But they're still acting on the company's behest. If I hire a jerk to work tech support and they insult or cause damage to my customers, I don't get to say "shrug, they don't represent my company". Of course they do. They were on my payroll. I think it'd be pretty easy to argue that the AI was performing the duties of a contractor, so the company should be responsible for its misbehavior, just as if a human contractor did it.
- sodality2 2y agoDo you think that applies to open source models, or is it the act of performing inference that makes it an act the business is responsible for? ie, Meta's Llama does the same thing.
- mewpmewp2 2y agoBut with Character AI you are hiring a roleplay service which can be open ended in terms of what you are looking for. If you are looking to roleplay with a jerk, why shouldn't you be able to do that, and in such case why should the company be held liable?
