Because that’s murder, and contrary to a health insurance company denying claims, Sam Altman just sucks, but hasn’t killed anyone (yet) (that we know of).
I’m sorry that I called you stupid. That was wrong of me and you didn’t deserve that.
If you’re interested, I could explain to you why your comment that I initially responded to was a false equivalence, and why claiming that I was stifling your free speech is nonsensical. Let’s talk it out and maybe both of us can walk away from this having learned something. :)
My point is that chatbots, and other LLM applications, are useful tools that in isolated cases have caused people to become addicted and other harmful effects, including deaths.
The same can be said of many other things, from parasocial relationships with celebrities, tools like heavy machinery, aircraft, medicine with side effects, gyms, and a long list of others. People become obsessed, addicted and in certain cases even die. Or the tool fails and kills them.
The solution shouldn’t be to immediately ban them and accuse the CEO of murder (super specific legal definition, btw) but try to regulate, add guardrails, make it safer and help the victims however they need. Sure, let’s investigate each death and see if there has been negligence, but pitchforks are not the solution.
If you manufacture a knife that convinces children to kill themselves, yeah, you’re culpable. Everyone else can be charged according to their level of culpability, but any time a company is found liable for killing someone the CEO should be sentenced for their murder. Maybe that would incentivize CEOs to stop getting people killed.

I mean creating a product that exacerbates psychosis to the point that people kill themselves I would say meets that standard.
So every movie director, game designer, Popstar, etc also deserves to die?
If you are unable to understand why those things are different, then you probably shouldn’t comment at all.
Free speech! As long as you agree with me…
Very trumpian
No I’m not saying that you’re not allowed to comment. I’m just saying that your takes are stupid and that you probably shouldn’t.
Same a trump.

Sure, I’ll be happy to.

Several teens have been groomed into killing themselves by ChatGPT.
He’s culpable.
Is the developer also culpable? How about the data scientist? How about the data engineer? How about the BI Analyst? And the janitor?
How about the manufacturer of the knife / pill / gas they used to kill themselves?

What about a knife that does the sliicng of the body, the killing itself?
I don’t think there’s a difference. Children are not culpable, which means grooming children to kill themselves is murder.
