Maybe there should be consequences if you sell bad software that has bad consequences ? There are a lot of greedy bastards that will knowingly sell bad stuff but minimize the issues, why not have good standards like real professionals and say scientists where they need to prove that the thing they discovered is correct with a big confidence level. With AI there is no proof that it works correctly or the sell department is bullshitting a ton of claims.

- simion314 6y agoI will disagree, there was a guy here on HN that was promoting his shit software, it had a demo page where it would detect your IP and show you a list of all torrents you downloaded. I checked it and I am 100% sure it was garbage in my case. I am imagining this type of people that maybe have some connections or some money to get this shit software sold and innocent people getting threaten that they downloaded copyrighted or illegal stuff, that would cause a lot of suffering and drama in a family. I hope you do not make the point that the seller has the "capitalistic obligation" to misrepresent his shit and the buyers have the duty to triple check. There should be strong laws, like if your software promised something that is not true in real world situation then the people that sold it should pay, no loopholes.
