The danger with LLMs isn’t that it “tries to kill you”, it’s because they’re all sycophantic, it isn’t a fully understood technology yet (so safeguards inside the black box will only be known to go so far, with an unknown amount of ways to bypass,) and humanity is generally susceptible to being manipulated to trust LLMs (due to how they sound the same in all topics, and dont have other modes of communication other than text and voice, among other issues.)

What everyone is mainly saying is that OpenAI has a long history of assisting in dozens of deaths, more than other companies like Meta and Anthropic. Despite the fact that there will always be a non-zero chance of bypassing filters, OpenAI has continuously mismanaged creating these filters in the first place.
