What I hate is that this entire line of reasoning has led to the utter nerfing and hamstringing of a lot of LLMs. Have we as humans regressed so much that we can’t expect and teach people basal reasoning and personal responsibility?
Like, if a navigational system says ‘turn left here’ and there is a ravine on your left, is your death really the responsibility of the company that created the navigational system?
- bsaul 3y agoI've seen a few examples on youtube of people following the GPS to their own peril ( the last one being, driving in the sea directly) However, the confusion i think comes from the fact that GPS is 99% of the time better than you at picking the correct road to reach a destination. The problem with all those systems is that they're better than you 99% of the time, and they fail miserably in that last 1%. Makes it totally unsuitable for anything of importance i think ( same reason why GPS is fine, yet automatic driving isn't there yet).
- bombcar 3y agoPeople have died following GPS off the “main roads” - it has no intelligence to say it doesn’t know what to do or if the roads are passable. So now it always gives you a warning that it doesn’t know; which everyone promptly ignores because it comes up every time. I suspect we’re about ten years from any GPS navigation device being required to have a PLT or similar like the iPhone now has.
- oceanplexian 3y agoNo one died because of GPS, they died because they were idiots. The cause of death would always be reported as “operator failed to control their vehicle” not “the electronic map killed them”. People have driven off cliffs or crashed while not paying attention long before GPS was invented.
- bombcar 3y agoThe ones I know of are “driver kept going down worse and worse roads until the vehicle got stuck and they died awaiting rescue”. Of course that happened with paper maps and the person is always somewhat to blame, but we do a lot to preserve idiots alive.
- zeroonetwothree 3y agoPeople have died following advice from other humans too, and I would guess far more often
