You haven't met certain humans. Not all humans have internal capacity for accountability.
The real meaning of accountability is that you can fire one if you don't like how they work. Good news! You can fire an AI too.
- hun3 5mo agoBut it's still a bit more difficult to sue them for leaking your company's data. At least for now.
- pessimizer 5mo agoBad news! They will not be aware that you have done this and will not care.
- Zak 5mo agoThe purpose of firing a person shouldn't be vengeance but to remove someone who is unreliable or not cost effective. It's similarly reasonable to drop a tool that's unreliable, though I don't think that's a reasonable description here. Instead, they used a tool which is generally known to be unpredictable and failed to sandbox it adequately.
- bigstrat2003 5mo agoThe purpose of firing a person is to remove someone unreliable, but also, the person having that skin in the game makes him behave more reliably. The latter is something you cannot do with an LLM. The cold hard fact is: LLMs are an unreliable tool, and using them without checking their every action is extremely foolish.
- jumpconc 5mo agoThe AI company has skin in the game which motivates them to produce reliable AIs.
- justinclift 5mo agoDoesn't seem to be working though. :(
- dabinat 5mo agoCan you actually sue Anthropic over this when they clearly state that AI can make mistakes and you should double-check everything it does?
- jumpconc 5mo agoYou can fire Anthropic. Anthropic can decide it's losing too many customers and do something about it.
- justinclift 5mo ago> do something about it. Pump more $$$ into marketing? ;)
- lukan 5mo ago"The cold hard fact is: LLMs are an unreliable tool, and using them without checking their every action is extremely foolish." You mean checking every action of theirs outside the sandbox I suppose? Otherwise any attempt at letting an agent do some work I would consider foolish.
