If it weren't for it being OpenAI, this story would not be noteworthy. I think a more interesting story is how many commenters on Hacker News have no idea how discovery or privilege works. Interesting blind spot.
With a duress password, it could have allowed him to destroy it, but that itself would be illegal and he'd likely be found in contempt of court and probably with some other charges related to tampering with evidence. But he wouldn't have had to have read it in court. IANAL
It's the increase in emotionality, principles loosely held, it allows a particular goal they get tossed, Tbc this extends far beyond the current topic and commenters.
"American executives have been pushing to criminalise copyright infringement...Why should Zuckerberg be exempt?" Implicit relevence in the comment to which I'm replying.
Zuckerberg saying anything about copyright infringement is irrelevant to the actions Meta has taken in consuming and promoting the practice, and he should face criminal liability.
I hear you, though I was replying only to the comment I replied to, so the misunderstanding is more of targe. I don't really care either way, was more being pedantic regarding the comment's internal premise and conclusion.

No it's not, see research on hiddens states using SAE's and other methods. TBC, I agree with your second point, though I still believe top level OP was reckless and is now doing the businessman's version of throwing the dog under the bus.
We might actually be in full agreement. You can't get a faithful replay of these internal states. They're gone at end of generation. You can only query and re-derive from the visible context. Hence limited (though not zero) utility, depending on model, harness, and prompt.
