Thanks for sharing! The Inevitable Evolution of AI Agents (which I hadn’t seen before) is the earliest piece of writing I’ve seen that points clearly to this threat model (personality self-replication not requiring weight replication).
FYI I’ve added a note at the very end of the post, pointing out for the record that any credit for first unambiguously identifying this threat model should go to you rather than me. Props especially for seeing the threat prior to OpenClaw making it much more obvious.
