- SoftTalker 9mo agoMaybe, but they would likely offer an insanity defense.
- mikkupikku 9mo agoCharles Manson died in prison.
- chazfg 9mo agoAnd this has famously worked many times
- k7sune 9mo ago[flagged]
- o_nate 9mo agoEncouraging someone to commit a crime is aiding and abetting, and is also a crime in itself.
- AkelaA 9mo agoWell, LLMs aren't human so that's not relevant.
- _trampeltier 9mo agoHm, I don't know. If an automatic car drives over a person, or you can't just write any text to books or the internet. If writing is automated, the company who writes it, has to check for everything is ok.
- super256 9mo agochecks notes Nothing. Terry A. Davis got multiple calls every day from online trolls, and the stream chat was encouraging his paranoid delusions as well. Nothing ever happened to these people.
- mbesto 9mo agoHuman therapists are trained to intervene when there are clearly clues that the person is suicidal or threatening to murder someone. LLMs are not.
- nkrisc 9mo agoThey’d likely be held culpable and prosecuted. People have encouraged others to commit crimes before and they have been convicted for it. It’s not new. What’s new is a company releasing a product that does the same and then claiming they can’t be held accountable for what their product does. Wait, that’s not new either.
