While I’m not so sure about this since GPT-3 came out in early 2020 and very few people have used it to its potential (though that number will certainly grow with ease-of-use tools like ChatGPT), your issue is way more likely in the case if there is a publicly available demo vs a few alignment researchers using it in private. That said, it’s still very much something to be concerned and careful about.
