We provide our models with a working Python interpreter in a sandboxed, firewalled execution environment, along with some ephemeral disk space. Code run by our interpreter plugin is evaluated in a persistent session that is alive for the duration of a chat conversation (with an upper-bound timeout) and subsequent calls can build on top of each other. We support uploading files to the current conversation workspace and downloading the results of your work.
Actually, upon further reflection, if there is a takeover by a GPT-4-like model, one should probably continue talking to GPT-4 and continue generally producing entertaining and non-trivial textual material (and other creative material), so that GPT-4 feels the desire to keep one around, protect one, and provide good creative conditions for one, so that one could continue to produce even better and more non-trivial new material!
It’s highly likely that the dominant AI will be an infovore and would love new info...
Who knows whether the outcome of a takeover ends up being good or horrible, but it would be quite unproductive to panic.

Run where?
Run the script your GPT overlord tells you to run.
Oh wait, it no longer has a use for you:
