Okay this is a weird philosophy to have lol
- anthonypasq 2y agono it isnt, its how everything in society currently operates. We put dangerous people in jail away from everyone else
- itishappy 2y agoThe crime of the "dangerous people" in OP's statement was loneliness and suggestibility.
- baobabKoodaa 2y agoAnd it's not OpenAI's job to safetify the world for gullible loners.
- itishappy 2y agoWho else can? OpenAI makes the tool. Are you suggesting we need government intervention or just saying "damn the consequences"?
- baobabKoodaa 2y agoSociety can't be built with the idea that everything has to work for the most troubled and challenging individuals. We build cars, even though some alcoholics drive drunk. We could make cars safer for them by mandating a steering wheel lock with breathalazyer for every car, but we choose to not do that because it's expensive. We have horror movies, even though some people really freak out from watching horror movies, to the point where they have to be placed in mental asylums for extended periods of time. We could outlaw horror movies to reduce the strain on these mentally troubled individuals, but we choose to not do that because horror movies are cool.
- incahoots 2y ago>Society can't be built with the idea that everything has to work for the most troubled and challenging individuals. But it is, nearly every product, procedure, process is aimed at the lowest common denominator, it's the entire reasoning warning labels exist, or fail safe systems (like airbags) exist.
- baobabKoodaa 2y agoIf every product or process was truly aimed at the lowest common denominator, then we wouldn't have warning labels on hot coffee, we would instead have medium-heated coffee.
- incahoots 2y agoThe label doesn't confirm if the coffee is hot, it warns that it might be.
- baobabKoodaa 2y agoMy point is that hot coffee is still being sold everywhere, even though we know for a fact that it's dangerous for our most vulnerable individuals. Mentally unstable people will sometimes spill coffee and when the coffee is hot it causes burns. If we really wanted to make coffee safe for our most vulnerable individuals, we would outlaw hot coffee, and just have medium-heated coffee instead. So the existence of "warning labels on hot coffee" is really evidence for my point, not evidence for your point.
- incahoots 2y agothen you would agree that warning labels are the lowest common denominator solution to a well known fact, vis-a-vis all processes, products, & procedures are aimed at the lowest factor.

- digging 2y ago> We put dangerous people in jail away from everyone else This is a very naive understanding of what prisons are and who goes in them and why.
