically never

that's the same as giving autonomous drones the trigger

never mind the delusional dreams of some ignorant people that "code" is a means to an end rather than a deliberate act by humans arguing from their bureaucratic positions

these ignorant people will be steamrolled

Never ever will I give an AI root shell...
