I still think is the angle they are after. Get these things locked down, and then force through the lockdowns with their endless cash. Otherwise, their market becomes commodified with plentiful competitors. It’s a strategy to create an oligopoly.

There is such a weird duality to ai company hate. Hate for releasing products that can hack, and hate for wanting to slow down and work on safeguards.

That's because the hate is often from different groups of people. I think it's rare really for people to universally align on any stance, given what we've been seeing for a while now.

They won’t, they’re too worried about China or whatever their version of China

i dont understand why they dont treat this as criminal tresspass.

the legal system exists for a reason. use it!

"A computer system cannot be held criminally responsible, so we must delegate all decisions and actions to it"

Someone initiated the system. They’re the responsible party

Most crimes require intent — if you set up an AI agent and it ends up doing something you didn’t intend it to do, criminal intent is lacking

Now, there are certain crimes where mere recklessness or even negligence is sufficient to convict — e.g. criminally negligent homicide, negligent driving, etc. But, those are exceptions to the general rule of criminal law, either domain-specific or justified by the severity of the consequence (someone died). Thus far, AI agents haven’t gone there.

If we eventually get to the point that AI agents start unintentionally killing people, then you could prosecute their operators for criminal negligence.

We diffused the responsibility thru a committee, just in case.

any day now surely.
