A law making AI companies responsible for their chatbots' output

You can sue the company for damages or bring them to small claims court even, if they give you bad information that materially harms you

The CEO can be tried criminally if the chatbot is implicated in a crime

If we're going to live in this LLM hellscape, I want some guardrails

If a computer is going to be making management decisions etc, the computer company and its CEO should be held responsible

@researchfairy
Minimally, they should simply have to be held to the same standard as an employee telling you it.

@researchfairy i've been waiting for another occasion to break out the pen and ink

[researchfairy@scholar.social]

@nev They *say* that emails get equal weight along with handwritten letters

But idk, I still sometimes do that too, just for the emphasis

[nev@status.nevillepark.ca]

@researchfairy I really need to practice my English round hand is all

[electricarchaeo@scholar.social]

@researchfairy this is excellent

[researchfairy@scholar.social]

@electricarchaeo Thank you!

@nev @researchfairy This exchange is so exquisitely relevant to me. Things associated with Michael: 1) contacting elected representatives, 2) using pen and ink, 3) wondering if that's *really* the best way to do a thing? 4) Oooh, an excuse to do something I want to do! 5) Jesus stop it with the AI, 6) What's going on in Canada?

Remember when the Americans tried to make a law stopping state legislatures from making AI regulations?

My proposal is probably some of the stuff that they were really anxious about stopping

Maybe if you're in California or something, you could get it passed there too? Idk how your government works

Good luck comrades

@researchfairy thank you, I'm sending a slightly modified version this to Solomon and my MP

[julien@social.grifdail.fr]

@researchfairy That last one is so good !

[researchfairy@scholar.social]

@julien The blog post? Or the last point in the blog post?

[julien@social.grifdail.fr]

@researchfairy Last point ! The one about keeping a log ! I've never seen it suggested before !

[researchfairy@scholar.social]

@julien It would solve some problems

[beandreams@friendhole.social]

@julien @researchfairy That one got me excited too. It would be helpful for so many reasons, but I could imagine justifying it just to help schools get a handle on plagiarism

[sundogplanets@mastodon.social]

@researchfairy Thank you for sharing!

[researchfairy@scholar.social]

@sundogplanets Hoping for some positive change
