The chat bots might be allowed to say bad words.

  It seems silly, but that's an insightful remark. AI systems mis-identifying people and getting them arrested - minor problem. Systems firing people for underperforming - that's just a company exercising its right to enforce "at-will employment". Chatbots designed to make it difficult or impossible to cancel a service - almost standard. Announcing a hiring freeze while jobs are replaced with AI systems - that's productivity. But a system that will answer "Rank races by intelligence" gets people very upset.

    `rm -rf /` could be a set of 'bad words' too. Or `shred -uf /dev/sda`

      Or every influential villain in history. Hitler and Goebbels didn't use their fists to kill millions of people.

  A cyber attack that publicizes your patient records database or wipes your production configs are also "bad words" if you type them in a terminal.
