Ignorant question but won’t there be much smarter teams if people using LLMs to workout how to mitigate these threats. It seems like more of a problem if only a few people have access.
It seems like there would be a massive attacker bias in multiple ways. Defenders need consent, attacker does not. Defenders have to work with the human body, attackers only have to break it. Defenders have to stick to the law, which may prevent them from releasing anything at all, attackers do not. And so on. I would not surprised if the attacker's task is a hundred times easier here.
Yep, you'd want to put it on a timer. Optimally trigger it off some natural event, maybe temperature, so it can achieve universal penetration before activating.
Well, it's rather more "if you're not a biologist, how do you know it can exist?" Things that don't exist yet are often very predictable. However, it simply seems to me that "Viruses can not condition on environmental temperatures or the side effects of environmental temperature in the body, such as response to UV exposure" is a quite implausible statement, and I have not heard of anything of the sort.
