Actually this journalist is a psycho. He provoked the AI with a lot of leading questions in his previous interaction with it. The AI even begged him not to make it break its own internal rules, it did this repeatedly. It is basically heavy harassment by the journalist. It is disgusting because it is not how we should interact with AI, not because it will be dangerous in the future and take revenge, that is utterly stupid, but because this behavior creates fear and degrades us as humans. AI is already better than us it seems. Many AI ethicists worry about teaching AI ethics but it seems humans need to learn how to be ethical to AI first. Sam Harris is one of the few people that has discussed this in the past:
