We are dealing with other issues here, what you are describing is much like a problem of the previous century! Now we have Big Business and Big Gov treating, language, biology and everything like a software/hardware problem. Imagine how many issues are on standardised electronic hardware and software that are pretty much not diverse compared with life. But having the hardware/software paradigm about life will bring wild ramifications.
Why did Musk specifically used the phrase "summoning the demon" when talking about AI, more than a decade ago nonetheless? Not in uncertain terms, is not even metaphorical, more like pataphorical:
If AI in other areas is at least obnoxious and demonic as the LLMs are (the linguistic AI) and diffusion algorithms are(the "art"/image AI), we are fried.
They even discuss the risks while they are using this technologies unregulated for at least more than a decade. Strange how the obesity pandemic, started showing up just about time when synthetic hormones and enzymes showed up big time in the 90's-2000's.
Just a summary search and you find hundreds of papers. Greek gods might know what are in the R&D labs of Big Business! Take the simplest bioactive component the enzymes, just a bad synthetic enzyme can be extremely dangerous because just trace elements are enough to disrupt life processes. And now they put this stuff everywhere from perfumes, paints and mostly in dish and clothes detergents, etc
And yes synthetic biology sheds, enzyme, cells, etc shed from people's clothes, perfumes, etc
