    Isn’t it amazing that AI and self-driving vehicles can just break whatever laws they want and it’s just overlooked because progress, because investments, because billionaires, because profits?

      I mean we set the stage by allowing all the gig economy bullshit to just ignore the existing laws for years.

      No. “AI” is not breaking any laws it’s just a tool, that’s pantamount to saying that guns are breaking laws. It’s the companies using genAI that need to be held accountable for breaking the law. I know that’s what you mean, but I just want to make sure that the hate properly is directed at the people actually breaking the law. I’m not informed enough to comment on how companies are breaking laws with self driving vehicles.

        To me AI is like a hugely complex and unpredictable gun that is made with illegal materials including a little methamphetamine, a little plutonium, the formula for Coca Cola. So while the databases and software of generative AI aren’t illegal per se, they can contain copyrighted/illegal materials and output the same. If a gun would just as likely stab you in the leg as shoot forwards it probably wouldn’t be legal to own, sell, or operate.

        I would argue that self-driving vehicles are a public nuisance because the creators are allowed to release 3,000 pound masses of machinery, sensors, and software on public roads with public drivers and no one seems to take responsibility when it breaks laws that humans have to abide by.

        Also I think is partially because of the langued used. “AI” is a concept that doesn’t belong to anyone. Dario Amodei, the ceo of Anthropic should be getting much more heat for the crappy things his company has done. (Anthropic is just the first AI company I thought of, I’m not referring to any specific action here)

      It’s like we live in a police state and the state, which is the police, is lying to you about what the actual narrative of what is going on in the world is, which anyone with an eigth grade reading level who has read The New Testament would know that’s part of how the decentralized autonomous organization of secret police operates in the occident.
