Fuck Today, Continued (Part 3)

It wasn’t even a case of incompetence, but of greed, cruelty and disdain. One of the people arrested admitted that the laboratory owners said they were supposed to carry out quality control tests only once a week, instead of daily tests, to save money, as the reagents and other materials were very expensive and would reduce the margin. of profit.

Whether a chatbot, or more particularly, its owner and creator can be “blamed”, for counselling suicide in this case, is something I’m glad to see tested in court. If the judge does a good job there will be some more guidance around the issues. It will be tough going, untangling the interaction of a young teen, in hindsight clearly struggling, with a system which can’t even start to “understand” and is highly likely to act inappropriately. Maybe some little good will come of this in the end.

I’m personally in the “if you unleash it on the world, you take the blame for its actions” camp. Not understanding the guts of the system you’ve built is not, in my books, grounds for absolution.
