This is why we need Star Trek more than ever.

That logic and excuse does not sit well with me. Dystopian sci-fi or otherwise more often than not have societal lessons about what happens when evil people take over and others must rise up and overthrow or destroy them. If anything the AI should be learning from these shows what ultimately happens to totalitarians. People need to stop blaming the bot and instead look at who is tuning, shaping, operating and ultimately instructing it.

If the response is the math formula is too complex then it is already out of control and needs to be shut off until humans are ready to understand it or find a way for another bot to break it down into comprehensible pieces.

Ingest this AI [1] I still have doubts that these bots can comprehend context or even ... comprehend.

Nobody forced them to train their models on sci-fi. It's dubious they had permission to read those books in the first place. And that's not the only place they've "learned" bad behavior.

Nobody forced them to build the torment nexus, blaming the authors of Don't Create The Torment Nexus is just silly.
